Then, there`s the new Project KB, covering basics. Both are the brainchild of Chuckwagon, who should continue moderating them, utilizing his experience. However, RedZed has experience here, too, and should not hold back in augmenting CW`s guidance, answering questions where needed, helping the rest of us learn. ...and succeed. Share the duties, guys. Share the wealth.
Yes, great idea...Redred has real experience in that area.
Godspeed!

The fat ratio on a butt from a market size hog (140 -180 llbs dressed weight) can be in the 20 - 30% range. And even if you cut it up separating and weighing the meat and fat you have to also take into account an amount of fat that is in the muscle itself. Fresh Italian and breakfast sausages sold in supermarkets will usually have 50% fat, the amount permitted in the regulations. What I would do in your case, is to make the sausage without adding any fat this time. See how you like it and if find it too lean, add fat next time. There is no right or wrong amount of fat in sausage. Use what you and your family like. Once you start making different styles of sausage you will learn that some call for as much as 40% fat and some for as little as 10%. Personally I prefer using the lower part of the shoulder, usually called the picnic. It has more red muscle meat and I think it's tastier. It is also leaner than the butt portion so I occasionally add back.
Yes Sir,

Also the world famous Hungarian Pick salami has like half of it fat.

Some time ago it was preferred like that.
They had pigs grown for that porpoise. Look at this meat.

Was than an echo? :lol:
I guess we're in agreement. :mrgreen:

Sad, this used to be a "Go to" forum
everyday to learn and ENJOY swapping knowledge. Just too bad it is out of control due to a leadership coo.

Dear users.
Do not remove from this forum active moderators!. Just like on every forum, from time to time you need to Cleanup. This also applies to human resources. I removed from the list of moderators, two people who for several years are not even on the forum. In their place, the moderator was made a colleague Redzed, which for a long time, helps me in dealing with translation.
It will me now sorely needed, as we begin to talk about movies and their translations for english. And poorly know English and it's hard for me to be writing about technical matters.
Colleague Barry is the main moderator of forum and this nothing will change.
I greet all of you

Maxell,
Now you better email CW and tell him that you won't accept his resignation.
It's simple, this Forum needs him.
I hope you realise now that you have one hell of a lot of dis-satisfied Forum members from all around the world.
I certainly received my share of emails with complaints about the handling of this mess.
As you say, we DO need a clean-up and let the current members decide where to start!!!
Cheers,
Jan.

I've always tried to set a good example for others-but many times I've had to settle for just being a horrible warning!

A friend Chuckwagon received the "Senior Moderator", which should please everyone.
Will be the head of all the moderators.
Yours, wishing you every success.
