Patty Maker sausage insert

Here is a list of FDA approved filaments. Sorry about the poor picture quality. I post with my phone and the table was to big to screen capture it, so I put it into word and took a pic of it. If you google FDA approved food safe 3d filament, you can find what you are looking for. Anyway, of note, I am only talking about me making an insert for myself and can only control what I have printed. I am not giving any advice on commercial use or whether this will hold up to USDA inspections. When I get everything tested and make the file available, it will be up to each person to research and decide if it is a viable option for your situation.

With the original patty maker having slightly tapered sides, could you not use the slider upside down and just make an insert to fit into the original patty maker for it to make the smaller breakfast patties.

That might be worth looking into as a cheaper option if I change the slider for thinner patties.

My next 3d print project. A new insert for my patty maker for sausage patties. This has 2 1/2” diameter holes. The holes are tapered as the original. I didn’t reduce the thickness of the patties. I will test it out with current thickness. After I test it out and make sure it works, I will share the file if anyone is interested in getting one made.

Grimpuppy I’d really appreciate that file!

I have had this EXACT SAME thought in my head for the last week or so. I made venison burgers last year and this year with the waltons patty maker and thought, "Surely they have a smaller breakfast sausage patty insert (obviously they do not) so I was commissioning my neighbor to machine a stainless spacer to just sit inside the patty hole, but still wondering how to keep it secured in there…you have a great idea! Throw some pics up when you get it finished and in use! Would be nice to be able to thin it down a bit.

Just got word from the printers that it is done. I should have it soon.

Grimpuppy Really looking forward to the results and you review on how it works.

Grimpuppy Is 2.5" industry standard on breakfast sausage patties?

So when I researched this online, Johnsonville stated their patties were 3 1/4”. I measured 3 different brands at the grocery store this weekend and they were all 2 1/2”. One of the brands was Johnsonville.

Grimpuppy Johnsonville also makes Brat Patties that are just over 3" in diameter, although they may not be available in all parts of the country. I know there’s no way that their breakfast patties are 3 1/4" in dia.

Bob Stehlik yes, I loved them brat patties. I need to remember to make my own but a little thicker when we get setup for brat processing day.

Ridley Acres Years ago I used to uncase the brats to make breakfast patties. I’d add some mare ground black pepper and marjoram an it was almost like German sausage patties. Love a good brat patty or German sausage patty with a fried egg on a hard roll, however hard rolls are impossible to find in Colorado, they must be a WI thing! A good Brat is good at anytime of the day.

Bob Stehlik Its interesting how regional some things are. Labor day 2019 we took the fam on vaca to NC OBX (outer banks Kitty Hawk area) and stopped at a Costco in VA when we got close to grab some brats for the stay, but they didn’t exist there!

PapaSop Every Sunday morning after Mass we would stop and get hard rolls and hot ham for breakfast. I really miss that. As kids we would poke a hole in the hard roll and stuff it full of hot ham. Sure was good!

Never stuffed one with hot ham but sounds delicious.

I have a couple friends that make brat patties. They make all their brats in the patty maker.

Hot ham and hard rolls on Sunday was/is a Wisconsin thing growing up. Never could find a decent hard roll outside of the state. Not sure why that is, sort of like trying to find a decent bear claw or elephant ear.
