Sausage
« on: February 21, 2015, 01:03:37 PM »
5 pounds of spicy Italian done, and 5 pounds of garlic jalapeno snack sticks ready for the smoker. First time using the new grinder and vertical stuffer. Wow, making sausage is way less of a chore than with the Kitchen Aid.

Nice setup! The links look great. What model is the LEM stuffer?

Not sure of the LEM model number (already packed away in the garage). It's the 5 pound with all metal gears. The grinder is a Cabela's 3/4 HP. Sticks turned out really good. A few hours of smoke in the Big Chief, and finished in the oven.

How long and what temperature did you use to finish in the oven.

275 until 155-160 degrees. Probably took 30 minutes.

Nice!  I have wondered how well those vertical stuffers work.  I'll need to try the 275 degree oven.  Last time I tried this my oven was set for around 200 and it took forever to get the internal temperature hot enough. 

Did you use deer, elk, beef?

50/50 Deer/Pork. The 275 was just what i used this time because we had dinner reservations. Otherwise I'd have done them lower/ slower. Although I don't know if it makes a difference. All I have for a smoker is a Big Chief, so when it's cool outside, I can't finish them in that.

A Perch,

Your experience sounds a lot like mine.  The Big Chief just didn't get hot enough.  I did a first time practice run with hamburger and I was glad I did.  The oven heated them too hot and they greased out.  The next time I was much more careful with the temperature and my deer/pork combo came out pretty good for a first try.  I use the stuffer attachment on my grinder and it doesn't seem so easy.  I like the idea of the vertical stuffer.

When I finish my sticks, or tubed meats in the oven, I go 275* and use a rolled up kitchen towel wedged in the door to keep the moisture down and to keep the grease/fat from melting out of the meat.

I gotta get one of those s stuffers. The kitchen aid one takes way to long. What skins did you use?
