We found a good deal on pork and beef and Doug found an old fashioned meat grinder at a garage sale. So of course, the natural result is home-made sausage.
He started with a simple summer sausage recipe from the little book included with the sausage making kit. The kit included casings for stuffing, a long filler tube and a pusher stick. First, he slides the casing onto the tube.
Then, using the pusher stick, he fills the casings with the seasoned meat. When the sausage casing is firm, Doug ties the top securely with the included string.
Now it's time for the fun part. We had a nice day with little wind and no rain forecast, so Doug fired up the smoker and loaded the six summer sausage into it.
They looked so professional hanging there neatly.
And the final result after a full day of smoking! OMG! Not only do they look beautiful but they taste wonderful. Another successful day. Wish you were here to share!
