Probably not exactly what you're looking for, but there's a shop near me that makes Minnesota-style summer sausage.
I made a 25 lb batch myself this year. I used PS Seasonings No. 957 old-fashioned as a base. 1 cup Wild Rice, 1 cup blueberries, 8 oz maple syrup, 8 oz honey (all of these...
Thanks for the recommendations! I really appreciate the input.
Can I ask why a Chamber Vacuum? What are the benefits of that vs a suction-type sealer?
My prep tables are pretty nice. Stainless steel frame with removable UHMW tops. Great for cleaning and the frames are pretty lightweight...
Thanks for the review! I'm pretty sure I have the same Outdoor Edge set. I won it at an outdoors banquet a few years ago and I've used it ever since. I like the way they feel in my hand and they seem to hold a decent edge. My old set was a cheapo set I picked up at Walmart I think and they...
To be honest, I'm not sure what it needs yet. It was running fine when taken out. It's currently just sitting on a trailer needing to be set up. We haven't even figured out a location to put it yet. A free walk-in is an offer I couldn't refuse. I believe it's around 8' x 8'.
I've never...
Sharpener was top of my list before I asked for suggestions. I was looking at the Work Sharp Ken Onion model. Any thoughts on that?
I like my hunting knives - I've spent some money on those. I have a couple of skinning and deboning knife sets that I won at a banquet. They're not top of the...
I want one too but I would say my knowledge of smoking is pretty much only what I've learned through reading and interacting with places like this. I'm interested in a real smokehouse, but the electric smokers are just so easy. I'm a bit scared to take on something new and screw it all up...
Oh for sure. To be clear - no one has ever tried to "cheap out" on me. It's always just worked well that I find something that I want to upgrade each year so I just let them know what I want. Maybe it's my fault for liking the toys more than the money. :emoji_laughing:
That's one of the things on our to do list this spring. I have an electric hoist that I use but it's just mounted in one location. We took down a shed that had a sliding door last year and we're going to repurpose the rail so I can slide the hoist back and forth.
We also got a small walk-in...
Thanks. How does it do with sticks? I can make the Vevor work if I use the 1/2" tube and "unstring" the 21mm casing and re-load it on the tube. The 5 lb stuffer works fine with the smaller casings. Every year around this time I swear off ever making sticks again and then the next year comes...
Hey Guys,
My hunting group used to bring our deer (usually 2-4 each year) to our local butcher shop with great results, but about 20 years ago they changed owners and the quality dropped and the prices increased dramatically so I decided to try my hand at doing my own...
I've made Minnesota summer sausage a few times as I grew up just down the road from Schmidt's. I'll have to see if I can find my notes but if I remember right the last time I made a 25 lb batch I used the Hi Mountain summer sausage kit and added 1 cup wild rice, 1-2 cups blueberries, 8 oz...
Hello,
Been a lurker around this forum for a little while. Decided to join to get some more info on this addicting hobby.
I currently own 2 Cajun Injector smokers (MES) and have primarily used them for making venison sausage. This past summer I tried doing some ribs and a chicken with pretty...
