Breakfast Sausages - Cuisinart GR-4NAM - Griddler Instruction Booklet

Griddler ™ Function: Closed or Flat
Selelctor: Griddle
Plates: Griddle
Makes 10 sausage patties [about 1-3/4 ounces (50 g) each]
12 ounces (375 g) ground turkey (can use very lean)
4 ounces (125 g)lean ground pork
1/3 cup (75 ml) very finely chopped tart apple
1 tablespoon (15 ml) very finely minced onion
2 tablespoons (25 ml) chopped fresh parsley [1 tablespoon (15 ml) dried
parsley]
1 teaspoon (5 ml) rubbed sage
1/2 teaspoon (2 ml) thyme
1 teaspoon (5 ml) kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon (1 ml) freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon (1 ml) paprika
Place all ingredients in a medium bowl and mix as for meatloaf – mixing thor-
oughly to distribute the seasonings evenly. Unlike ground meat for burgers, which
should not be overmixed, it is important to completely mix the meat and season-
ings. Shape into ten patties of equal size [about 1-3/4 ounces (50 g) each, 1-1/2
to 2 inches (3.75x5 cm) in diameter]. This may be done the night before, or
sausage may be made ahead and frozen.
The sausage may be cooked using either the flat or closed griddle position. For
closed griddle cooking, preheat the Griddler
sausages evenly spaced on the hot griddle plate. Using the closed griddle, cook
the sausages for 4 to 5 minutes, until they have reached an internal temperature
of 170°F (77°C). This is a great, quick way to cook sausages for sausage biscuits
or other breakfast sandwiches.
To cook the sausages on the flat griddle, preheat the Griddler
In the flat griddle position, cook the sausages for 12 to 15 minutes total, turning
once after 6 minutes. Cooking in the flat griddle position allows you to cook
eggs or pancakes to accompany the sausages, either on one side of the Griddler
or when finished cooking the sausages.
