I’ve been getting ground pork for $1.49 lb until recently Fred Meyer raised the price to $1.99 lb but it’s still cheaper than Jimmy Dean or something similar, without the additives.
We like sausage in our chili. Usually we use Jimmy Dean or Bob Evans. I will try your recipe next time.
I started doing that when my wife was pregnant and needed to reduce her sodium intake. I of course omitted the salt, and salted my own once it was cooked.
