denmo, the above Hot recipe is very good and one we use frequently. By using half the sage in the Sage recipe is more like the JD original. They are both very good.
These are from "Top Secret Recipes".........

1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon rubbed sage
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

I certainly agree.
I have used two of these recipes and I like them a lot. Not quite like Jimmy Dean's to my taster, but I actually like them better. Especially the hot one.
See what you think?
My guess is that upping the coriander a bit would be closer to Jimmy Deans, but I like these as they are.
Good luck and good smoking.
