1/4-teaspoon salt
1/4-teaspoon pepper
1/2-teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons Morton's Tender Quick

Mix all ingredients well and shape into 1-lb logs. Roll each log in coarse black pepper, then wrap each log in aluminum foil and refrigerate for 24 hours. After 24 hours remove foil and bake in pans with racks (or bake on oven racks with a pan under the rack to catch drippings) in oven for 1 to 1 1/2 hours at 350 degrees. After the sausage cools refrigerate overnight allowing all flavors to blend well. Slice the logs into thin slices and serve with your choice of sauce of sauces or spreads. This sausage can be frozen.
