Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground pork
  • 1-1/4 tsp. ground sage dried
  • 1 tsp. sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp. fennel omit for AIP
  • 1/8 tsp. ground cloves
  • 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp. onion powder
  • olive oil

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine all dry spices: sage, salt, fennel, cloves, black pepper, and onion powder. Stir until well mixed. 

  2. In a medium bowl, add ground pork and seasoning blend. Use hands to gently mix until meat is seasoned.
