Re: Homemade Sausage
I'll use any moderately priced ($6-$9) cab/merlot/zin/syrah. I will open a bottle to drink and cook with.

Re: Homemade Sausage
:D
I've made that one a number of times and like it a lot!
In general, for a 5 lb. pork recipe, I use 4 pounds of pork shoulder and 1 pound of bacon.

Re: Homemade Sausage
Well, I totally hosed my current one by doing something REALLY stupid.
Put the grinding head and the feed screw in the dishwasher. Figured that should get them really clean. Pulled them out and the...

Re: Homemade Sausage
Yep.
So now it's time to upgrade my grinder. I am looking at this one.

Re: Homemade Sausage
Just an update.
I've made sausage a few times now. I'm still learning but the grinding/stuffing technique definitely requires practice.
My most recent effort this weekend was some chicken...

Re: Homemade Sausage

Re: Homemade Sausage
Thanks for the encouragement, Steve. I think you are right about the extra pair of hands when stuffing.
I did the coarse grind followed by the medium grind with the stuffer into the casing....

Re: Homemade Sausage
What a pain in the ass! I sure hope it is because I am new at this.
The grinding and seasoning went fine. Trying to stuff the casing without air pockets is impossible or just takes practice. Don't...

Re: Homemade Sausage
So I have a rookie question.
The pork shoulder (picnic) has a layer of skin along one side. Can I use that in my sausage? Or should it be removed?

Re: Homemade Sausage
Bought some pork shoulder (.99/lb) cubed it. Added salt pepper and garlic. Chilling overnight. Grinding tomorrow. Adding red wine and then stuffing into casing.

Re: Homemade Sausage
Actually no, Adam.
I was looking to start with regular sausage. Curing it may come later after some practice.
Thanks for the link.

Homemade Sausage
Has anyone here made their own sausage?
I am about to make my first attempt at it this weekend. (I finally found a local butcher who carries sausage casings.)
