    Smoked giant turkey legs

    Hi everyone! Well I finally tried it.. Seeing as I'm in Florida I had to try and copy (or maybe even.. surpass?) the famous Disneyland smoked turkey leg. The first issue is finding these huge legs. I found a supplier that home delivers once every 2 weeks in South Florida but I didn't know the...

    Thuringer sausage

    Thanks. The first grind was great. It was about 90% frozen and it came through perfect. It was so cold that any tiny remaining connective tissue (I hand cleaned the pork and got rid of anything I could see) got cut up and didn't even get caught in the blade. I didn't use the blade to stuff it...

    Ok, I did find a Weston with all steel gears but I'll do a little research and see what the internet has to say. A

    Thuringer sausage

    That's a very interesting workaround. The issue with this type of sausage though is that the ground mixture has to sit for 3 days before stuffing because of the prague powder. This is added because of the 3 or 4 hours of cold smoking before the hot smoking. Also, there is a second grinding with...

    Thuringer sausage

    Thanks, I'm very happy with every aspect of the process except for the texture of the final product. So I suppose this isn't just me and the continuous movement of the sausage mass trough the KA stuffer adds to the fact that the mass is heating up and breaking. I appreciate your help and I'll...

    Thuringer sausage

    They tasted fantastic. Really excellent recipe. The texture should be more like well ground sausage. I feel that this is a broken mix. Still ate it and still loved it though but will be very careful next time when working in this Florida heat. Every piece of equipment including the meat has to...

    Thuringer sausage

    So I made my first smoked sausage a couple of weeks ago. It tasted delicious but unfortunately, they seem broken to me. The mix had to be passed through the stuffer a second time because the sausage was overstuffed and some broke so they had to be restuffed and I think that's what broke the mix...
