Spanish Chorizo

[tropics]

Found a small 5 lb. Pork Butt in the freezer on Wed, so Friday I de-boned & ground it.
Pork Butt

Used the KA to mix trying to keep my hands from aching

Stuffed on Sunday

This was 5 pounds

On to today put them in the oven for an hour to dry the casings

Set the smoker to 150°F in they went

3 hours later thru the glass

Let them smoke about 5.5 hours finish in the water bath

Finish temp 156°F

Cooled them in ice water then onto a rack to dry some

Thats all for now

Richie those look amazing!! Was it a premix or home mixed spices? Color on them is perfect!

I never thought of putting the dough hook on the KA to do the mixing....

That's clever.
