    So I’ve posted a few times but missed this Intro thread.
    I’m Jamie from Frankfort, IL (SW Burbs of Chicago). Been smoking meats for 25 years or so but had only done a single 30lb batch of sausage (Kitchen-Aid) many years ago until recently. Sure you can guess why a second batch didn’t follow. Now have a LEM Big Bite #8 and Hakka 15# stuffer and have done a couple hundred pound of sausage/snack sticks with them.
    Mainly cook on a built-in stainless steel Pitts & Spitts Maverick 1250 pellet smoker, Kamado Joe Big Joe II, and a Napoleon 38" 700 Series built-in gasser. Also just ordered a PK 100 for sausage/snack sticks/bacon/low-temp smoking. Guess you can say the sausage hook has been set.

      I’ve been sand bagging these forums for a while from Beaver Dam, WI. Hog processing is starting soon so its time got get active and put the information to use. I’ve done some domestic rabbit butchering before and harvested some deer, which produced the usual products. I’m very interested in getting into traditional meat preservation.

                                        Hi everyone, my name is John from El Dorado, KS, just outside of Wichita. New to sausage making and looking for some good recipes and grilling tips. Made hatch green chili pork brats last weekend and made Jambalaya and extra links for lunches. Loved both. Any other suggestions on seasonings or meats to try? Recipes? I’m liking the Excalibur Seasonings with some spice especially the hatch green chili and hot buffalo wing. What are you cooking lately?

                                          Hi everyone, my name is John from El Dorado, KS, just outside of Wichita. New to sausage making and looking for some good recipes and grilling tips. Made hatch green chili pork brats last weekend and made Jambalaya and extra links for lunches. Loved both. Any other suggestions on seasonings or meats to try? Recipes? I’m liking the Excalibur Seasonings with some spice especially the hatch green chili and hot buffalo wing. What are you cooking lately?
