    @ridley-acres @Jonathan Sounds like you have another video option for “buckboard bacon”.

    I’m interested. Does this nutritionist have a blog going someplace already, or an Instagram account to follow?

    @departing-contestant I agree, I always add a little even to fresh sausage to help with the mixing process. I don’t add as much as I do when going to stuff it.

    Walton's Electric Sausage Stuffer Review Attend this entry level class from Meatgistics University by watching the video, reading the article and post any questions you have! Walton's has spent over 2 years working with our manufacturer to create an Electric Sausage Stuffer that can run all types of sausages, including snack sticks! We are happy to announce we have finalized the design and production and will have them in stock this year! (2022) The Walton’s E-Series, 20 and 30 lb Sausage Stuffers are currently available on waltons.com at Walton’s 20 lb and Walton’s 30 lb. The Walton’s E-Series Sausage Stuffers come with 4 stuffing tubes from 13mm to 38mm, a foot pedal to operate the motor, all stainless steel construction, a drawer in the base to store tubes, and a manual handle if you want to hand crank. The 13mm tube will allow you to do snack stick-sized sausages. 21mm smoke collagens will slide right on, and 19mm are possible with a little effort. When using the Electric Motor for Snack Sticks we recommend between .75 and 1.5 liters of water per 25 lb batch. The higher the water content the easier it will stuff, but the motor does have the power to stuff snack sticks with .75 liters of water when using a pork meat block. If you do use a binder, then Sure Gel is the only acceptable binder to be used. We do not approve of using other binders, especially Soy Protein Blend, for making snack stick-sized casings with the Electric Motor. The Electric Sausage Stuffer has sensors in the gearbox that tell it when the piston is all the way down or all the way up, so it will stop (when up) or reverse direction (when down). This is both for convenience and to protect the motor. The units will remove any guesswork with a label on the motor showing what speed setting is appropriate for the type of sausage. Each meat batch is slightly different, so will require experimentation on the user’s part to find the perfect speed for stuffing. Our stuffing tubes were redesigned specifically for this Sausage Stuffer. The angle of the slope allows for less pressure build-up than the “bell”-shaped tubes. Features: 30 lb cannister All Stainless Steel Construction Electric Motor Foot Pedal Built-in Circuit Protector Piston markings show remaining amount in cannister Drawer in the base for storage Strong plunger gasket Air release valve Should you buy an Electric Sausage Stuffer? Walton's Electric Sausage Stuffers can be a great tool in your home processing kitchen. By using a motor instead of having to hand crank the piston you can more easily make sausage by yourself! Because of the force that is required to push meat through the small stuffing tubes required for making snack sticks, the correct amount of water and additves must be used. If you are someone who does not add water to your meat as you are mixing and stuffing then an electric stuffer is not going to work for snack sticks for you! Also, remember that different meats have different water contents and densities, so proteins like pork will be much easier to stuff than denser proteins like beef, or elk.

    @papasop said in Any quick responses?: The #12 arrived today. This should work well for doing smaller batches. A little more manageable than the beast. And the preamble shirt. [image: 1656181151629-pxl_20220625_174415191.jpg] I would just keep it in the bathroom. That grinder can double as a mirror for when you shave in the morning.

    @Denny-O No need to be sorry, the hot pepper cheese is basically a Monterey jack, which never had enough flavor for me. I use |High-Temp-Cheddar-Cheese for a few snack sticks like |Willie-s-Snack-Stick-Seasoning and |Habanero-BBQ-Snack-Stick-or-Summer-Sausage and then I use |High-Temp-Ghost-Pepper-Cheese for anything I want to add heat too and |High-Temp-Mozzarella-Cheese for most everything else. |High-Temp-Swiss-Cheese Only comes into play with a few seasonings, usually the ones that I want the creaminess of some extra cheese but no strong cheese flavor.

    So, we keep trying to make improvements to the website. The new theme as of two Sundays ago has been a great success in my mind. We have been trying to fix some shipping things and hopefully I will have that nailed down by early next week and today we made some changes to the search feature on waltons.com. I removed the categories showing in your search results, then we removed the suggestion section where it would take a word that have nothing to do with meat processing and suggest that you might have wanted that instead, wish I could think of a good one right now but it wold be like if you searched hog casing, it would say did you mean hag facing above the actual product results. We also have it where we can actually serve you the High Temp Cheese as the first results if you search cheese! Amazing I know! The one that really annoyed me was when you searched stuffer the 1st thing was the Suction Cup Feet ahead of the actual stuffers! Anyone, if anyone is monkeying around with search on the website and they see something that seems odd, please use this post as the place to put them. We will correct them as we find them! Thanks guys!

    @Dave-in-AZ Dont quote me on this yet, but I am fairly certain it has something to do with prerigor processing. We have a few customers Scimecas up in KC is the one I know for sure that do prerigor processing and that requires different formulations. I will try to find out more info tomorrow though!

    @dave-in-az Very nice, especially the lug tip. I always like the free ones though, especially if food grade & clean. Back in the 70’s you could often get this stuff for free from the cafeterias, etc. as they would change them out after so long, including stainless, & get new ones. The old ones still had lots of life left in them & they were happy to give them to you if you asked. Those were the days!
