Sticks & Summer Sausage

[SWFLsmkr1]

Things sorta back to normal here.
Got 2.5 lbs of willies stick mix all mixed up.
Doing my old thing of mixing the dry/cure with some water. I mix with my KA and dough hook these days, hand mixing just not working out good with my rusted out hands (ha)

In the fridge for stuffing mon or tues.

Also have 3.5 lbs of Owens Cervelat mixing.
