Gilmer's Hot Breakfast Sausage (Avg Weight 1.0 lb pk / 16oz)
The "Wake Up Call" — Southern Spice in Every Bite. For those who believe breakfast shouldn't be boring. Sourced from our partners at North Georgia Meat Company (NGM) in Gilmer County, this is the fiery sibling to our classic mild sausage. It starts with the same premium foundation: Heritage breed pork that offers superior moisture and a deeper, meatier flavor than commercial brands. We then dial up the intensity with a bold blend of crushed red pepper flakes and cayenne, balanced against the savory notes of sage. It isn't "burn your tongue" hot, but it delivers a consistent, warming kick that cuts through the richness of the pork fat, waking up your palate instantly.
Why It’s a Staple: It is the essential ingredient for the ultimate Sausage Gravy. The heat from the red pepper infuses into the cream gravy, creating a savory, spicy topping that transforms plain biscuits into a masterpiece. It also holds its own in a breakfast casserole, ensuring the meat flavor isn't lost among the eggs and cheese.
The Specs:
-
Brand: Standing Stone (in partnership with NGM)
-
Cut: Breakfast Sausage (Hot Seasoning)
-
Source: North Georgia Meat Company (Gilmer County, GA)
-
Diet/Breed: Heritage Breed Pork
-
Portion Size: Avg 1.0 lb Pack
💡 The Chef’s Method: The "Crumble and Cream" Technique.
-
The Pan: Use a cast iron skillet. Get it medium-hot.
-
The Break: If using bulk sausage, use a wooden spoon to break the meat into small crumbles as it browns. You want maximum surface area for crispy edges.
-
The Fond: Let the meat get dark golden brown. This creates the "fond" on the bottom of the pan—the key to good gravy.
-
The Flour: Do not drain the fat. Dust equal parts flour over the cooked sausage and fat. Stir and cook for 2 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste (making a roux).
-
The Finish: Slowly whisk in whole milk until thickened. Season with black pepper (you probably won't need salt).
-
Target Temp: 160°F Internal.
