I have it down to the things I want to keep. Other then the pasta
machine which I think will get donated or gifted to my daughter as being
GF it's just easier to make them with a rolling pin.

I do both - but haven't used the stuffer in longer than I care to
think about. My patty press? That's a different story.

Even when I buy sausage I cut the meat out for myself, I just can't seem
to process the casing, even when I make sure it's a natural casing.

Something like this? My Humphrey's Market features "Bacon Sizzler
Patties" every few weeks in ntheir ad. I always buy at least a pound
of the 4 oz. patties and me and my Geiorge Foreman have a party.

Laugh, exactly like this. I've made them once, I just checked and it
was before I started keeping track so I may have just found a recipe online and used it as a starting point.

Title: Ground Bacon Burger
in a food processor and roughly chop.

I do know I used a food processor as I don't have a grinder anymore.

I've got ... comes back from checking shelf in pantry .... a food/meat
grinfer, full-size food processor, a small food processor (mini-chopper)
a set of shredder/slicer blades for the food processor, a set of attachments for the stand mixer and a pasta roller machine. You've seen pixtures of my
work area so you know it's a major job to clear enough space to employ any
of those tools.

Oh, yeah, I've got a sausage stuffer set-up for both the meat grinder and
the CuisinArt Stand mixer.

I made a batch of this sausage (one of my favourites) to take to the
Canadian Caper picnic last century. To get it ready to serve I borrowed
the top of an oval roasting pan and filled it with LaBatts beer to cook
the sausages, then grilled them over open flame. Served on bratwurst
sized rolls with the sliced onions and bell peppers that c ooked in the
beer whilst simmering the sausages. No leftovers.

Thinking back on it - I believe my sister and I are the only attendees
of that picnic still above the grass ... except possibly Benita Bell.

Categories: Sausage, Pork, Chilies
Yield: 3 Pounds

2 lb Pork butt
1/2 lb Pork fat
1/3 lb Ham and ham fat
10 cl Garlic; peeled
1 ts White pepper
2 tb Sage
1/2 ts Cayenne

(which is only THREE spices - UDD)

Grind the pork butt, pork fat, ham and garlic on the
large hole plate of a meat grinder.

Place ground meat in a bowl, add spices and mix
thoroughly.

You can sautee a small quantity of the mixture and taste
for seasoning.

You may want to add more spices, salt, pepper or garlic.

Stuff sausages into pork casings (available at most large
meat stores or your friendly local butcher).

You can saute sausages over low heat with a little butter
for 15 to 20 minutes, or poach in simmering liquid.

You may grill them as well.

Serve with cold beer.

I used to have a lot, but even throwing things out I can't move. :) We
did throw out the ice cream maker, 2 eccespro machines but it didn't make
any room. :)

for the stand mixer and a pasta roller machine. You've seen pixtures

I have one of these, but other then trying it once, it was more of a pain
in the rear then it was worth. I mainly make home made pasta for lasugna
and if it's just normal stuff we buy a GF brand. Of course I can't buy
that brand now for political reasons that I am not allowed to discuss.

Oh, yeah, I've got a sausage stuffer set-up for both the meat grinder
and the CuisinArt Stand mixer.

My stand mixer is from the early 80's and is all plastic and a sunbeam
that doesn't support any add ons. It works though.

Title: Garlic Sausage

I have made sausage but I make patties instead of stuffing them in a
case.
