Yes that's right, never heard of it? Well it's a thing. Sold at a Edelweiss Sausage in Portland Oregon. So what is it? Sausage stuffed bacon. They use their house Bologna.


I am using a modified version of this as the stuffing.

For the bacon Many may remember that I saved a half slab of belly when I did this bacon a while back.

This morning I got the STX out and ground the meat. Did a course grind first, then added the seasoning. Ran through the fine plate. Weighed the meat and added the cure. This will sit in the fridge over night. In the morning I will add whole green olives, the whole pepper corns and if I can get some the pork fat back. My Butcher is being a bit stingy.

I will stuff the bacon slab, then the leftover will go into Muslin casings all of which will go into the smoker.

That time you forgot to check the propane tank the night before you plan to use the smoker... Yeah I need propane...
 
Count me in on this one... the Edelweiss Sausage was featured on Diners-Driveins and Dives. What an amazing place.

You've got a killer start on the Schweinebauch DS - Rock on!
 
Okay, let's get this going! Propane filled! Let's do this!

I decided that the slab was kind of big so I lopped off a hunk for breakfast.

Added peppercorns and Spanish olives with pimentos.

Okay so the recipe for the sausage is in my first post of this thread. The only thing I changed was I did not add pistachios. I did not add the diced fat back, the butcher claimed to not have any... I added olives. I added the normal amount of cure #1 by weight as I will be smoking this slowly.

I will be doing my standard smoke process for sausage.

First hour 130 no smoke.
Then add smoke and up the temp 10 degrees every hour until the pit reaches 180.

I will be using the expando tube with cherry.
