🍅 Sausage & Summer Skillet on Sourdough

A Rustic Road favorite made with the best of the season!

🧑‍🍳 Ingredients:

1 medium eggplant, diced

1/2 candy onion, sliced

5 red fingerling potatoes, cut into thirds

2 cloves Rustic Road garlic, minced

1 lb Italian sausage

1 pint Rustic Road marinara

1/2 cup water

Handful of fresh basil, chopped or torn

Sheep’s milk ricotta salata, shaved or crumbled

Slices of Malgorzata’s sourdough, toasted and brushed with olive oil

Olive oil for cooking

🔥 Directions:

In a large skillet, heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat.

Add the diced eggplant, onion, and potatoes. Sauté for 10–12 minutes, until they begin to soften and lightly brown.

Stir in garlic and cook 1 more minute.

Add sausage and cook until just browned, breaking it up as it cooks.

Pour in marinara and water. Stir and let simmer for 10–15 minutes until potatoes are fork-tender and the sauce is thickened.

Toast sourdough slices and brush with olive oil.

Serve the sausage skillet over toasted sourdough. Top with fresh basil and a generous sprinkle of ricotta salata.
Huge thank you to Malgorzata for sharing her wonderful sourdough with us. It was amazing!

The countdown is ON! ⏳. Rustic Road Farm’s local, organic sweet corn will be ready in one or two weeks —and trust us, it’s worth the wait. Our corn is grown right here in Elburn, hand-harvested, and famously sweet, juicy, and delicious. Best corn around! We don’t say that, our customers do, and we agree 😀. You will find it at our different markets: Wheaton, Batavia, La Grange, and at our farm store.

AMERICAN WAGYU FROM RUSTIC ROAD FARM

We are offering four sides of our own F1 Wagyu beef raised on our farm.

These four halves are over 30 months of age at harvest and are dry aging four weeks! It will be the best beef we have ever offered and sure to be the best beef in your freezer.

All halves are hanging weight between 490 & 510 pounds and sure to be well marbled.

It has been raised on alfalfa and finished on NON-GMO grains from Wisconsin. No antibiotics in their feed and no growth hormones.

It is expensive to purchase the calves, to feed the cattle, and to care for them and the price reflects it.

If you interested please send us a message or stop by one of our markets to discuss. They will be ready to cut in ten days.

Welcome to our 25-acre farm that's growing organic produce, heirloom pigs and goats.

Due to the weather the market is closing.

Be safe everyone! If you missed your CSA please message us for pickup options.

Thanks for understanding

The search for the cattle is over! The last two were wrangled this morning!

Check out the drone flight path from Mike Smith of SmithicAir

We have so many people to be thankful for returning all the cattle including Mike, Wes & Chet from 2B Wild Cattle Catching Service, Kane County Sheriff’s, Hazis Azemi, the Maple Park farmers who came to help, and the friends of Rustic Road.

You saved us. And we are forever grateful

PEEK-A-BOO

We see you!

And you’re coming home tomorrow morning and going straight to your room!

Many thanks to Mike from SmithicAir for his relentless pursuit of our cattle.

With the storms headed our way and wranglers two hours from here we decided it was safer for everyone to wait until the morning.

Cross your fingers they stay in place
