View Full Version : Sausage making day
A snowy Sunday is perfect for making sausage at home. Starting with about equal parts of lean moose trimmings and a pork shoulder to add fat, we made about 16 lbs. of Italian and German Knapwurst. We use a lot of Italian for pizzas, stir fry veggies and pastas, etc. The knapwurst is a breakfast sausage made with oatmeal, baked in a loaf, sliced and packaged to flash fry in the morning with eggs.
The fun part of sausage making is the taste testing with beer.
Anyone else make their own sausage recipes?

Had a bunch of tag soup this year but yes, in the past when I fill tags, we typically have a sausage day. We keep it simple with breakfast sausage, pepperoni, and occasionally some brats.

I said "ooops"......
I make 30 lbs a month along with 15 lbs of bacon and 20 or so lbs starting weight of top round for jerky
Sausage is mostly breakfast and brats I did some andouille last batch and my texture was off. Taste is there but it doesn’t cook right I don’t think I bloomed it enough after the smoke. I have a curing chamber for dry pepperoni salami etc but it is more of a summer thing.
It’s my Clandestine charcuterie
I have a tester batch of peppered bacon if anyone wants to test drive

Being of Polish descent( not Polish-American because I am an American)I found several really good kielbasa and meat stick recipes. Like for example Hunters Sausage, A dried smoke beef stick traditionally carried in the field while hunting, it keeps for awhile
Damn, looks like good sausage.

You still doing bacon? I need a good fix.

Peppered bacon, and smoked too? That really does look fantastic.
