What it is

A sausage patty is a ground meat product, typically made from pork, though other meats like beef or poultry can be used. The meat is seasoned with spices, salt, and sometimes sugar, then formed into a flat, round shape and cooked. It is often pre-cooked for convenience in further food preparation.

Why it's used

Sausage patties are primarily used as a breakfast meat, often served alongside eggs or in breakfast sandwiches. Manufacturers include them for their savory flavor and protein content. They are a common ingredient in frozen breakfast meals, biscuit sandwiches, and other prepared breakfast items.

Health notes

Sausage patties are regulated by the FDA as a raw or processed meat product. The health implications are generally related to the nutritional content of the meat, such as saturated fat and sodium, which are often high in processed meats. High intake of processed meats has been associated with increased risk of certain chronic diseases in some studies, while other reviews suggest the evidence is mixed. The WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified processed meat as a Group 1 carcinogen, meaning there is sufficient evidence that it causes cancer in humans, specifically colorectal cancer.

Allergen info

Sausage patties are not typically derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. Gluten is also not usually present unless added as a binder or filler.
