    Thanks for sharing that! It sure beats stuffing a dish rag in it.

    Jalapeño Cheddar sausage

    Jalapeño Cheddar sausage using the recipe shown on Meat Church from Dayne Weaver of Dayne's Craft BBQ. The wife and I both have a low tolerance for spicy heat, so I just cut out the jalapeño powder and I seeded and de-ribbed the fresh Jalapeños. The result was exactly what I hoped it would be. I...

    Stuffer/Equipment issues

    If you can find an old fashioned cast iron stuffer, they don't have gaskets, just a snug fitting cast iron plate. That's what I've been using for 45+ years.

    using pickling spices in a sausage recipe

    It's your choice. I made Ethan Chlebowski's recipe which does not call for grinding them and it was excellent. If I make his recipe again I would consider grinding them, just to change it up. It's all good, and it all beats what the stores sell. So many sausage recipes and so little time!

    Texas Red Hots

    I'm with you that still looks like a lot of heat for my taste. Other than that it looks like a good recipe.

    Any beef tallow makers out there?

    That is water that is still in it. Render it a second time to evaporate that or it will mold if left in there.

    Sausage fat ratio

    If it's 5 lbs total fat and meat(4+1), then it is 20% fat. The fat is 25% of the meat only, but 20% of the combined weight.

    Sausage fat ratio

    Use back fat or pork belly, but any pork fat will work. Fat is flavor, it will enhance the taste.
