Recipe type: appetizers
 
Ingredients
  • 3 cups (or 29 ounces) of fresh ground pork
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 tablespoon toasted fennel seed
  • 1 cup good natural casing, cupping pepperoni
  • 1 cup bacon crumbles
  • ΒΌ cup extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
  1. Mix the ground pork with all the seasonings in a bowl.
  2. Place the pepperoni, bacon and extra virgin olive oil in a pan and toss together.
  3. Roast in your pizza oven at 475 F for 3 to 4 minutes until the pepperoni is leaching juices into the oil and is just getting crisp around the edges.
  4. Pull from oven and let cool.
  5. Place the pepperoni/bacon mix in a container and mix on high with an immersion blender or into a food processor and grind until it looks like a chunky sauce. (You can add some of the pork mix to get the immersion blender going.)
  6. Add the pepperoni/bacon mix to the sausage and mix well with your hands.
  7. Place in refrigerator overnight to meld flavors.
  8. When ready to use on a pizza, pinch quarter-sized chunks off and place on top the cheese.
  9. This sausage mix will leach the most incredible juice onto the pizza causing you to grunt just like Frankenstein
