    Cajun Green Onion Sausage

    OK, first impression. It's a good sausage. It definitely needs the cayenne pepper. The red pepper flakes alone give good flavor, but it lacks a little heat. Like I said, I don't want to burn my face off, but a little warmth would compliment the rest of the flavors. Next batch I'll use 1/2 the...

    Cajun Green Onion Sausage

    Hello all, Work has been chaotic, and working "on call" doesn't give me the ability to plan... But I have a medical procedure later today, so I've had the last few days off and thought I'd take advantage. I was in Texas a few weeks ago and went for a BBQ lunch... The restaurant offered a...

    Polish Dogs

    I'll look it up! I don't know how I missed it... I was going through the index in the "1001 sausage recipe" book and didn't see it. Ill pull out the green Bible and find it. Where was that shop in Wisconsin? I find myself there from time to time for work. If I can find parking for my 18 wheeler...

    Polish Dogs

    I've found plenty of polish sausage.... I'm looking for "polish dogs". Are they the same as kielbasa?

    Polish Dogs

    Hi all! It's been awhile since I've posted. Work has been crazy. Polish dogs aren't a "thing" in Missouri, so I decided to try my hand at making them. I couldn't find a recipe here, or in any of my Marianski books, so I used The Sausage Makers "polish sausage" mix. This was only my second...

    Olive and Pimento loaf

    Tell me about it! That's why I'm starting to make my own. It's still an investment (money and time) but I enjoy it, and know what's in it. I pack sandwiches for work, and am spending north of $18 a week just on lunch meat. Am I a cheap donkey for making my own? Don't care! I've been researching...

    Hog casings - ever seen this??

    Here are the curds I used. They have 135mg salt per 1 ounce serving. I used 10 ounces (10% of the 6.25 pound total weight of the batch) so that's only an additional 1.35 grams of salt.

    Hog casings - ever seen this??

    Yeah, maybe the curds. I chopped them by hand, and there was some curd "dust" in the mix. As for the casings, they were in a salt brine. I rinsed them several times, and flushed them several times as well. They also soaked in fresh water for about 18 hours, so I don't think it is salt. They...
