but that is an awful lot of work...can I be a big buttinski and tell you how I do them? You are bang-on right BTW, these are a perfect lunchbag stuffer...also, cut into quarters they make a terrific party appetizer (goes great with beer, haha).

4 boiled eggs, peeled
1 roll Jimmy Dean Sausage (whichever flavor you currently have a hankering for)

Divide sausage in 4 even pieces, flatten each piece & form around an egg, sealing edges. Bake @ 350 deg. just until sausage is done but not so long it starts drying out (25 minutes? I just eyeball it).
Serve with your favorite mustard to dip (mine is deli horseradish mustard).

Thanks for letting me poke my nose in Heretic, keep on cookin'!
