As a Yooper, I need to see him make a pasty (Past-tee). That's the fundraiser done by most groups. The Cudighi is more of a specialty from one location. I only ever had one from this location. Pasties are made every where. Far more portable and sometimes need a little kechup.

Yoopers live in the U. P. They refer to those of us who live in the Lower Penisula as Trolls ... because we live below the bridge, The Mighty Mac.

From Central IL with a brief stay in the UP. Now that you’ve entered the yooper realm, we need the Sam take on U.P. pasties

Thank you. You can’t just take any Italian spicy sausage and make a cudighi. I liked the cudighi sausage on Tino’s pizza in Negaunee. The best pizza I’ve ever had and it’s not close and I’ve had pizza all over the US.

The traditional cudighi sausage recipe differs just a little bit from Italian Sausage, but it's pretty similar. Every Italian in the Upper Peninsula has a tweaked recipe that's been handed down. Here is what i use in my sausage. I prefer Pork Loin because it's a bit leaner than Shoulder/Butt, but it's all personal preference. 10# Ground pork 2 Cups Red Wine 8 cloves garlic, crushed/minced 1 TBSP Garlic Powder 4 TBSP Salt 2 TBSP Pepper 1 Tsp Nutmeg 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/2 tsp clove 1/2 tsp Allspice 2 TBSP crushed red pepper flakes, more if you like it spicier Optional- 2 tsp fennel seed Boil cinnamon, clove and garlic in the wine 5 minutes, remove from heat, let cool. Once cooled, mix all ingredients into the pork and ideally let sit overnight before you cook it. Goes amazing as a pizza topping or a sandwich. Traditionally as a sandwich, we top with raw onion and yellow mustard. But it's expanded to pizza sauce, cheese, mushroom, pepper etc.

I love what you did but cudighi is actually a specific sausage for the sandwich. It's simple to make and what you did would probably complement it quite well. The real sausage uses some red wine, and nutmeg, garlic and either clove or allspice.

cudighi is a type of sausage that is from Italy, but a very specific part of Italy that doesnt use standard Italian spices, that you make into a cudighi sandwich, or "a cudighi". Sorry Sam, you didnt make "a cudighi", you just made a roasted red pepper Italian patty melt. but it looks good.

The only important thing is to get genuine cudighi, a sweet Italian sausage. Toppings and sauce are flexible. Looks good though.

7:30 this activated a sleeper agent somewhere out there

It's not just Italian sausage though. At the very least it's soaked in red wine overnight, most people put cloves cinnamon and nutmeg in too.

The music transition was my favorite part

This recipe looks delicious I wish you could have gotten your hands on some real Cudighi as its a bit different than regular Italian sausage. Its usually made with wine, nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon, salt and pepper and some spice to heat it up. Would definitely take this to the next level and add some next level flavor.

I don't know if you guys have a fryer big enough, but I'd like to see your own take on a pork tenderloin sandwhich(/Texas tenderloin) like they make in Indiana/surrounding states.

Wow, thanks for the taste of home. I grew up in that little piece of the UP thats home to the cudighi.

As a yooper your version is yooper approved! Now we just have to get you to make pasties! But that’s a whole other subject…

In Northeast Pennsylvania there is a popular pizza. It’s tomato, garlic and basil. The sauce is a white sauce. Not sure what it is. Maybe make that.

Native Yooper here - That is a nice version of a cudighi that I'll have to try. These are so traditional here, but like all regional foods, every family has their own recipe. The only thing you have to be careful of is to not over-work the sausage meat, it'll get dense and tough as a hockey puck don't ja know...

Man I've been subscribed for a while now and somehow missed this. But as someone that grew up in Marquette County (where cudighi originated) it's been a staple since I was young. Only thing I'll add is that what makes it cudighi is the spice blend used in the ground sausage, so it differentiates a little from Italian Sausage, although very close. If you ever find yourself in the Yoop definitely make sure to try a sandwich. This was really cool! Thanks for doing it

I'm a little newer to the channel but this recipe caught my eye. Just made it and it was amazing. Absolutely loved it with the roasted red pepper sauce instead of tomato. Nice touch, Sam.

7:28 Favorite non food part 😂

That music transition though... respect.

Yooper here. Just gotta say how awesome it is you made a cudaghi. Grew up eating them and definitely my favorite food of all time. The actual meat itself is what makes it a cudaghi, but I love how you put your own twist on it, very cool. Yoopers represent!

I loved going up there from Trolland but it took forever driving just to get to the Big Mac Bridge. Once there, while I was a kid...almost no tv, no radio, etc...we drove to the dump to watch bears maul each other...Beautiful country and local Native Tribes smoked a fish called "Chub" ? not sure if it was just a carp ? and it smelled bad one bite and it was awesome, while the stinky grease ran down your chin and arms. It took days to wash it off but was fun or eating pasties the copper miner's put in their hats to stay warm until lunch time.

Agree, this is not a cudighi sandwich. It is an Italian sausage sandwich. Cudighi has a unique flavor profile.

Just so you know for future reference, a Yooper is only 'a little rustic' if they come from high-class stock. Your typical Yooper is pleasantly full-on rustic. When you have winters that can drop 6 ft. of snow or more, full-on rustic is the way to go. What California had recently is pretty common in the U.P.

Best music transitions yet! Also, that sandwich looks good.

I been following Sam for many years and now my kids are , they are learning how to cook and they use Sam as a reference ❤

I grew up eating those sandwiches. I’m from Norway, MI and would go to the C&R bar in Aurora, WI (border of WI & MI). Good stuff! Thanks for making a version!

As a born and raised yooper, this is not the correct way to make this. You must start with plain ground sausage and add wine, garlic and several spices to it, leave it in the fridge overnight to let the spices meld with the meat, usually served on a bun with mozzarella cheese and pizza sauce. It can also be used in lasagna also or put on pizza.
