    Yeah! I did a tiny fry test and I liked it a lot. Something suitable to make a really good hot dog or maybe a "Salchipapa". I am smoking them tomorrow morning for about an hour and Then cooking them in hot water (all this according to Mariansky's book). Is this the Best thing to do?

    When does protein extraction happen here? 🥲...I just don't want to screw it.

    Thanks for your answer. 1. Chill to the point of freeze between passes? 2. Should I grind everything together? I mean...fat and Lean? 3. Should I add the salt and cure salt after the 3 grind pases? 4. When should I toss the seasoning in? @SmokinEdge recipe is pretty clear but I am not sure...

    Off from work went to the nearest butcher...thought I was all set, but found an obstacle here. Do not have the mighty juicer. How can I get the emulsion? All I have at hand is a KitchenAid and a small home-grade pulse Food processor. Is everything Lost?

    Mindblowing to me! only thing I do not have at hand is sheep casings. Can I use the regular pork casings I use for chorizos? I mean...besides having a thicker sausage, will there be any other change?

    Hot dogs

    Wandering around the subforum for a straightforward hot dog recipe. Dear @SmokinEdge could you guide me to find the right thread? Thanks in advance. PS: Haven't had the time to put my hands on whole pork leg for the ham project.

    Dave In AZ Santa Rosano Chorizo with video, yet another St Rose Sausage, it's great!

    Wow! What a beautiful Job you have done there. I am really happy to see it in a YouTube tutorial, avaliable for everyone. With all respect, I'd like to suggest a correction. My Country is "Colombia" not "Columbia"...and people from Colombia, are "Colombian" not "Columbian" :emoji_wink: It is a...

    My apologies to @geostriata for using his Thread as a platform for a non-sausage related question. @SmokinEdge The curing bug has bit me hard...I am thinking about getting a pork leg (or part of it) curing it and making as beautiful cooked ham nad have several questions about it. Where in the...

    By the way, I attach some pictures of my 20KG batch. It was an insane load for 2 people and my small DIY smoker. Eventhough my mix is similar to @HushyQ , I think the texture ended up being quite different. Take a look!

    This looks a lot like my first chorizos, the texture, I mean. But no idea which could have been the issue. I can't be 100% sure it was the tenderloin, but when I have used it in chorizos, I always got disappointing results. I don't use it anymore in spite of being a cheap lean cut. I blame it...

    Hello Guys! I join the chorizo party! Here are my 20kg of Colombian Chorizo with a few questions in retrospective. The process is in the curing stage so far. I am stuffing today evening. I expect to get about 250 chorizos. Here I attach some pictures of the mixture before protein extraction...

    Hello There Very interesting findings and very thoughful chorizo analisis. It surprises me the fact that you find little difference between the all-ground and the Minced-Ground version. I'm at pains because I think that I might have misused language here. By mincing I mean knife-chopping small...

    I think I might have made mistakes with the translation and what I used is the Long green onion and chives. Anyway, I don't think it has a significant weight in the final result.

    Even even more Colombian Chorizo

    That is right! I used what we call "Cebolla larga"/Green Onion and a smaller or finer version "Cebollín" that I translate into english as Chives or Scallions...Not sure if I am correct in the translation. I have also noticed that most of you guys take the all-ground way. You might want to...
