Yes, he has...!  All looks good though.  Can't wait to see the finished product.  What is that on the outside of the summer sausage (brown casings?).

IF we see a dust cloud coming out of Texas it just sonny's butt dragging in the dirt. Looks good man but boy have you been busy. My friends and I are getting ready to do a batch this weekend. It sure sounds like the kielbasa recipe is a good one.

The Spicy version of this Summer Sausage.

I had added 3 Tbs of red pepper flakes and a Tbs of Cayenne.

Very good looking Sonny. What plate did you use in your grinder. I like the looks of the grind. The second question is how hot was the peppered version? Now go to bed and get some sleep.

Pike, I used a fine grind on two fairly lean beef shoulder toast along with

some ground beef and a medium grind on the pork shoulder. The pork shoulder

was a tad bit on the fatty side and the beef was kinda lean so I used a 75/25

beef to pork ratio. The spicy version for 5lbs was dead on. (thanks Chris) If I

was to change it, I might drop the cayenne just a bit and add more red pepper.

Glad it worked out for you. I am getting the itch to make some sausage one wing or not I think I will get it figured out.
