All Pork German Bratwurst

[paulgeorge]

Started with a boneless butt .
2 1/2 pounds of all pork grind .
18 grams kosher salt .
3.0 grams white pepper
1.5 grams each ,
Nutmeg
Caraway seed
Marloram
Ginger ( I had to sub allspice )
1 whole egg
Liquid as needed . I didn't add any . Normally I would add milk or
heavy cream for these .

I got it all mixed and into the fridge for a couple days .
Covered at 36 degrees .

I keep my casings wet , then get out what I need and get them flushed .
Nice and soft . Always ready to go that way .

My Dad cooked all his Brats indirect , hot and fast with
apple wood . Great way to cook 'em . The apple really adds to it .

Doesn't take long . IT was 175 .

Could have pulled just a bit sooner , but no split or loss .
Bite was perfect .

Kept it simple with some steamer corn and chips .
Pretzel buns and homemade kraut . Had some honey mustard that went well
with the buns . That homemade kraut with caraway seed is perfect .

These were good , but on the mild side for me . Kids gave a thumbs up
and went back for seconds on the sausage . I think I was missing the ginger ,
but all I had was fresh and it was at date . I wasn't going to take a chance of spoiling the whole batch .
So I subbed allspice , which works too .

I think these were on the bbq on the knifemeet in Köln a couple of years back.

Sounds like my next sausage, Rich! I haven't been to the site much lately and almost missed it.
All the Mrs. likes are Polish/Kielbasa and Italian, but it's time I made something just for me :)
I even have hi-temp cheddar....

[voyager 663rd]

Oh my, those look sooooooo good.

I usually just grind/spice and cook as patties. Then freeze. I've made kielbasa in the past in my WSM smoker 18" and it was great as well--but much more effor.t

Maybe.........
