Equipment
- 1 Air-Fryer or Large Skillet

- ` Digital Food Thermometer, optional
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground pork
- 1 tablespoon rubbed sage
- 2 teaspoons salt

Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl combine all of your ingredients. You can do this the night before and refrigerate covered overnight OR make this all on the same day.

- Whether you cook them in the air-fryer or skillet, drain on a paper towel lined plate or with a slotted spoon.
- Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
