    Ya 12C 52F ist important. The finest grinding will often result in a thermal runaway. Back-freezing is beneficial. The intricacies involved in preparing the fine ground bratwurst are worthwhile. Depending on your particular situation it may be easiest to place the fat trimming back into the freezer while setting up for either a coarse or medium grind for the lean cut meat. You might also find that hand mixing the spices and phosphate into the lean ground medium or coarse mixture is effective at accomplishing an even seasoning. Switch to the finer grinding disc and run the mixture with the chilled fat. Regardless, the double grinding whether coarse-medium or Coarse-fine or Medium-fine requires attention to temperature No greater than 52f/12C. Go fine.

    We used to make venison bratwurst all the time with about 40% pork shoulder, so a little less fat, but coarse ground and they were wonderful. Ah the memories, up until midnight in the deer camp, dead tired grinding and mixing meat and spices. Beer bottles with little chunks of raw meat stuck all over them and the little frying pan on the stove just to check the flavour of course...Good times.

    Eric, great to see this episode as I will be making Bratwurst this weekend. Along with the Bratwurst I will also be making Weisswurst. I use recipes from the book Great Sausage Recipes and Meat Curing by Rytek Kutas (I'm sure you are familiar with it). While I prefer the more traditional grind my wife likes the emulsified texture better so you know where I go. One suggestion for an episode for you would be to talk about how to make emulsified sausages at home as most of us don't have a Robo chopper or other large scale equipment needed to process emulsified sausages. One thing I learned here was to separate the fat and the meat during emulsifying process. As a side note both my son and wife think the Weisswurst is closer to what we use to buy as Bratwurst in the grocery store back in the 90's. Again thanks for all your efforts to put on this series.

    the emulsified version was what I always grew up with. I think it was college before I got exposed to the courser version, probably Johnsonville, and just thought "that's not brats that's just a normal sausage." Good brown mustard, rye bread. Simple and delicious.

    To me Germany is the world champion of sausage making and the authentic German Bratwurst is one of my favourites and I have made many different versions, my favourite being an emulsified, or fine version with chili, ground cumin, marjoram, nutmeg, fresh minced onions, chives and parsley. Just delicious. (P.S. For emulsifying I use crushed ice rather than just cold water as you can keep the mix colder for longer this way).

    This is going to sound like a troll question, but I’ll explain why it’s genuine after: do people really only make these small batches of sausage? My mom’s side of the family (Germanic mutts from Alsace to the Caucasian mountains) still get together most every year to make sausage, usually around 300-400lbs. I know we can make small batches and have done so when we didn’t make new for a few years, but it seems so weird. A typical batch size (because this is as much as the clean wash tub can hold) is 80lbs. My dad, brother and cousins all take turns kneading the meat by hand until the seasonings and garlic tea are evenly distributed over their forearms.
