I was not thinking when I was weighing my spice and salt out and mixed it with the NFDM and mixed into the cubed meat BEFORE grinding. How bad is it going to be…? I’m wondering if it’s going to gum up my grinder or impact the outcome of the sausage in any way. I usually do a double coarse grind...
I spend way too much time making bags and I feel like it adds wear on my vacuum sealer parts. I was looking on Amazon and saw a designated heat sealer for $50 or so and thought maybe I could use it to just make bags from the rolls I order? Anybody know from experience or have a suggestion?
Life’s all about who you know, and today I knew the right guy. Asked my neighbor who’s a plumber and he suggested a place to check. I went there and no needle valve to keep temps low enough but on my way home my neighbor called and he’d phone a favor from his buddy who does gas work and had me...
My regulator wasn’t working correctly on my gas smoker. When I tried to disassemble it to take a look, I accidentally broke the needle valve too. I use a camp chef smoke vault, 24 inch smoker and I have 25 pounds of kielbasa and 5 pounds of bacon.Needing smoked. What specs do I need so I can...
I read somewhere you can put metal gears on the Kitchener stuffer from Northern Tool? It’s what I have that broke and if it’s possible I’d love to know the details if anybody knows

I feel like an idiot but I need advice with this burger press or I need to change my expectations.
I’m doing 1/3 lb venison patties and using wax paper top and bottom. When I adjust the plunger thickness so that it will press the meat out to the 4.5” boundary to make consistent shape it makes...
I've got a few saws that need new blades. Especially my 16" Lem Bone saw...the blade on this saw has been a disappointment and was wondering what you recommend for a good alternative replacement blade other than LEM.
I am considering my next sausage type and the texas hot link seems like it fits the bill. Typically I mix pork, pork fat, and venison for my sausage. I have both beef and pork fat in my freezer as well as some 80/20 ground venison/beef fat that I could use. Would you stick to the beef fat and...
Yep. I wenttto sausage maker and they were the same as what I needed. Was hoping to save money on eBay with a 3 pack but I really only do hog casing anyways. Thanks!!
