Jonathon I was looking into buying the Waltons 50lbs mixer after bad experiences with the Weston 44lbs version. However, you mentioned that you guys are looking into changes. Would you reccomend to wait? Also, does the Waltons mixer have less parts? The weston had a lot of small parts that could easily be lost.

smokinbubba Hand crank for now, but eventually I’ll look to a grinder but that is 2-3 years off.

I saw them (about 10 or so) last year late November or early December, they were easily visible with the naked eye… I thought my eyes were fooling me until I did a little research. If I remember correctly, there will be more added to extend the range.

How long does everyone think a summer sausage’s shelf life is in the fridge (uncut)?
