Does anyone make their own landjager? I've never made any dry cured sausage before so I'm looking for some helpful hints. I've searched the internet and have Rytek Kutas's book and video but I'm just looking for a first hand proven recipe/procedure.

I love Landjager but the process is so intense, I don't have the patience to make it over a few days or the dehumidafier to do it correctly
Good luck and i would love to be your taste tester
On a side note, I brought a bunch on our WY. antelope trip and Ribka loved it. He never had it before.

What makes me nervous is that he's using my Elk to practice on.

I have never tried any dry cured sausage. I don't have the resources to control the temp and humidity accurate enough. From what I have read, that is very important.

There is a German Deli in Seattle that makes most of those specialty sausages, cheeses, deli meats and other things. They have all the nessisary equipment to make it.
Most German Deli's in the state get them from them. Very few places actually make it them self. Even the deli in Leavenworth gets there meats from them, along with the German Deli in Lakewood and Federal Way

Dan
I have not made this stuff myself dont really care for it But I have a buddy who does a decent job of making it he mixes the meat and pre mixed seasoning for landjager and stuffs into hog casings he stuffs them loosely then he lays them on a rack in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours then he smokes them just like any other sausage they turn out pretty good he has used deer elk and antalope they all turn out good

I'm in the middle of my first batch. I made 10 lbs (6.5 lbs elk/3.5 lbs pork shoulder) and used a pre-mixed blend from
Butcher Packer
. I'm going to smoke this batch until it reachs 152 deg F so I used (2) tsp of instacure #1. I like a little heat with all my other sausage I make so I added 1-1/2 tbsp of cayenne. It is kind of tricky getting the correct loose fill you need in the casing and keeping the air out. I used my pricker a lot. I used two cutting boards to get them flat. I'm keeping them in the refer overnight and will smoke them tomorrow. After they are smoked, I'm going to continue to dry them in a humid refer. I will update this tomorrow after I pull them from the smoker.
Here are some pics of the process so far.

Here is the product after smoking. I smoked them real slow, it took almost 6 hrs, I stepped up the temp in the smoker from 110 to 160 until they reached 152 internally. They look and smell great but I'm not going to give them a taste test until they dry in the refer for a couple days. The batch started out at exactly 10 lbs and is just under 7 lbs now.

Lookin' good. Let us know how the finished product turns out.
I have always wanted to make it at home, but it seemed like such a specialized process.

Dan, I may be able to help you out with these some. My buddys does them and gots all the inside tips from Tuss! I think his landjager are better than tuss's, he uses a big door to flatten them, and stuffs the casings very loose, also leaves them all attached, and hangs for days in the garage after smoking.

I would like to hear all the tips. It sounds like he is doing the dry-cure process. I'm going to try that next. This batch was fully smoked/cooked.

I had my first sampling today and it was VERY tasty. It had good tangyness and heat but left no after taste.
