Ha, don't I know it. I've never had a batch last that long yet, lol. I did get to vac seal and freeze a package for my buddy near Dayton. Haven't seen him in a while and going to help him move next month. Gonna surprise him with some Jalapeño/Cheddar, pulled ham and smokies.
Excellent post by @boykjo. Good to know I can soak the whole hank and then put back what I dont use. At first i was trying to pull just what I needed and it was a tangled mess and I could never gauge how much to use. Really sucks to not soak enough casings. Good thing my wife and I love the...
Man those look fantastic. I have not done italian yet. Still trying to dial in the Polish. Italian is next though. I used to by some from a local market that they called "Sicilian Style" Italian sausage. It had pieces of red bell pepper, parsley, pecorino and white wine. Very tasty and at...
Thanks @SmokinEdge . I appreciate the feedback. I have always just gone by feel with my water. I should probably be more precise. My first batch I definitely used more water as I read it will help give the wrinkly texture that looks so nice. I think you are correct that this was not wet...
A Great post. Look delicious. I have never had the red dogs before but I remember seeing them when I lived in South Carolina. One brand I remember seeing was called " 3 Little Pigs Weiners". And that's the reason I never tried the red dogs, lol.
Rather than start a new thread I thought I'd just update this with my 2nd attempt at "Smokies"
Same recipe as above except for a few minor changes. Using feedback from family and friends I decided to cut down a bit on garlic & salt & change the salt/msg ratio, increase the black pepper, and cut...
Well, I think this thread just made me decide what to have on Fathers Day.
I've done both only because wife and son ask for FOTB. Over the years I have slowly converted them, lol, so I don't wrap. The only time I wrap now is when I give em a rubdown the night before.
Ribs are the most...
Congrats to you both Jim and Red. This has been a great follow culminating in a great looking first cook. You are right Jim, everything looks so small in that beast, lol. I too raise a glass, well not this early but tonight. Very cool that you fed the folks too. Many happy cooks!! And Red...
Always love your feedback @SmokinEdge so thanks. I am not good enough to tell by sight if there is enough protein extraction but again, it was as sticky as usual for me. I did not follow your advice and add the wine at the end of mixing. I will definitely do that next time. I too like what...
Thanks @geostriata I use weight for my meat and fat ratio but had to estimate because of the Pork belly I used. It was very fatty. What I didn't use when making PBBE. I also added 1 lb of brisket fat to increase the fat ratio. Another mistake I made was not hand cutting larger chunks. I...
So, not sure if I'm supposed to start a new post but I thought I'd keep this one going as others have with my attempt at Santa Rosana sausage. I made one major change in the meat selection and I fear it was my downfall. Any advice would be appreciated.
So, I made the sausage as the recipe...
This has been a very enjoyable follow. @seenred you do AMAZING work. Am I going to see ads for Double Lundy Smokers soon??? I'll put my order in.
I too am jealous @JLeonard Can't wait to see what comes outta that baby.
Huge Congrats to you both. You both should be very Proud!!!!!
Thanks for the tip @SmokinEdge. I am a social media and forum derelict so I'm not entirely sure what "tagging" actually does. Slowly but surely I'll get this. Thanks to you all and this killer site.
