Bun size turkey breakfast sausage?

Seriously... where do you find this? I've been trying to go back to breakfast sandwiches and make my own, but I can't for the life of me find breakfast sausage that is normal PATTY size.. even less turkey sausage.
I splurged on a box yesterday, it said 4 patties and the box was pretty big... still tiny ridiculous patties (I feel ripped off). I had to play puzzle to make two of them fit in my flatbread. Such a PITA.
Suggestions?
ETA - I've tried making my own sausage - tasted like seasoned ground meat... not really something I want for breakfast. So unless someone has an awesome recipe to make my own, I'm a bit stuck, lol.

When I ate sausage, I would get the brands that are rolled (they look like this) and then shape them the size I want, and make them larger than bun size so they shrink down to the correct size.0

Yeah, I bought it in one pound bulk rolls and then made them the size I want.
Turkey breakfast sausage in bulk packages is in the freezer section in my store with the other breakfast stuff. It's cheaper that way than pre-portoined, too!
There are several brands, they all taste a little different. Butterball is good. Jennie O is good, too.0 -

No answer, but the pun above made me laugh.9 -
I had to google breakfast sausage - and it isn't necessarily in sausage shape, it can also be a small hamburger - you learn something new every day! So. If you want larger hamburgers, can't you just buy normal sized hamburgers?0

Does it have to be turkey, or are you interested in chicken breakfast sausage? I've seen and used quite a few of those patties. They are pretty good and lean.0

I can't remember seeing bulk turkey sausage, but I'll look (I know I DID buy some once, but I think it was pork).
I'm fine with chicken too, just no luck there either.0 -
You might have some luck at a local meat market. They'd shape them and weigh them for you too.2

i buy the jones chicken or turkey breakfast sausage patties. little bit smaller than an english muffin but not to bad.0
-
Buy a 1 lb bulk package and make patties the size you prefer.0

Ask someone in the meat department.0

I had to go to another store and found some. Unfortunately, my bun sized patties are a fail, I didn't realize that they would shrink that much in the oven, and I couldn't make them too thin because they were disintegrating... My patty shaping skills are not good. They'll still be eating, obviously...
So, I'm still looking. Sigh.0 -
I actually buy lean 93/7 Turkey and make my own. It's not hard. Just season and let sit over night covered. This way, you can make any flavor profile you like.0

These are breakfast sausages.
Anything patty shaped is an abomination in the eyes of Thor, anything made of Turkey is an abomination in the eye of Odin, anything cooked in an oven is an abomination in the eyes of Freyja

Buy raw sausages, formed into patties you like and cook. Problem solved
But that's the thing though, I can't seem to make them thin enough for them to actually keep their shape (so I ended up with small fat patties instead of what I was going for).psychod787 wrote: »I actually buy lean 93/7 Turkey and make my own.

I tried that, but it tasted like seasoned ground turkey, not sausage. I have absolutely no clue what it is that makes sausage different.0 -

Well.... you have to let the mixture sit a while. Add some water to your meat when you add the spices. I used to make REAL sausage years ago. It's just a matter of letting the seasoning take effect. Also look into Morton's tender quick. It's a curing salt. Adds that cured flavor to meats.0 -
I think most of them are english muffin sized, not burger bun sized. Have you considered switching your bread instead and having 2 if youre still hungry?
Also. You said you needed two in your flatbread and said it was a PITA. I giggled. That is clever. Pita, flatbread... get it... did you do that on purpose or was it a pleasant pun?0 -
Use smaller buns? 😂0

I'm finding it really hard not to make a joke about big buns and my sausage............4

Save-a-lot has a brand of frozen turkey sausage that fit just fine on my whole wheat English muffin.... WHEN they have them. They don't always carry them and it's really annoying when you get home and realize you have the full fat pork ones but eat them anyway and throw your numbers all wonky for a week. That's probably a testament to my laziness more than anything else. How did I get so heavy again? hahahah0

Use the cookie cutters in the size you want.
Press the meat down to the thickness you want or need.
Freeze the meat.
Cook them from frozen in a pan or an oven.
Exactly how I do my tuna, salmon or shrimp burgers. Cook fast, hold their shape and are easy to throw together.
I actually made some shrimp sausage a while back. Uses Cajun seasoning... actually quite good.0 -
I make my own turkey sausage. I use the recipe below and it is fantastic. It tastes like actual sausage. I press it into whoopie pie pans and bake for 15 minutes. They come out the perfect size for hamburger buns. Note: The whoopie pie pan makes great breakfast egg patties, too. In fact, I sometimes cook the crumbled sausage in a pan and add it to my egg patties along with chopped spinach, peppers and cheddar cheese.
