01
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, bread crumbs, beef broth, brown sugar, and all the spices—onion powder, salt, pepper, coriander, nutmeg, and allspice. Mix everything together well until it’s fully combined. Take a small handful of the mixture and shape it into a couple of small patties to cook, then pop the rest in the fridge.
02
Step 2
Heat a bit of oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook the patties for about 3 to 5 minutes on each side until they’re nicely browned and cooked through. Be careful not to overcook them, or they’ll get dry. You can check that they’re done by making sure the internal temperature hits 160°F (70°C).

Step 3
Give the cooked patties a taste, and if you think the seasoning needs a little boost, go ahead and add more salt, pepper, or spices to the uncooked mixture. Once you’re happy with the flavor, press the rest of the sausage mix firmly into loaf pans and chill in the fridge for a couple of hours until they’re firm.

Step 4
When the loaves are set, take them out of the pans and slice them into half-inch thick pieces. You can separate the slices with some plastic wrap and keep them in the fridge if you plan to cook them within a few days.

Step 5
To cook the slices, just heat them up in a skillet over medium-low heat, just like you did with the patties, until they’re browned and cooked through. Enjoy!
