Baskin Robins Summer Sausage

[jbo_c]

Looking for more options on SS flavors. Why do they all seem to be, for lack of better terms, summer sausage flavored? :) Is it that the process draws them all toward the middle?

What if you took a hot Italian sausage recipe, added cure, and made it a summer sausage? What about Spanish chorizo? Andouille?

There’s bound to be a reason you don’t see them.

I think I’m going to try it with a hot Italian and a Spanish chorizo recipe unless y’all convince me there some reason it doesn’t work.

Maybe people do it all the time and I just need to get out more.

In Texas we lucky with Buc-kee's. They a great jalapeno cheese one for $3.99.

Instead of making summer sausage first, I suggest you make snack sticks. Use beef, make a small batch and see if you like the outcome.

Mixed up two batches today: hot Italian and Spanish chorizo. Will update on how it turns out. Smoking/cooking tomorrow. Will probably taste at Christmas.

Could not be much happier with how these turned out. The Hot Italian in particular holds its own against a cutting board of traditional fermented salami. The chorizo style is good too, but the hot Italian is the star out of these two.

Definitely not your typical summer sausage and well worth the effort.

I can share recipes if there is interest.

If you like them now you will love them in a week. I like some age on mine. I think these mash ups are some of the coolest things we as hobbiests can do. My current fave is SS with bratwurst mix. TONS of options once you head down this path.

JC, Your sausage looks delicious!

I've stuffed non traditional sausage types into large casing for a summer style sausage. Did brat recipe once. Turned out awesome.

Those looks amazing. Your imagination is your only limit.
