Hello. I just purchased the meat grinder and sausage stuffing attachment for the kitchenaid mixer, and am excited to start making my own homemade sausages.
Living now in Korea, space is limited, so a smoker is unavailable to me. I was thinking of using some liquid smoke for flavour, and a hot water bath to make my sausages.
Any tips/advice?
Thank you in advance.
Hot Bath Only Sausage?

I am sure the more experienced sausage makers will chime in shortly as well.
For fresh sausages, you don't really need a water bath. You can make them and keep in the fridge for a couple of days, or freeze them.
When you want to eat them, you can poach them, grill them, use them in soups or fry them.
I havent used liquid smoke, but it doesnt change anything to the preparation.
Where in Korea are you and what is it like living there?

Let us know what types of sausages you like and we might be able to make some recommendations. I make a nice ham style sausage using very coarsely ground pork leg, with Cure #1, and only salt, pepper and garlic. I stuff it into 60 or 75mm collagen casings and poach it. It is quite simple but tastes wonderful.
Here is one suggestion:
