This is my take on New Orleans “Hot Sausage”. I came up with this recipe when I lived in Wisconsin a few years ago and wanted a taste of home.

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef or pork

3 tbsp Paprika

1 1/2 tbsp Tony Chachere's seasoning

1/2 tsp chili powder

2 tbsp cayenne pepper

1 tsp crushed peppers

1 tbsp garlic powder

1 tbsp onion powder

1/3 cup cooking oil

Directions

For more "heat" add more crushed peppers and cayenne pepper.

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix by hand until everything is well mixed together.

Form into "hamburger" patties and fry as you would a hamburger in a pan over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until browned and cooked. 

This may be served on hamburger buns, white bread, but its best served on French bread dressed with mayo, lettuce, tomatoes, and ketchup. Patties may be frozen, as well.
