We had ten pounds of pork shoulder leftover from the Venison Summer sausage we made. Didn't have any breakfast sausage in the freezer. I had Fassett's breakfast sausage spice already made up so I turned that ten pounds into patties.

Now we have sausage.


Smoke away!!!
 
Yep forgot to paste the recipe in.

3/4 cup salt (167 grams)
1/2 cup black pepper (60 grams)
1/2 cup sage (28 grams)

1 tablespoon per pound of meat. This batch I added a big heaping tablespoon of garlic powder and onion powder too.

Exact same recipe I used on our last batch, except I used 1-1/2 tbsp of pepper flakes instead of garlic and onion powder. Don't even remember where I got it. Probably around here!
Gotta love the simple recipes...

Let me tell you this vac packer sucks! Sucks the socks right off your feet while you're using it that is! It's the Vacmaster Pro 380, purchased from Lisa at Vacsealers Unlimited. Perfect seal every time.


Can even suck & seal (2) 8" bags at a time!
 
Nice.. I'll put it on my list of things I need

thanks
 
Were ya surprized how excited you'd get over a sealer?  LOL....... It totally surprizes ya.
Congrats, looks like fun.

I've had a Vacsealer since I was 14. One of the first food saver units. It lasted until about 5 years ago and finally died. It worked great. Sealed thousands of pounds of fish and other meats. I was given a new food saver and it really did suck. Could only do 5-10 bags before it would overheat.

This thing is a beast! Just did 28 bags non stop.
 
My tilia vacuum saver is wore out...... I do like the hands free with my unit. You insert the bag and the hold down bar automatically comes down and then the vacuum starts..... When it first grabs you can move things around in the bag before it pulls the vacuum......,..... She has seen better days latley

Initially when the vacmaster starts up you need to hold the lid down (2-3 seconds). Once it gets going though you don't need to to. That's usually when I will load more bags or cut more bags, mark bags, etc.. I haven't timed it yet, but the whole process from start to finish isn't more than 20-30 seconds.
