For the best flavor, source your pork shoulder from a reputable butcher and ask for a coarse grind. Feel free to adjust the spices to your preference. A pinch of smoked paprika can add a delightful smoky note. These sausage patties can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days before cooking, or frozen for longer storage. Serve these patties with eggs, pancakes, or biscuits for a complete and satisfying breakfast.
