McDonald's Sausage Patty Recipe
If you've ever wanted that same crispy-edged, well-seasoned sausage patty from McDonald's, this recipe is for you!The key to getting that distinct taste is using a mix of ground pork and a few unexpected seasonings.A little sage, black pepper, and sugar bring out that signature balance of savory and slightly sweet.I chill the patties before cooking so they hold their shape and get that signature seared crust.Pressing the patties down slightly while they cook helps mimic the thinner style from McD's.
