I have had the adventure using sheeps casings a few times now. each time the endeavor has gotten easier BUT HOW I MISS STUFFING KIELBASA compared to these tiny little fragile BAST88DS !!!!
i have also notice i am making larger batches so i dont have to raise my bloodpressure so high... as often ... ha haha
being 6'8" and 350lbs doesnt exactly give me a surgeons hands ... ha ha ha
but as i stated ... practice makes perfect. i had a lot of help in the earlier batches from Boykjo, even had some of his spice blend. now i soldier on alone in my basement with grinder, food processor and stuffer making the elusive FRANKFURTERS...
they are in the smoker as i type this out. it is a long drawn out process with the multiple grinding, emulsifying, stuffing, smoking and then finishing off in the hot water !!!!! AND DID I MENTION THE CLEAN UP .... THE DREADED CLEAN UP .......
anyways i will be having a real treat for dinner Monday as a friend is trading me a load of homemade sauerkraut for some franks ....
no pics as i have already done a complete thread on this before ... JUST NEEDED A VENT ... HA HA HA
