redkneck Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Wanted to try something a little different, me and my bud had some last day of the season success so I figured why not make summer sausage? First take one of these Add thirty percent fat and grind twice, second time in the fine plate (takes forever) Stir in some goodies And stuff Smoked a few hours and iced down. Turned out pretty good, a little damp, may use some pork butts next go around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Made plenty of sausage, but never tried making summer sausage. Usually add cheap bacon or fat trimmed from pork loins. A meat mixer would sure be handy to have. Yep, fine plate grinding is slow process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkneck Posted February 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Yeah I've been wanting a mixer, since I've went last year or so from casual burger grinder to full out processing. I've heard they were great, I've heard they weren't worth the clean up time, idk. I do need a GOOD vac sealer though, the Wally world one I have don't cut it. Good vacuum just not a great sealer.

wtnhunt Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 On our second food saver, first one came from Sams club and lasted probably 5 years. Still worked but had trouble pulling good vacuum. Put up a lot from garden and meat with it. Only way as far as i am concerned to package meat going in the freezer.
