Andouille !!!

While being outstanding as is, it makes an incredible component in a meatloaf.  That's a family favorite.

I got 10 pounds of pork cut into chunks.

(http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o290/stlthy1/DSCF6453.jpg)



Got my Andouille seasoning with 2 level tsp of cure #1. Going to get mixed into meat by hand with 3/4 cup cold water.
(http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o290/stlthy1/DSCF6449.jpg)


This is all mixed by hand 15 mins.
(http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o290/stlthy1/DSCF6454.jpg)


Going in fridge for 24 hours before stuffing into 32mm natural hog casing.

Hey a little on safety with pork in warm weather.

Wear gloves when handling. Change often.

After you wash all your equipment soak all in bleach water.

Doesn't it make stuffing more difficult if you add the cure the night before stuffing?  ???
Looks good so far.  :)

Here is 7 1/2 T of SPC added to 1 1/2 cup cold distilled water for the binder.

(http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o290/stlthy1/DSCF6464.jpg)


The Andouille got a little darker overnight.
(http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o290/stlthy1/DSCF6465.jpg)

Added the SPC to the meat. Mix this up by hand. If you use a machine it will create heat and soften the meat mix.
(http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o290/stlthy1/DSCF6466.jpg)


Got the Andouille stuffed.
(http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o290/stlthy1/DSCF6467.jpg)

(http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o290/stlthy1/DSCF6468.jpg)


I ran outta casings. So i made 1/4 pound of Andouille stick  ;D
(http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o290/stlthy1/DSCF6469.jpg)


Here it all is hanging. Going to get PID heat at 140* for 1.5 hours then bumped to 150* with some sassafras chunks i have for 2 hours.

Good looking stuff.  I have no idea as to what SPC binder is so I did a search and I hope this is not what you used.

Using sulfur polymer cement (SPC) as a binder to stabilize/solidify lead-contaminated soils. SPC, which has been used as a construction material because of its excellent resistance to acid and salt environments and its superior water tightness as compared with Portland cement concrete, has recently emerged as a possible alternative binder to stabilize/solidify soils contaminated with hazardous, low-level radioactive and mixed wastes. ;D

I would be interested in knowing what SPC is.  Great job!
