    Curing Question?

    Thanks for the great replies.  I'm glad to hear I can still throw it in the smoker.  I'll plan on doing that this weekend.

    Curing Question?

    This past weekend I made up about 10lbs of venison brats.  After mixing, and getting ready to case them, I realized I didn't look far enough in the recipe to add cure to smoke it (stupid mistake).  I was only going to smoke them for a short period of time to get some color on them, and add some...

    New To Sausage Making - Tips?

    Thanks for the welcome. Quick question...probably a dumb one. A lot of recipies in the book aren't for just straight beef sausage...or even a beef/pork mixture. Is there any type of guideline when substituting with beef? Such as to make sure there is a 70% beef to 30% pork? Or does it...
