Cellulose Casing HotDogs
Cellulose Casing HotDogs
First time making hotdogs. I used 3 pounds ground chuck and 2 pounds ground boston butt. We poached a few and smoked the rest. Definitely like the smoked ones better but they were more like skinless sausage.
The recipe:
Chuck
Butt spaghetti
All stuffed
Poached peeled
Smoked peeled

Looks good enough to eat from what I see! The smoked really got a great color to them as well.
How do you skin the casings from the dogs? Always looking for a better idea.

I agree, but be sure and backup your log on a regular basis! I lost about 3 years of notes, pics, and recipes last week due to a hard drive failure on the ONLY machine in the house that wasn't connected to the home server on auto backup... I thought it was backing up, but never made sure...ssorllih wrote:If you don't keep a note book but always photograph your recipe board then your album on the computer is your record and electronic notebook.

just cut 1 end off the casing and they slide right out. If you use these don't prick the air bubbles as they split like nothing from any start. Makes them very easy to peel but they bust easily if you give them a start. You can see in the poached pic where I stuck in the probe the meat is protruding.
We backup all of our pics to an external hard drive.

Good idea, using a dry erase board for the recipe. I always print out a copy of my recipe, then make notes on it, then have to type in the notes from the nasty, greasy thing. Keeping notes on a dry erase board seems like a better solution. Cap and wash off the marker after you are through.
