This was great. The guys loved it. My DH had over bought sausage, and was wanting something different for breakfast. This just fit the bill. we ate it with scrambled eggs and it was delicious!

Interesting variation on the meat-in-a-bun theme. Can't wait to experiment with different sausages. Thanks.
