Newbie here…just thought I would share a photo of my first attempt at Kielbasa…I should have made the coils smaller…this homemade sausage hobby sure is addictive…I’m going to need a bigger freezer for all of the different kinds I would like to try

A #6 eye of round seasoned with homemade hot sauce as the binder and Walton’s Ultimate Steak and Roast Rub…onto the Memphis pellet grill @ 180’ for 3 hours…seared off into the Sous Vide at 133’ for 24 hours…sliced and served up with some Yorkshire Puddings !!!

ND Mike … all beef chuck was the meat block…grilled them for lunch with homemade hot dog buns with all the fixings…the wife loved them, so that’s always a win !!!

My first attempt at hot dogs, just in time for the 4th…ground the meat block once through a 10mm plate, 2 times through a 3mm, then back in the freezer for 45 minutes, 2 more times through the 3mm using my #22 Waltons grinder…less than 5 minutes per grind, easy peasy…I think the grind looks a lot like something a buffalo chopper would produce…smoke, sous vide, ice bath, refrigerate, vac pack and freeze

Dave in AZ …check out 2 guys and a cooler youtube channel…there are tons of recipes and step by step instructions and scaleable recipe page

I use the dough hook on my kitchen aid and mix 6.25 pounds at a time…I get great protein extraction mixing on speed #2 for 8 minutes scraping down the sides halfway through.

Well I decided on the Walton’s #22 grinder…go big or go home !!! and for another $60 is was really a no brainer…this thing is a beast…just did a 25# batch of Kielbasa…it took just minutes to grind and the second grind was just as fast as the first…and the plastic stomper, who needs it, the second grind went as fast as I could feed it…less than 24 hours from clicking the purchase button it showed up at my house in Texas…I should have upgraded my grinder ages ago !!!

Just finished up my first attempt making Umai dry cured pepperoni sausage. I followed the directions provided. The directions say to use 10mm-12mm plate to grind but I think I would reduce the size of the grind on the fat to the 4.5mm plate and keep the lean meat grind at 10mm. It was a remarkable easy process and took 4 weeks to achieve a 40% weight loss. I used the spice package provided and which a slight fennel taste which I didn’t mind at all. I think I will try a different spice mix next time along with the grind changes but overall I think it was a very successful experiment !!!

Looks great…I wish there was a cloth apron with the Waltons logo on it…easier to clean and not so bulky…Austin Jonathon Tremblay any plans for that in the future ???

YooperDog You probably got them in the city of West , TX…best koloches ever !!! We get them at the “Czech Stop” in West every time we travel from Fort Worth to Austin !!!

I also have the Cuisinart 14 cup…love it.

Definitely something durable with all the bells and whistles …I’d be onboard with paying extra for some personalization

Jonathon …Woot Woot !!! Thanks Jonathan and Waltons !!! One can never have too many toys for the kitchen !!!

VÄESKE Insulated Large Sous Vide Container with Lid and Racks Kit | Neoprene Retains Heat | Sous Vide Accessories (26 QT, Container/Sleeve/Racks) $139 on Amazon…works great for sausage and the neoprene sleeve works great.

On the last months give away live stream, Jonathon was proudly showing off the prototype for the new walton’s electric stuffer. Did anyone notice if they had a target date for sale and/or what was the target price?? Just had my second elbow surgery and can now justify the purchase to my wife

Y’all deserve it for all the advice and recommendations y’all give us newbies…keep up the good work

Surg left over wine ??? I’ve never heard of such a thing

Jonathon wow, 25K for a drying cabinet…an expensive little hobby you have started

Bruss If I place my order before 5pm central I will usually get my order delivered to Fort Worth TX before 4 pm next day using economy…just my 2 cents
