Lots of meat!
« on: February 14, 2010, 09:26:50 PM »
Lots of meat!

Now that all the seasons are over (and it didn’t hurt to have a three day weekend) we got around to grinding most of our game meat from last season.  Most of the burger had a mixture of pork butt and beef suet added. The rest of the burger had 50/50 pork blend. There was a slight flavor difference and I think I preferred the beef suet blend. We also made a 30lb batch of Polish Cheddar sausage using a kit by Hi-Country. All in all we processed nearly 400lbs.

Prepping the casings by soaking and running water through them.



We used a universal stuffing tube kit and had to adapt multiple flanges but we never had a leak.



(We did try the 10mm tube but it would not push the meat through. Even though this is a commercial grinder I think we will need the high-speed stuffing auger to make pepperoni.)

It did work great with the larger tubes



30lbs of stuffed sausage.




Layering the game meat and pork/beef blend.



After we mixed the initial grinds we ran it back through for a second grind.



The burger is then packed into a pre-weighed container to make two pound packages.



Then we packed them 20 packages per tote.



At the end of the day we still had two 8lb+ pork butt roasts that were partially thawed. I took them home and made pulled pork in the oven. First I cut them in half and then I rubbed them with regular Johnny’s seasoning, Johnny’s Garlic seasoning and some brown sugar. Then I baked them at 275 degrees for seven hours. When it was finished I had 10.5 lbs of pulled pork.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Yes, it is a beast! It will suck in and spit out 5lb chunks of meat. You can put a closed fist in the throat/hopper.

I am wondering if the auger would fit since the square end of the worm drive is nearly a half inch x half inch.

Yes, they were frozen. If your fingers don't hurt then it is not cold enough.

That just made my day. I may have to run by and pick one up (or two). It seems that some of the online retailers are out.
