Took out 4 lb coarse ground pork lastnight, let thaw in the fridge overnight and this morn got things ready to make some sausage.

First, soak the casings in some warm water wile I get the seasongs ready



To start, mix 1 scant tea cure #1 in 1/2 cup distilled water and 1/4 cup red wine vinegar, set aside

Mince 6 cloves fresh garlic and dump in the liquid



The seasonings,  in the middle, 1 Tbl & 1 tea Kosher Flake salt, to the left of that is 2 Tbl California sweet paprika and clock wise we got, 1 Tbl ground coriander, 1 tsp crushed red pepper, 1/2 tsp all spice, 1/2 tsp ground Indonesia cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ground clove, mix all that in the liquid



The pork



Mix in all the good stuff



Stuffed and hangin at room temp wile the smoker comes up to temp



Here we go, after one hr at 110 F its time to start the smoke (2 hr Pecan) and bump the temp up to 120 F



Gonna bump the temp up 10 deg every hr till a max temp of 170 F and hold it there till the IT hits 160 F

See ya in a bit  ;D

Be careful about calling yourself and EXPERT! An ex is a has-been, and a spurt is a drip under pressure!

looks great - Were they just in a regular fridge or one that was humidity controlled?

sorry for all the questions but it looks good ---- is it all coarse ground or course ground and "chunks" added?
