Hey guys-
So in my excitement to make sausage this weekend, I ended up making 50 lbs, way more than I need. And to top it all off, I messed up the knackwurst seasoning and cure amount, so I ended up with a 20 lb batch instead of 10. My new smoker is too small for my own good, it handled about 3 lbs...
