    Cheapest beef cuts for griding into sausage?

    Ground beef......80/20.....is on sale here right now for $2.55 lb. Sometimes chuck roll or beef shoulder clod will go on sale for less than that. Last Feb I got a packer for $1.99 lb for a 14 lber.....should have bought a case of them. Most of the time beef is $3.50 and up for a good grind-able...

    Thuringer sausage

    Aprilized.........I can only imagine the heat and humidity down there. But what you turned out looks great. I will tell you that the best thing I ever did with my KA stuffer was to give it away. I still use the grinder for small batches but the stuffer had to go. With a real stuffer making...

    total fail :(

    Patti, I think it will sometimes depend on your filling as well. When I use a dense filling.....like with pulled chicken or pork added to the mix, I have less problems with everything wanting to ooze out. So many ways to make them.......so little time to eat them..... Brad

    total fail :(

    Hey Patti.........something I have tried that worked well was to cut out a little wedge in the pepper and not cut the pepper in half. Open the pepper up like a little canoe and fill the inside with your goodies. I will dice up the slivers that I cut out of the peppers and add that to the...

    Snack stick texture

    I use a ratio of 40/60 to 50/50 with my sticks. My first two batches I did like yours and I thought they were too dry. Venison is such a lean meat, I think it needs more pork in the mix. Brad

    Where can I find some sheep casings?

    Thats the easy part. After soaking the casings in water (I do mine at least 12 hours), just slide the tube on the horn and pull the tube back off leaving the casing on the horn. Just don't forget to put a little bit of oil or Pam on the horn first. The only blow outs that I have had since I read...
