Sausage Fest 2012
« on: December 21, 2012, 10:55:04 PM »
I have all of my venison that is not backstrap and tenderloin and a couple huge pork roasts thawing in the garage.  I have all of the grinder pieces and accessories freshly washed and drying, and all of the seasonings and casings ready to make some fresh sausage.

I will make 30 lbs of Italian Sausage, 25 lbs of Breakfast Sausage, 15 lbs of Summer Sausage, 25 lbs of Bratwurst, 15 lbs of bacon burger, and the rest into 1 lb ground meat packages for tacos, chili, etc.  I will post pictures tomorrow when I am done.

I want to thank DogTuk, for encouraging me, and giving me advice over the last couple years.  My family really loves the meat and the quality that doing it yourself provides.

Doing it yourself is a night and day difference. Last year my wife didn't want to touch it, this year we haven't eaten any meat from the store since Oct when I got my buck.

I have been doing it for a few years now, and have really branched out with what I am willing to try and make with it.  I still suck at cutting steaks, but they taste good!

Notice the small skillet in the upper part of the photo...All meat was cooked and tested prior to second grind and packaging to make sure we liked it.

Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

WT, I just used a kit from Hi-Mountain seasonings...it comes with everything except the meat.  They are in the smoker now!
