ALLIGATOR SAUSAGE
by GingerMissouri
COMMENT:
Alligator is a lean white meat. So it needs additional fat added to it to make a decent textured sausage.

INGREDIENTS
- INGREDIENTS:
- 2 pounds ground alligator
- 2 pounds ground pork
- 1/2 pound ground pork fat
- 1/4 cup chopped onions
- 1/4 cup chopped celery
- 1/4 cup diced garlic
- 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 1/4 cup sliced green onions
- 1/4 cup chopped sage
- 1/4 cup chopped basil
- salt and black pepper ; to taste
- Louisiana Gold Pepper Sauce ; to taste
- 15 feet casing for stuffing
INSTRUCTIONS
METHOD:
In large mixing bowl, combine all of the above ingredients with the
exception of the casing. Add one cup of ice water to the mixture and
using both hands, blend the ingredients well. Continue to mix in a
rolling motion until the fat content of the pork coats the surface of
the mixture. This is imperative if the sausage is to be moist and
juicy since alligator by nature is quite dry. Once the ingredients are
well blended, you may wish to check the seasonings by sauteing a small
patty in a frying pan. Correct seasonings if necessary. Stuff the
sausage mixture in the hog casing and tie off in six inch links. To
cook, poach the sausage in lightly salted water for three to five
minutes. Grill over pecan wood or bake in a 375 degree F oven until
golden brown, approximately ten to twelve minutes.
PREP TIME: 1 Hour
MAKES: 25-6 inch links
