60 servings

  • 5 pounds ground beef
  • 0.25 cup mustard seed
  • 3 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 5 teaspoons sugar-based curing mixture (such as Morton® Tender Quick®)
  • 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon hickory-flavored liquid smoke

Instructions

  • Mix beef, mustard seed, garlic powder, curing mixture, pepper flakes, salt, cayenne, and liquid smoke together in a large bowl until well combined. Cover with plastic, and refrigerate for three days, mixing well once a day.
  • On the fourth day, preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (100 degrees C). Line a sheet pan with a wire rack.
  • Shape the mixture into five logs; place logs onto the wire rack.
  • Transfer the rack and sheet pan into the preheated oven and bake for 8 hours. Remove from the oven and transfer sausages to paper towels to cool. Let cool completely, about 1 hour, then wrap logs individually in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before slicing.
