4. Cut the meat into small chunks that fit the grinder throat
5. Drop meat and fat intermittently for a better blend
6. Weight the meat and use the right amount of seasoning

    I've watched a few old school butchers make sausage - there tips to add to this: 1. run all your sausage into the casing in one go, and twist afterwards - it's much easier to match the consistent pace of the machine if you're not stopping. 2. hang the sausages in a cold room or fridge for 24hrs - it allows the flavors to really meld together 3. your test patty should taste just a little more salty then you'd like - this will even out in the 24hr rest.

    Nice! BTW if you use pink salt aka curing salt, careful not to cook and taste before stuffing, it's a no no, it needs I think it needs to sit overnight in your fridge, unless you add sodium erythorbate, I saw that on 2 guys and a cooler, just food for thought, no pun intended 😉

    Dear Lord, I want to eat that sausage in this thumbnail. I grilled sausage tonight. Hot Italian from a great Italian market. Indirect heat on charcoal Weber for a total of 40 to 45 minutes, with plain ole Kingsford and some Applewod chunks for smoke. I'll be watching this. BTW, biggest key to great sausage, washing the casing 5 times to remove all the salt and keep it in ice water as your using it, just prior to stuffing.

    Do this for a living, rinse your casings better and let them soak longer. You shouldn't have to help it feed off the horn. Also don't know about your linking method. Pinch pinch then twist, am going to try the alternating direction of twist on my next shift though. There's no way you could do it that way making 75+lbs a day solo, You run the whole casing then link at the end.

    I'd never twist the sausages as they come out of the stuffer, it just slows you down so much and its just akward. Fill a skin, seal then twist them or twist and link. Just look at a butcher make saudage, he would never do that. Also the "don't mix too much" tip is nonsense. The mix needs to be mixed until the myocin breaks down and makes the mix sticky. Only then is it ready to stuff. Without this additional mix the sausages will not keep shape when cooked and be too crumbly. No mention of rusk here. Every sausage should have rusk to help with fat retention or else you get a hard dry sausage. Technique here is terrible, sausages full of air, you should not be pulling the skins off as they fill. You control the fill rate with your little finger pressure under the spout of the stuffer, those sausages were way too loose. Way too many mistakes here for this list to be useful.
