Had my oldest son and his family over yesterday and we made up some summer sausage. It was his first time ever making sausage and he was very interested! We used a 5lb. tube of 80/20 ground chuck, mixed in the seasonings and cure, then got out the stuffer and I taught him how to rinse out the casings, put them on the stuffer, load it, stuff the sausage, and then he did all the cleanup. Then we put it in the smoker:
and by the time we'd made some foil potatoes and grilled a couple sirloins, the sausage was done just in time for them to take a lot of it home and enjoy the fruits of his labor!
