Sounds interesting! I have found I really like a spicy sausage. I haven't tried any beef ones yet. We'll have to make some this summer!

Those look fabulous, Ahron. Sounds like they have a serious kick with lots of harissa in them! Have you ever made those with lamb?

I was under the impression that merguez only referred to the lamb sausage of Morocco. But that's one of the great things about forums like this; we never stop learning from each other.

i just realized that i have everything for this - including, at the moment, fresh cilantro. i do have some harissa (thanks, brook!) but for the amount specified, i may make my own.
 
I might mix all this up as a spice mixture or rub, then add it to the next good, lean montana ground beef that we get from some local ranchers ~ or maybe grind some venison....
 
in any case, this might be a great way to use a sausage maker that i have, that does breakfast-link-diameter sausages.

Thanks!
