Lets Make Summer Sausage

[BGKYSmoker]

Using some Owens BBQ mixes.
Going with 2.5 pounds each. Going lean ground beef 90/10

The German is going SS (dont feel like emulsifying)
Might add some ECA to the north country and Sako to the German.
Using the snoopy smoker to make the German official...lol

I had to freeze the meat until this junk is out of my foot.
My rheumatologist calls it gounty arthritis.

My rheumatologist calls it gounty arthritis.

Had it in my right foot . Some of the worse pain I've ever had . I never had the pills , but drank tart cherry juice to help clear it up . Seemed to work .

Friend of mine in the UK told me about a drink to make. Hot boiling water. Take the yellow off a lemon. squeeze the juice into a bowl, cut the rind off (white part) put rind and juice into the cup of hot water and sip on it. He said in a day you will have the gout being neutralized. Drink vinegar with the mother 2 T 2x daily until the soreness is gone. Im going to try it.
Yes it is very painful

 

[chopsaw]

Let me know . The cherry juice relieved it in a couple days to the point I could wear shoes . Never made that drink , but did shots of apple cider vinegar twice a day . Now I take the ACV pills .
Cherry pie filling is something else that helps .
Good luck bud . I feel for ya .

 

[Winterrider]

I hope you can get a handle on it . I haven't had but a couple friends have. They said it is terrible.

 

[BGKYSmoker]

Finally got the SS stuffed. Hanging to dry some before the smoker.
Have to use the PB Vertical. My PID for the snoopy smoker has a bad temp probe.

 

[SmokinAl]

Looking good Rick!
Al

 

[BGKYSmoker]

Thanks Al

 

[indaswamp]

MMMMM! Glad you were able to get them finished Rick. I like your hanging pole set up....cool idea with the eye bolts and big washers....removable too. <thumbs up>

 

[BGKYSmoker]

Here is the sliced shots of both SS.

German. Owens BBQ german mix.

North country. Owens BBQ north country mix.

 

[SmokinAl]

Dang Rick that is some good looking SS!
Awesome job!
Al

 

[indaswamp]

Looks good to me Rick! Like!

 

[Braz]

Making me hungry just looking. My last batch was a failure. I think I overdid the ECA and that caused it to harden to the point where only the dog liked it.

 

[chopsaw]

Nice . Perfect texture and color . Another reason I like the Owens mixes is they add sodium erythorbate in the mix .
I used the German , it's a good one . I also have garlic SS that I still need to use .
Nice work as always .
