In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, sage, Kosher salt, fresh ground pepper, marjoram, red pepper flakes, and ground cloves. Mix until well combined.
Add the ground pork to a medium-sized bowl and sprinkle the spice mixture over the pork. Mix with your hands until the spices are incorporated into the pork. Be careful not to over-mix the meat.
Form the pork into 8 or 10 equal size patties (depending upon how large you want them) and lay them out on a baking sheet. Make a small depression in the center of each patty using the back of a teaspoon or your thumb.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt on one side of the patties before cooking. HINT: You can cover the baking sheet with wax paper. This helps with clean up.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties until they are nicely browned and crispy on both sides, about 4- 5 minutes per side.
Test using an instant read thermometer to ensure they are cooked through. They should have an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
Continue to cook the patties in batches until done. Keeping the cooked ones warm in a 200F oven.
Serve warm by themselves or in a breakfast sandwich.
To store, allow to cool and refrigerate for a day or two. Reheat them in the microwave before serving. These also freeze well; place a piece of wax paper between the patties before freezing. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, and then heat and serve.
