Making Sausage For The Holiday Today - Linguica, Kielbasa & Andouille

[chef willie]

These sausage posts are killin' me.....gotta find my gear & get cranking again. Hey DirtSailor.....that Loco on 'roids looked awesome, another meal I haven't had in ages but love all the parts of. Wayyyyyy back in the day of being 20'something and working in L.A. we used to hit a Chinese restaurant, Juniors, in the Crenshaw district for morning break and he would dish us up his sticky rice with brown gravy over the top.....a heavenly combo vividly remembered 40+ years later....Willie

Wow, you must eat well even when  you're not smoking with all that great sausage around. Terrific day of smoking.

Disco.

Those are great looking sausages. I;m afraid I'm like the others and never heard of linguica before.  Just as an aside, being a Saskatchewan redneck, I had never heard of kielbasa sausage.  Took me a while to figure out that it is what we call kubasa--even now I still do a double take whenever I see kielbasa  LOL

I'll get the recipe up for you in a little while Case - currently have cheese in the smoker then as soon as it comes out a deer rear has to go in. Also have to get some more deer rear started & some belly too - have to drink some beer while all this is going on too... Busy evening

Nice looking sausages Jeremy.......

        I see you have the cabela's grinder.... How many chunks have you taken out of the pusher so far...lol  I dont use the safety that goes across the tray... I need to order another pusher or make one that wont hit the auger without the safety.....

Thanks Joe 

  I've been lucky so far & haven't broken it yet - I'm gonna do like you & make up a pusher that won't hit otherwise it's just a matter of time...

The cherry really gave these sausages some nice color.

Thanks man 

  You should give it a try. I have to warn you though - once you do there is a very good chance you will be hooked & there won't be any turning back. You can't beat good homemade sausages!
