Homemade Sausage - First Attempt

After years of talking about it I finally bit the bullet and made some homemade sausage  :cool:

I ended up buying a Electric Meat Grinder - STX International 3 Speed Turboforce 3000 and it worked well. One thing I did realize is I'm buying a dedicated Stuffer! My son was "suppose" to help me but ......

I used Hi Mountain Bratwurst Sausage Kit that I got from Cabela's. Since it was my first try I thought a kit would be easier to do. I must say fresh sausage taste so much better  :lick:

Now I must say I HATED the casings that came in the kit. Not sure what to expect I "assumed" they would be bundled neatly and would be easy to separate and put on the horn. This was a job all by itself. I'm going to spend extra next time and try pretubed casings.

Stuffing works well with the a grinder if you get a stuffing plate, it has just 2 kidney shaped openings and you remove the knife. If you buy a dedicated stuffer loo for one that you can attach a motor to it is great to be able to run it by foot and have both hands free.

 Good looking sausage.

Yes I have a stuffing plate with my grinder. My biggest problem was pushing the ground up meat down the grinding head/tube. Now this was my first time using the unit so I had nothing to compare it to.
