I made sausage a few weeks ago and also made seasoned meatballs Cajun style . That means spicy but not too hot for normal people. 
 
My sausage making game is getting strong, as good or better than most stores here and we are the capital of awesome Cajun sausage. I'm not bragging, I'm impressed with the difference in measuring spices by the percentage of meat compared to just using a tsp or tbs. I'm gonna use that same  method when I made BBQ rubs.
I made a fricassee/roux based stew with potatoes. 
The meatballs were browned then removed and I added roux from a jar(Pookie) and cooked it down. 
Meatballs back in and simmered for 30-45 minutes before I added small cut up potatoes and simmered again till tender. I did have to add water along the way to thin it out as it cooked down, broth would've been better but not necessary with all this flavor and browning the meat.
 
Field peas, smothered greens, salad of toms, cukes, broccoli & cauliflower. AND Ranch!!
