BASIC COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

Because Boulder Sausage is such a lean product, we recommend grilling for 15 to 18 minutes only at medium heat. For best oven cooking, we suggest using the broiler, also requiring 15-18 minutes. Sausage may also be browned in a frying pan and added as an ingredient to your favorite dishes.
