Got tired of waiting on the boston butts to go back on sale so I choked up and paid the $2/lb so I could get started. Used a 6 lb. butt and 2 lbs of 73/27 beef and a simple smoked sausage recipe. LEM hog casings. LEM Big Bite 8 with the plastic tube. Worked fine but I can see that if you didn't have the foot pedal, this would definitely drive one to purchase a dedicated stuffer. Only had a couple of blowouts and one that was stuffed a little tight and was hard to twist but overall it was pretty easy going. Pricked them and then into the fridge tonight to be smoked in about 24 hrs. Copped a little out of the tube to fry tomorrow morning for breakfast.
