Thanks all!!! Yeah, I should have mentioned grams of insta cure. the package from sausage shop says a level tsp per 5 lbs. I did measure my tsp on a scale and it was 5 g. The recipe I copied per nlife's recommendation was from chuds video and his called for 11 g so that's what I did. getting...
10 lbs, 5 in each bag. Thanks so much. what I get for relying on the usps to meet the delivery date, lol. lesson learned to have all my ingredients on hand before starting. I'm learning, slowly but surely, thanks to you all!!!!!!
Going for my second batch of Jalapeño/Cheddar. I was hoping to make during the week but life got in the way. I have had my beef and pork cubed with insta cure #1 in freezer bags in the fridge for 4 days. Is that okay? How long can I realistically delay?
Thanks nlife, great idea and also thanks for providing the link to Boykjo's casing thread! Since almost all of this batch went to the kids and for New Years gifts I will be making this again soon. I want to only make a few tweaks to this recipe before moving on. A great tip and yes, it looks...
That's funny SmokinEdge, I bought a giant block of extra sharp Tillamook at Costco but wasn't sure that it wouldn't pool up or ooze out. It ended up on a New Years Eve Charcuterie tray.I would much prefer the sharp taste of good cheddar than the High Temp so next time I will use for sure as...
A Very Happy Ending and a great start to the New Year. You guys are Awesome. Thanks so much as I've learned so much in just my first post. To finish the batch I took them out of the fridge this morning, dried them off and put a fan on them for 30 min. Put them back on the Treager at...
Thanks SmokinEdge. I don't see how to turn on the fan on my 780. I don't think the smoke is getting stale as the chimney is just pouring out so I believe there is a good draft. Have 2 tubes going and they are burning much faster than when I use them for brisket and Treager is running. I am...
Excellent feedback guys, Thanks. I soaked my hog casings for 30 min. then flushed the insides twice. I did not keep them in water though while stuffing. Will take your advice next time SmokinEdge. I don't get a temp reading on my Treager without turning on but my thermapen reads 71 degrees...
Appreciate you all and the info i've gained while lurking around. Jleanard says you all like show and tell so I'll include some pics. Haven't made sausage in a long time as stuff happens, my kitchen aid took a dump and was a pain anyway. This is my first attempt at Jalapeño Cheddar and only...
Sorry all, I posted my intro in the wrong thread. Lets try again.
Hey all and thanks for an awesome resource. I stumbled upon the site while researching sausage making. Getting back into it after many years away as my first visit to central texas has really ignited a post oak fire to try my...
