    Joe Hell I use blue ribbon brat seasoning for 25# batch and grind 23# pork butt one time using 3/16 plate when making brats. Stuff in natural hog casing. Makes a good brat.

        On the blue ribbon brats I left out a step. I mix the seasoning in one quart of ice water and after the grind using 3/16 plate I put the meat in the mixer and add the water seasoning mixture and mix 3 to 5 minutes than stuff into natural hog casings.

          Are you getting any protein extraction at say the 5 minute mark? I’d rather not have that on a fresh brat. I’ve been mixing by hand but have not done 25# at one time. Just curious.

              craigrice Nice! I have the cheddarwurst seasoning that I’ve been wanting a to try for a while now. I ground chicken thighs and pork fat twice through the 3/16" for some chorizo and I thought the grind was perfect.

                  PapaSop At 3 to 5 minutes you don’t get protein extraction. At about 2 to 3 minutes you can feel the meat start to tighten up from the seasoning. Thats when I mix just a little longer then stuff. I’ve done smaller batches by hand and you can feel when the meat starts to tighten up. Then is the time to add cheese if you are using it. Hope this helps.
