Let me see your sausage!

Bumping an old thread with a great title. A couple pictures of "sausage fest": a (mostly) annual event with my cousin using his grandfather's polish sausage recipe.

Well here Ya go! There's 40 lbs of elk brats, 10 lbs of jalapeno elk brats, 5 lbs of Maple breakfast elk sausage, and 5 lbs of formed elk bacon! And to top it all off my extra pale ale to keep me going!

I made knackwurst today. Had a bad batch of hog casings and had to stuff half of it into collagen castings. Smoking now and hoping for the best.

Is the Canadian bacon a tenderloin?

Fabulous thread. I've neer made sausage but, after reading the title had to click, I just had to. Can't say I was disappointed. Mouthwatering stuff, just sublime.

Salmonclubber, any chance of sharing your Summer Sausage recipe? I made some for the first time a month ago using Sausagemakers mix. Turned out more like Bologna than Summer Sausage

I just had some summer sausage that was more like balogna. It was good but not chunky and firm.

I use the same stuff as you are using premixed from the sausagemaker I also add special meat binder and powdered milk that i get from butcher-packer these two things improved my summer sausage so much everyone loves it I also like to give them a little kick not much just a bump so i add cayanne pepper to my summer sausages too one teaspoon per five pounds of meat is enough to change the flavor but not much heat Good stuff

Does the powdered milk and binder give the sausage that tart flavor that I'm familiar with in summer sausage? I have seen some use fermento or encapsulated citric acid.
