What?!! Big Guy got a new grinder and he washed his table! Nice going R.D. You made my whole week! Hey, another 6 weeks and you'll have to start diggin' & plantin' again in Southhampton. Has that Florida sun given you a tan?

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it probably needs more time on the grill!

Chuckwagon Ole Buddy I just knew you would comment on the grinder, I just couldn't bring all my sausage making equiptment down south , so I bought some new stuff. It's just for small batches I picked ap a grinder at Northern tool for $99 and a 5# stuffer for $69 and I had a cupon for $20 off so a grinder and stuffer for $150. I'm all set up to Smoke sausages here too. LOL Once you are hooked you can't stop making sausage. LOLChuckwagon wrote:What?!! Big Guy got a new grinder and he washed his table! Nice going R.D.

Gus, I'm assuming the 20 minute simmer is indeed 'cooking' the brats-provided they reach the desired IT-and one can simply reheat them on the grill, in a pan, etc.snagman wrote: Question - what is the purpose of the simmering ? How do you finally cook these ?
