Time 2h55m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ pound ground beef
½ pound ground pork
5 cloves garlic, minced
⅛ cup vegetable broth
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground thyme
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Combine ground beef, ground pork, garlic, broth, salt, coriander, cumin, thyme, pepper, and baking soda in a large bowl. Mix until everything is well combined. Cover bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, best overnight. Do not skip this important step, because it increases the flavor and ensures that the meat comes out tender.
  • Form meat into cylinder-shaped sausages, about 3 inches long and 1 inch thick, with wet hands (this prevents the meat from sticking to your fingers).
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Grill sausages on the preheated grill, carefully turning after about 4 to 5 minutes. Only flip them if they come off easily. Grill on the other side until cooked through about 3 more minutes.
