    craigrice I’ve got a ton of different Excalibur brat seasonings I want to try but the grinding process slows me down. If I could find some pre-ground pork at a decent price I’d have sorts of sausage projects.

      craigrice I only have a #8 at the moment but it was one hell of an upgrade compared to using a Kitchen-Aid attachment. lol. 10 lbs is about all I can do with it easily. I don’t have much freezer room between grinds so that is my main obstacle.

                      craigrice This is the Kashmiri chili powder I will experiment with on subsequent batches.

                      Product description: JK Masale’s superior vibrant red Kashmiri red chili powder will add a subtle flavor and gorgeous color to your cooking! Similar in flavor to sweet paprika, it is known for its mild heat and deep red color.

                          craigrice They look awesome! and i loved canned beef! Haven’t thought about that is 20 years… Every time I start with a new recipe I think back to what was available 100 years ago and start there. Hasn’t failed me yet and I’m slow to get on the carrot fiber and all the new stuff bandwagon. I want to, just hard to stray from family tradition. I make what I like and if others like it too, great. If not, I don’t lose any sleep over it that’s for sure!

                                I’m definitely putting this on my “to do” list, and I’m also curious about the outcome of the red chili powder for both taste and color. Thanks for sharing!

                                      Joe Hell Chorizo grilled chicken wings? Did you marinate them in the chorizo and water? I’d think mixing in a little vinegar and then marinating them for a few hours and then sprinkle a little more on them just before you go to grill them would be a good idea!

                                        Jonathon I just gave them a good dusting and refrigerated for a few hours. I might go for a powdered vinegar seasoning to finish them. I’ve had acid do weird things with chicken. I tried the same mix last night on popcorn and it was awesome! I’m going to make some almonds tonight.

                                          The chorizo seasoning is simply wonderful. It has great chili flavor and a slight bit of heat. I’ve been eating Johnsonville chorizo recently as it was on sale. I was surprised by how good they were. The Excalibur seasoning really holds it’s own compared to the store bought offerings.

                                          chorizo.jpg

                                          I ground boneless/skinless chicken thighs with with close to a 30% mix of pork fat twice through the 3/16" plate. I wanted to make sure mine were bursting with flavor so I increased the recommended seasoning from 17 grams per pound to 18 and added a TBL of crushed red pepper to a 5 lbs batch for some extra heat. I’m glad I did because it may not have had the heat I was looking for without it. I also used the recommended amount of white vinegar. I didn’t notice a vinegar character with the test patties I made but by morning you could certainly smell it while loading the stuffer. It added a subtle twang that was just right.

                                          IMG_4126.jpg

                                          My only complaint is minor…they weren’t as ‘red’ as traditional chorizo. Not that that affects the flavor. I have a pretty intensely red chili powder I may add on the next batch…there will be many, many more batches of the chorizo in my future!
