Breakfast Pizza
While I have you up and grilling sausages for breakfast, might as well take that a step further and turn those deliciously spiced patties into some extra special, breakfast pizza! While I was slightly apprehensive about what the results of this might be, it turns out that throwing an entire morning meal onto some grilled pizza dough is not only a great idea, it produces some incredible eats.

Breakfast Sausage
I go straight into hoarding mode at the first sign of cooling air. My summer freezer, once bare except a bag of ice and a container of homemade ice cream, starts filling with meats to get me through the fall and winter. One thing that's hard to live without during the cold winter months is a good breakfast sausage—perfect for a cold, lazy winter morning with some eggs and toast. Of course, whatever you don't freeze right away is prime for grilling while there's still light and the mornings are more brisk than frigid.

Chicken Sausage with Basil and Tomatoes
On my god, you're going to hate me. Remember how excited I was to get a 5-lb vertical stuffer for my birthday back in January? Well, in my small kitchen, I found a rather inconvenient place to store this giant and there is sat, unused all summer. I had every intention of using it way sooner, but it didn't happen, and I deserve the shame that comes with that. There's good news though, I finally busted it out and made some stellar sausages. Not these sausages in particular, but to be honest, this chicken sausages with basil and tomatoes were a bit better than what I made recently—actually these chicken sausages were some of the best I've ever made!

Spicy Roasted Poblano Sausage
I don't understand what's with all this bitchin' about mother-in-laws. I have no qualms with the in-laws—time spent with them are always occasions I look forward to. Not only do I get to go down to Texas and indulge in some of greatest Tex-Mex and barbecue known to man, I also sometimes return with gifts that are meant to win my heart. This year really took the cake though when I received a 5 lb vertical sausage stuffer. Know that I really meant what I said about loving the in-laws and that there is no need to buy my love, but c'mon, how freakin' sweet is it that my mother-in-law got me the sausage stuffer of my dreams. (Oh god, that sounded bad, didn't it?)

Another Year, Another Sausage
Being a creature of habit, I was comforted when an email arrived announcing that the Dr. Popsicle birthday would be returning for another year of bbq in Prospect Park. This event not only signifies the turning of age of its radical host, but also the one year anniversary of my first foray into sausage making. It seemed only fitting for me to take out the grinder and have another go, in the name of tradition and the good Dr.
