- 1 lb ground pork
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp dried sage
- ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional for heat)
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (optional for a hint of sweetness)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
Instructions 🍽️
1. Mix the Ingredients 🥣
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork with all the seasonings and maple syrup (if using). Mix well until fully incorporated.
2. Form the Patties 🍔
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape them into small, round patties about ½-inch thick.
