pearl river pastures / pastured pork ground mild italian sausage ~1lb

The Pastured Pork Ground Mild Italian Sausage from Pearl River Pastures—based in Poplarville, Mississippi—is loose, fresh-ground sausage seasoned with an A.C. Legg mild Italian blend. It delivers a classic, herb-forward Italian flavor with a prominent fennel note and zero heat.

Compared to conventional ground Italian sausage, it is superior because it is made from heritage breed hogs raised naturally on open pasture and woodland without antibiotics, added hormones, or GMO feeds. The pigs' natural foraging produces richer, well-marbled pork that carries the classic Italian herbs and spices without relying on artificial seasonings, fillers, or excess water weight.

Versatile and easy to work with, it can be browned and stirred into marinara or ragu, rolled into meatballs, or crumbled over pizzas and weeknight skillets. To prepare, thaw in the refrigerator overnight or use a cold-water bath for same-day cooking.
