    Any advice on my first sausage attempt?

    I Googled Texas Hill Country Sausage, found a recipe cited to Gary Howard. Also, KC5TPY on here messaged me a recipe. I modified them a bit, added a little Marjoram, and thats about it.  Real close to the recipe by Gary Howard plus Marjoram.

    Thanks for all the tips.  My first attempt was a success, at least according to my wife.  Texture was good, but think next run will improve as I will have my meat chilled a little more prior to grinding.  Made a 2 part pork shoulder to 1 part ground chuck using a combination of recipes I found...

    Any advice on my first sausage attempt?

    Thanks for the tips.  Now if I have this correct, as my Bratwurst will be fully cooked when I use it, I don't need a cure.  Also, I plan on fully cooking the Texas Hill Country Style in the smoker when ready to cook (I most likely will freeze uncooked sausage and bratwurst until needed) and...

    Any advice on my first sausage attempt?

    Thanks, For my Brawtwurst, I don't smoke, grill them first to brown, then finish them by cooking in beer, onions and green peppers.  Makes them real moist. Thanks for the advise, will start browsing for Texas Hill Country Sausage now that I know what style I am looking for.
