    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

      More likely from my older brother rubbing my face in the dirt which is what beets taste like to me!

        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.

          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.

                  Here is the recipe for the pickle that I used on the deer sticks I make.

                  Pickled Deer Sticks
                  Ingredients
                  • 2 lbs deer sticks
                  • 1 small onion, sliced
                  • 1 cup water
                  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
                  • 3 cups white vinegar
                  • 2 cloves garlic (crushed) per 1 pt jar
                  • 1 carrot cut into thin slices
                  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
                  • 1 tablespoon pickling spices
                  • 1 tablespoon pickling salt
                  Directions
                  Cut deer sticks into approx. 2.5 inch links (do not reheat them) and put into jars with a few slices of onion.
                  Bring to a boil the rest of the ingredients and simmer five minutes.
                  Pour hot mixture into jars (prefer mason or canning jars other types may explode)over onions and sausages.
                  Put lid on jars and carefully hide in the refrigerator at least a day- two days is better-

                        I would describe it as mild to moderate.

                          The pickled onion, carrot and garlic all get eaten up when the sticks get served. I like the veggies as much as the sticks.

                                Yep I agree they are either pickled dirt, buttered dirt, or boiled dirt, but still dirt.

                                  I’m actually surprised to find so much support for pickled sausage, there has only been one hard “NO”. Around my crowd there are very few of us that find pickled sausage as a delicacy.

                                    • 2 cloves garlic (crushed) per 1 pt jar
                                    • 1 carrot cut into thin slices
                                    • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
                                    • 1 tablespoon pickling spices
                                    • 1 tablespoon pickling salt
                                    Directions
                                    Cut deer sticks into approx. 2.5 inch links (do not reheat them) and put into jars with a few slices of onion.
                                    Bring to a boil the rest of the ingredients and simmer five minutes.
                                    Pour hot mixture into jars (prefer mason or canning jars other types may explode)over onions and sausages.
                                    Put lid on jars and carefully hide in the refrigerator at least a day- two days is better-

                                      processhead Carrot is a great addition
                                      I like to try different seasoning ideas in snack sticks and summer sausage.
                                      Any time they turn out less than expected they get pickled!

                                      The pickled onion, carrot and garlic all get eaten up when the sticks get served. I like the veggies as much as the sticks.

                                      processhead I agree the vegetables are very good and I do add them, but this was and experimental batch with dehydrated bell peppers and only two jars so I didn’t add any.

                                        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.

                                          Here is the recipe for the pickle that I used on the deer sticks I make.

                                          Pickled Deer Sticks
                                          Ingredients
                                          • 2 lbs deer sticks
                                          • 1 small onion, sliced
                                          • 1 cup water
                                          • 3/4 cup brown sugar
                                          • 3 cups white vinegar
                                          • 2 cloves garlic (crushed) per 1 pt jar
                                          • 1 carrot cut into thin slices
                                          • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
                                          • 1 tablespoon pickling spices
                                          • 1 tablespoon pickling salt
                                          Directions
                                          Cut deer sticks into approx. 2.5 inch links (do not reheat them) and put into jars with a few slices of onion.
                                          Bring to a boil the rest of the ingredients and simmer five minutes.
                                          Pour hot mixture into jars (prefer mason or canning jars other types may explode)over onions and sausages.
                                          Put lid on jars and carefully hide in the refrigerator at least a day- two days is better-
