After scouring Starbucks’ website and menu, the first clue revealed that their sausage patties are made from pork.

Finally, the moment of truth arrived. I took a big bite of my homemade sausage patty and was thrilled that the flavor profile was remarkably close to the ones I’ve enjoyed from Starbucks. The blend of savory spices and herbs mingled with the pork’s richness. Success at last!
