Looking Good!! I'll have to try this one of these days.

I agree with CRG and Nappa, add me to that list.

The sausage turned out OK however it did not have the finished taste that I was looking for.  I may have just put too many ingredients in.  I think the thing that is overpowering the sausage is the onion that I put in it.  I used a big onion and diced it and I think the next time that I make it I will leave out the onion.  I put in 2 crushed bay leaves and I may leave that out next time too.  The nice thing about making your own stuff is you get to eat your mistakes.  I had some with red beans and rice  and it was good but it was just not dialed in the way that I want.  So it will be back to the drawing board.

Ready to be vac sealed.


Section that was cut.  Note all of the onion in the sausage.

If you're all that disappointed in it, please feel free to send it to me for  proper disposal. :)  I think it looks great and as you said the good part is you get to eat your mistakes and make some more.  Next time maybe onion powder rather than diced onion?

I agree with Ky

It looks great and i would love to take it off your hands  ;D

Be proud you did a great job.


Note: It will mellow and blend the longer it sits wrapped or vac.
