    I’ve started working on a recipe for Jagdwurst for my next project. It’s a German-cooked sausage that is all pork and contains fine and coarse particles. I’m curious if anyone has made this before?

    Pivodog I made a ‘prototype’ tamale brat the other day with the Mexi-Chorizo blend, ghost Chile high temp cheese, local made chicken tamales and a Mexican style lager. It turned out amazing! This next week I’m making a ‘pot sticker’ sausage that tastes just like what you expect and doubles as the filling for the real thing if you prefer. I’m also going to dabble in a Moroccan style sausage with Couscous.

      slowmoe You will have better luck if you use dehydrated pineapples. The bromelain won’t be able to mix in with the meat as easily this way. For salsa snack sticks I’d use either the Taco Snack Stick and add some tomato and cilantro, or start with the Salsa Brat and try using 10% more seasoning per lb of meat. You would do this because it is not formulated for a cured sausage and the cured sausages will usually have a higher salt content than a fresh sausage like a Bratwurst.

      Jonathon I’ve been thinking about using freeze dried pineapple for an ‘Al Pastor’ brat. I’ve used dehydrated in the past and there was no distinguishable pineapple flavor…just sweet.

                What’s your next Meat Project?
                You ask, humm, me thinks mes gots more than one. TE He,he.

                First of all things that I’ve never done before.
                1, Turn a pork butt into a cured ham like one I get in Little Falls MN,
                2, Sliced fresh netted ham, I’ve only done one 40 years ago,
                3, Breaded and fried deer heart, (ok, not a smoked item but still,)

                Second things that are still in the works to do better,
                1, Everything I’ve done before!
                2, Deer bacon to taste more like bacon and to have a large chunk with smaller filler within the slice with great bacon smokey flavor
                3, Deer summer sausage to compliment the SS w/ smoked pepper cheese that I already do that seems to be #1 for most all of my friends
                4, Deer meat sticks that have a juicy smoky flavor with cheddar cheese and a great fresh snap when they are bit into.

                Ok, enough for now.

                    The mustard seed is another very nice touch, imo.

                      Looks like it will be Landjaegers. The kid had some from Bavarian Meats, a local producer here in Washington that now is selling to Costco. Not the same product as they sell to local meat shop. I told him we could make them. Noting the “We”. I have found a recipe since I don’t like that Excalibur uses dill in theirs, it is not traditional, so I modified the one I found and will use a smaller casing as well. Everybody seems to like the larger 35mm casing, we are going with 28-30mm hog casing instead, that is also more in keeping with the German style. Just ordered some more supplies from Walton’s but will have to wait for UPS to drag their feet, since I think we live at the edge of the earth in Washington with their deliveries and me being semi-rural.

                          Sounds awesome! Love Landjaeger there’s a German butcher about an hour from me and I always get some when I’m out that way. I tried the excalibur seasoning and did a snack stick version but wasn’t too thrilled about how it came out. It was one of my earlier snack stick batches and it was my first time using encapsulated citric acid so maybe that factored in. Will try again. Are you planning the true cured version? Do you use a chamber? Would love to get into curing more but haven’t bought or made a chamber yet. Haven’t even made a basic salami yet.

                            Surg Not the true version, way to much work for that, plus you need a really reliable source for the pork. Just going to use some encapsulated citric acid, probably half of what is generally called for. Some of the old recipes call for Fermento, but the citric acid will do. I don’t have a fermentation chamber, can’t see that investment, rather put it in a bigger smoker or larger equipment.

                                    Jonathon First when you are harvesting the deer, wash out the heart very well by squeezing and relaxing the muscle as if it was pumping. stick your fingers in the holes to help loosen the coagulated blood.
                                    Slice 1/2 to 3/4" thick horizontal and trim out the artery walls because they are extremely tough.
                                    Season flour, dredge the slices in the seasoned flour and fry in shallow oil pan like minute steak or the like.

                                      Slice 1/2 to 3/4" thick horizontal and trim out the artery walls because they are extremely tough.
                                      Season flour, dredge the slices in the seasoned flour and fry in shallow oil pan like minute steak or the like.

                                      @dennyo best to snack on the same day. I have stuffed them with wild rice and slow cooked. But slicing it up and snacking on with a beer at the end of the day is cooking it up like you mentioned.

                                        I’ve started working on a recipe for Jagdwurst for my next project. It’s a German-cooked sausage that is all pork and contains fine and coarse particles. I’m curious if anyone has made this before?

                                          I’m about to attempt to make “Bierschinken” aka Beer Ham this weekend! Here’s a picture of what it looks like. Wish me luck!

                                          I’ll post results if and pictures if all goes well!
