    mrobisr Ok, I am going out on a limb but I dont believe the Roman’s had microwave ovens! Just saying…

    You never know Sam, the Flintstones were fairly advanced for stone age times and the Romans came after them, lol.

        This is a combination recipe that I have settled on between a Penrose Hot Sausage Recipe recreation by John Venning and the Utopenci recipe.

        During the years I have added all the ingredients to a batch and have left some out on another batch and have yet to be let down.

        Ingredients
        • __- 1/2 cup water
        • __- 2 cups white vinegar
        • __- 1/2 tbs Chipotle chili powder
        • __- 1 tbs red pepper flakes
        • __- 1 tsp minced Garlic, I use fresh, but both work
        • __- 1 tbs dried minced onion, I use fresh, but both work
        • __- 1 tsp Paprika, smoked works very well too
        • __- 1/2 tsp white pepper
        • __- 1 tbs salt
        • 1 tbs mustard seed
        • 20 whole peppercorns
        • Bay leaf
        • __- Lg pinch all spice
        • __- 28 oz pkg Hillshire Farms 'lil Smokies, or other precooked link sausage, cut in two. (MUST be precooked!) Kielbasa sliced about 1/2 inch thick works also. Hot dogs just don’t work.
        • __- Or, use to pickle Boiled Eggs!
        Steps

        1. 1* On medium-high heat, combine the water, salt, vinegar, and spices.
        2. 2* Bring the mixture to a boil. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes in a well ventilated area.
        3. NOTE: when you’re simmering the brine, make sure you have a ventilator fan running or a window and door open, the vinegar and Cayenne pepper boiling is kinda’ hard on a the eyes! Almost like mace…
        4. 3* Place precooked sausage into a 1 qt sterile jar. Fill jar but don’t pack tightly.
        5. 4* Pour the hot vinegar mixture in with the sausage, If there isn’t enough, add some vinegar. Secure the lid.
        6. 5* Let cool, then place in the fridge, keep refrigerated.
        7. 6* Ready to eat in 7 to 14 days.
        8. When opened for the first time, there will be a layer of fat on top and the underside of the lid, remove if you want too.

          Yes it is good with eggs too and I like to add dill when I do the eggs, but that is what’s so fun is to experiment and try different spices and herbs. You can add turmeric or beet juice for color if desired, I never do, but some like the color.

            I know to some this will be truly offensive, but to some pickled sausage is heavenly. I cheated and used store bought smokies because my freezer is seriously lacking homemade sausage right now, but it is still amazing. I prefer kielbasa, but have used the smokies in the past and they work extremely well. 20220130_194937.jpg

            Couple weeks from now I’ll have some seriously tasty treats.

            mrobisr good looking jars. Never thought about using those little sausages, great idea. I like a lot of things pickled, eggs, pig feet, hocks, etc… Now I am going to have to try a batch of those.

              Tex_77 Never cared for pickled eggs, I do like pickled turkey gizzards though, first found them in a bar in a small town where I used to work in MN.

                  YooperDog oh that all sounds so good, you guys are making it extremely hard to leave those sausages in the brine long enough.

                        mrobisr They had them there and would have a small knife and cutting board with a package of saltine crackers, you would slice them up and eat them on crackers. Pretty good with a cold beer after work.

                            I completely agree with that statement!

                              ND Mike Guess I shouldn’t say since I haven’t tried them but the Pickled Beets in so many of the pickling recipes on the internet just don’t inspire me

                                      Here is an opened jar (not the best presentation) of pickled Willie’s snack sticks. A friend of mine started making them and shared the recipe with me.

                                        processhead We’ve got several jars (gallons) of peppers with garlic & onions fermenting to make hot sauce from the end of the road peppers last week. I can see a connection.

                                          calldoctoday I have never made them, but I am sure they cooked them first and then pickled.
