My guess is that it would have too much fat overall. Since much of the fat
is in the belly, you just put that aside if it is more that you'd like.
Some commercial stuff is 40%, but I like 25%.

I'd make a half dozen varieties. Breakfast, Italian, Brats, liver,
kielbasa. From my web page you can find links to other places for more
information on recipes and suppliers of ingredients.
