Polish Cheddar

[billythekidrock]

Last night we made 12.5 lbs of fresh Polish sausage. I added 1.5lbs of hi-temp cheddar cheese and ¾ cup soy protein powder and 2 cups of water.

Never heard of hi temp cheese before.  Where do you buy it, Safeway or something? 

That looks really good!!!

The only place I know to get it is the internet.

  looks good. Why the protein powder? Just more protein? Can you taste it?

I would be interested to know where to get this stuff as well. Do you adjust cooking time/temp etc?
I made my first batch of summer sausage this month, and cheese and jalapenos would be a great addition!

I get my hi temp cheese from Butcher Packer in Michigan but it can be found anywhere.  The soy powder acts like a binder.  Kind of like putting an egg in your meatloaf.  You cannot taste it.  I use powdered milk solids as well.

As stated above, you can find the hi-temp cheese online. Butcher-Packer, PS Seasonings, & Spokane Spice Company all carry hi-temp cheese and a variety of binders.

Hi-temp cheese does not melt at normal smoking/cooking temperatures. I like soy protien as it acts as a binder and it retains moisture which also helps to retain shape.
