When you start putting it together tell us the recipe. I believe that there is at least one andouille recipe for each sausage maker in the bayou country.

Scotch Bonnet Pepper Sauce Sticks & Testing My New SS St

Post by Devo » Fri Jan 27, 2012 18:31

Yesterday I wanted to try my new stainless steel stuffer tube I made at work for my Kirby cannon. This is a 1\2 inch tube for those skinny sheep casings.
Image

I went with some more elk and GB,8lbs. total but I wanted this batch to be HOT. So I added a whole bottle of the scotch bonnet pepper sauce.
Image

Still not hot enough I think :o Lets add some smoked Jalapeno cheese. Diced in small pieces. Hope it will fit through the stuffer tube :?: The Kirby cannon pushed them out with no problem. ;)
Image

Ended up with two big coils and one hamburger size left over from the cannon to fry up and taste for heat. The two coils I just cut to length to fit the bradley racks (5 racks). Gave them 6 hours of smoke time, this just put them over the top with taste.
The final product was just what I was looking for and the stuffer tube handled the sheep casings a lot better with no binding or sticking. These will kick your butt for sure :wink:

Not sure which X-wife left that frog behind but he has stuck by me through thick and thin :mrgreen:

Seems I am having a problem getting those sticks into the vac bags.....they keep ending up in my mouth. Darn good sticks :cool:

There was a tavern in our town that had a two gallon pickle jar on the bar with sausage in pickle brine. Those sausages would sell a lot of beer. :shock:

Double Sausage Batch

Post by nepas » Fri Feb 03, 2012 05:16

I was going to go with a Poli recipe for the SS but i'm lazy tonight.


Got the venison through the 1/8 plate and ready for the cut in. Breaking down the grinder in the back.
Image


Beef fat 1 1/4 lb
Image


I cut the fat in and mixed by hand. Dont want to over work the fat. Do this with the meat as cold as you can stand it.
Image


Going with AC LEGG #114 SS mix. Has every thing i need in it already, TSP, Sodium Erythorbate, spices. I added 1/2 tsp black pepper and 1.5 tsp mustard seeds.

Have my 1 tsp cure 1 added to my water.
Image

The ECA will get mixed in tomorrow before stuffing. Mixed in by hand @ 5 tsp
Image


Added the AC/Cure with the 3/4 cup very cold distilled water. Mix by hand in the meat. I'm going to cover this bowl fridge and clean up.
Image


Got everything clean and sanitized. Transfer the mix into another bowl, cover and fridge for stuffing tomorrow.
