Grinding And Mixing for Breakfast Sausage and Brats

Every other 99.9% of the time. Have done all three.

Every other link for me.

I twist every other one. I just find this easier. I always wanted to do the butches knot but so far I’ve decided to do what I’m used to and what works for me.

I have a wood burning kit and I thought about burning in measurements for linking on my cutting board

Every other is my standard, if smoking it depends on the sausage

good lookin eats - thanks for sharing. For some reason I twist two in a row (so I can fold them to get two the same size) and then cut the two off. I freeze the two linked together and then cut the two apart, and vacuum seal. I guess it works for me.

I’ve read through and forgotten so many posts that when something like this happens it’s kind of refreshing. Get to look back and go, oh yeah, now I remember. Or it’s just CRS. LOL

Looks like a good days work! I’m still struggling with making links. I’ve been using my grinder with a foot switch to stuff & Ithink I’m just filling them too full. I’m getting a stuffer for my b-day so hopefully that’ll help.

bleathery A stuffer should definitely help, I think it is easier to control.

PapaSop Every once in a while, I just go to the random tab and look at old posts just for fun.

PapaSop thanks that makes me feel better .

bleathery I use to use my grinder to stuff, a long time ago. You will have a better product with a stuffer. With a grinder you are working your farce again and heating it up. It will take some practice with the stuffer and the casing to know what you are looking/feeling. It is better to under stuff slightly because you can tighten up with linking.

I too have been there and done that.
