    If this counts as a project, my neighbor gave me about 5lbs of speckled trout, so I took the 10 minutes to portion it out.

          Well, decided to see if grinding the garlic (rather than boiling it whole), placing it in cheese cloth and dipping in warm water before squeezing out the juice is better. So, made Slovenian klobase with salt/pepper/garlic juice in a small 5 lb batch. The sausages are resting in the fridge until the temp drops outside to cold smoke them(Friday). Thinking this option is good because those sausages are permeating every crevice in the living area after I open the fridge.20220216_141453.jpg

            Got my grinding done today so I can make some chili dogs with jalapeño and cheddar on Friday. Can’t wait.

                      In addition to the W beef sticks, last weekend the crew and I made 25 lbs of kielbasa and 25 lbs of blue ribbon brats, some with cheddar, pepper jack cheese and plain brats.
                      Too much to smoke here, so we split the smoking up three ways.

                      Good to have the son’s and son in laws getting in on the fun.

                            Everyone thought the kielbasa had a great flavor. We made it from 50/25/25 venison, pork butt, pork fat. We used the Excalibur kielbasa seasoning.
                            The hog casings were a little tough. I think maybe they are showing their age. But overall a very good sausage.

                                Its a collective effort. Yes, they are a great crew, but the guys with beards are a little sketchy.
                                They seem overly anxious to start drinking while working. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

                                      processhead Great assortment of sausages. Great crew you have there. I assume you pay them in sausage & beer.

                                      Its a collective effort. Yes, they are a great crew, but the guys with beards are a little sketchy.
                                      They seem overly anxious to start drinking while working. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

                                      processhead Just keep them away from sharp knives and grinders.

                                        It’s been a long held tradition that a hat is a requirement when you make sausage in my kitchen.
                                        If you arrive and don’t have a hat, one will be issued to you and you have to wear it. Traditions are important, and fun when you get to decide what hat someone has to wear.
                                        No dress code yet on the lederhosen.
