Looks really good Edge. You should reserve about a pound and a quarter of that and make a nice fatty with it.
Point for sure

Yes I did. Just nicer to use fresh but it still works great in stews and such.Did you put any Chile in the freezer Brian? I’d never make through winter without it.
Just now checked it out, it looked great!Hatch is perfect here, get after it. Did you catch my post about mashing and seasoning roasted Chile for table use and cooking? It’s delicious.

Thank you Chris, I was thinking about doing that with another batch and trying that fantastic bacon weave you do!Looks really good Edge. You should reserve about a pound and a quarter of that and make a nice fatty with it.

I’m glad you saw that. The great thing about mashing the Chile all together, besides the added flavors, is that every bag of Chile will be exactly the same flavor and heat level. This way you know exactly what you have and don’t get surprised.Just now checked it out, it looked great!
I think if I do a sausage I will turn my Hatch chilies into a paste using my Vitamix (everything must now be blended into oblivion hahahaha :P ) and then mix that into the sausage so the flavor is distributed really well.
I could also just do chopped chunks but again... the Vitamix plus it will take care of any stray seeds so I won't have to dig those not so edible things out :D
As far as I’m concerned meatloaf is a sausage, so you do make sausage, the fatty would fall in that category as well.I don't make sausage, but when I make meatloaf or chili. I run half of my veggies thru a food processor until they take on a fine relish thickness. The other half I finely dice. Then I add all of it into the mix. For me it distributes evenly throughout whatever I'm making.

I do agree on the relish type chop. I hand chop the Chile but I guess it’s more of half minced and half fine chopped. Roasted Chile has a tendency to get stringy when processed so I just do it by hand.
