At work for the past several years I have made these green little beauties and shocked, disgusted, and suprised alot of our customers!!! We take some coarse ground CB and mix it with a batch of basic country style sausage and then stuff it into a hog casing. OH YEAH...and we ad some green food coloring! Sure causes a alot of customer interaction!

And heres a pic of the stuffed cornedbeef and pork...without the green added. We decided to make a batch w/o it so we could offer some to those people that always say, "I would buy some if it wasn't green!" HA No excuses now!

Nice Looking Sausages...

Reminds me of Jack Klugman in "The Odd Couple"  He had Brown Sandwiches and Green Sandwiches,  They asked,  "What are the green?"  "It's Either Very New Cheese or Very Old Meat."

I'm in envy here...................... I dont know what a butcher makes a year but I would love to quit my stinkin job and become one.................

If your customers saw your first and second pic with the meat and the food coloring in the mixing tub I'm sure it would have sent them running out the door......
