    I was looking for something to do sausage in and this works great. It has plenty of room and it will heat to 250 with no problems if I want. I'm now giving her a new pimped out pant job that I will have done in a few days....I will post a picture when I'm done. Here is my first 25 pound run of...

    freezing summer sausage

    I also have a Food Saver Vacuum system and it is by far the best way. Back when I had summer sausage made at a processor they told me to double wrap in news paper then wrap it in freezer paper. I did it and it worked good but it will not stay as fresh as long as the food saver system but it did...

    I just made a 25 pound batch of venison/pork summer sausage yesterday. The temp was in the 90s. If I was making it out in the hot sun them maybe I would be in trouble.

    Is this a fattie or summer sausage

    Do you find the taste is better without the casings? Mine sure are. I'll smoke them and vacuum pack them. I really don't see the need for the casings any way for summer sausage. Now I have a 15 pound stuffer collecting dust.

    Is this a fattie or summer sausage

    Last year I was making venison snack sticks and ended up just rolling them into fattie sized logs and put them on the smoker with apple wood. Would these be considered fatties or summer sausage.....Either way it was better than any summer sausage Ive ever made. I dont think I'll use casings this...
