Neither product really has a "flavor" so to speak. The only flavor you'll get is from the sausage you've made.
There is a texture difference though, with the collagen having a bit more chew to it. The natural casings are more tedious to stuff because they are easier to burst if over stuffed...
MD, it does seem to have rubbed me the wrong way...I'm not sure why actually. I will take my advice and say your opinions are free to be posted (as long as they're in the right section as they are ;)).
I guess the root of my frustration initially is that I don't think constricting a person...
Well you've still got the bags right? Figure might as well us them on something. It was the Drybag site's pepp recipe right? So could you explain more on the taste? Did it taste like pepperoni at all?
Red, that is a very open view and I 100% agree. I personally enjoy posting how I did something, if not for everyone else's sake and mine to remember.
This is all I'm really getting at. No one should be told to post more information or rethink posting at all. Not on a free forum at least.
Which is their right as this is a free forum. Until the forum owner adds rules on posting (which would never happen), I'll advocate everyone post however they please as long as it pertains to forums section/sub-section you're posting in.
And c farmer, I do enjoy your posts!
I guess what I was getting at is why is the only way to post on this forum to include a write up? And why can't this forum just be used for fun and place to share some photos of your cook? If I see a thread with just photos, I still enjoy viewing them. If I want to know more, I'll ask. If the OP...
MD, while I agree that a little bit of information on how something was cooked and prepped goes a long way to accompany the photos of said cook, but a thread without that explanation that only contains a short blurb (or nothing) and then photos is FAR from worthless.
This forums is big...I...
Just like you described, the fat is firmer in beef than in pork and has less of the connective fat. It's best to cut pork into thin strips and put them into the freezer for about 6 hours prior to grinding. With cutting it into strips and freezing, when grinding the auger will grab and pull each...
It's amazing the stresses we endure for our loved ones huh ;)
Good to see your getting use out of it. I'm sure some good stuff will be put through it before the jump to independent stuffer is made.
The way I see it it's the difference between 3 seconds and 4. With the thermopen coming in at almost $100, I ain't complaining about that 1 second.
I looked through the reviews and they are pretty darn positive. I'm definitely looking forward to getting it and giving it a go.
Those look tasty. I gotta say I'm surprised you're futzing with using the auger for stuffing sausage. I did that my 1st time around, and immediately went online to buy a stuffer.
Glad you're enjoying it!
Knock off Thermapen for cheap.

Use code THERMO51 to get it for 10.18.
Just ordered one!
Pick up one of these bad boyz and put it on the opposite side of the burners. It'll work great to add the smoke needed.

The best smoke generator out there, IMO.
I live in the Crest Hill area and I'll admit that my MES30 has been left out in the rain and snow without a cover. I REALLY need to move it back into the garage, but I can confirm that it's still 100% functioning. YMMV, but mine is fine...that's all I'm saying. Take a look at this thread though...
