Can't wait for the end result. I just purchased several of PS mixes to try out myself .You are doing what I need to start doing . Just do small portions at first to see if it needs anything else to improve the flavor etc. It takes a lot of meat to keep making 25 pound batches and then you need space and time to eat it. I am doing 12.5 pounds of their Red Barn Bologna soon!

Do these take the place of regular summer sausage casings? If so whats the advantage, more curious than anything. Thanks

 

[SFLsmkr1]

Cloth bags are old world style. Better smoke penetration for those who like smokier. But remember the meat will only take so much smoke, if you want smoke thru the entire meat you will need to use liquid smoker or smoke powder.

Remove the bag today (be nice this is a family forum)

Peeled off clean. I like to cut the ring end off

Looks and taste good. Yeah small air pocket but no biggie, i stuffed by hand.
