I’m interested in how you pickle sausage; all I’ve done is fish and that has turned out great.

Thanks Y'all

The brine i use is one i have had for years. pretty simple. You can adjust as you like. Over the years i found that leaving the sugar and water out i get a better taste.

2 pounds of your fav sausage (smoked or cooked)
hard boiled eggs OPT
Onion OPT

Note: You can use pickling spice pre mix and skip all the seeds below.

Brine
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 T mustard seed
1 T fennel seed
1 T coriander seed
1 T kosher salt
4 cups cider vinegar (adjust to your amount of jars needed for smaller batch)
2 cups white vinegar (same as above)
1 cup water (use distilled if your going to put garlic gloves in your jars)
4 bay leaves
1 star anise
few drops of red food color OPT (When brine is cooled)

Mix the brine in a large stock pot. Use SS if your using garlic cloves Broil for 5 mins, let cool before pouring into filled mason jars.

Using distilled water, SS stock pot will keep any garlic from turning blue.

How long do you let the magic happen in the jars before enjoying ??

How ever long you can resist opening

Im going with a week, invert the jars once in while to mix the brine around some.

24.00 dollars a jar for the sausage kind around here. Granted it's a big jar but yours look a whole lot better.

Point for sure
