i have made kit breakfast sausage before but i used your resipe and added more sage and a tad less cayenne and this is the best breakfast sausage on earth so i thank you!!!!!
I enjoyed your video Sir, thank you for posting! 🙋 I'm wondering what brand and what hp rating your grinder is. I'm buying one next month and looking to compare different grinders. Thanks again.
I recently started making my own ground sausage, and it is far superior in how it cooks up than any store bought sausage I've had. I'm still tweaking my recipe, but that's what makes making your own so great; you get to tailor it to your own specific taste. Thanks for posting.
Many thanks for sharing your recipe from South Korea!!! Just wondering how did you connect to meat grinder machine and manually meat mixters? any joint we need?
Thanks for your fast reply! Sir! My question was that I have already Meat grinder , but I would like to buy that Meat mixter box(20lbs or less) you use, so it's any joints part I need to connect between Grinder and meat mixter?? Just wondering!!! Besides that wonderful your invented foot switch!!
Just a tip, I haul meat and alot of it gets dropped on the floor that's walked on with everything and I see the people just pick it up and package it. Guy told me to mind my business when I asked him was he going to wash it off.. He said his job was packing it up not to wash it. So people rinse your meat off.
New to making sausage, so we made up 5 different recipes in 1 lb test packages. We've tried 4 of the 5 and so this is the HANDS DOWN FAVORITE. !!!!!!!!!!! One comment: I rebelled against using the expensive "ground meat tubes" and instead, found that 1 lb fits nicely into a 1 quart zip-lock bag, pressed flat and frozen. To cook, rip off the baggie and cut into 16 squares..... Love it. js
That's awesome John! Glad to hear you enjoyed it. Not sure if the "expensive" meat bags was a joke or not. I pay less than.05 bag. Happy to share other recipes!
Greetings from Thornton Colorado! I stumbled on a 1 1/2 hp Thunderbird meat grinder on Craigslist for $100.00. Saw same model on Amazon for about $800.00. New to curing,sausage making etc and grinder works like a dream. Just subscribed to your channel. May I say that is some backyard.
Does mr Ross have a TH-cam channel? I looked for more of his videos but this one and makin bacon, and smoked oysters were all I found. I could watch this dude process meat all night. He makes it look so easy
Jay hac he’s my brother in law and part of the My Back Yard crew. He’s a technician when it comes to processing any kind of meat. When you’re with Ron, you’re eating good.
Hey Ron and Brent, nice video. I'm sure we watched this before, and commented, but seems I didn't. But then again I was sure I left my shoes by the door last night, and here they are by the couch! 😲 "Short" term memory is no longer my "Long" suit anymore! I see you recommended, in another comment, a 50/50 mixture of fat to meat for venison. Would you recommend the same with Moose meat? It is also very lean, and if you harvest a "bruiser" can also be very tough. A friend got a Moose last Fall, gave us some hamburger. Was very dry. Reground 4lbs, with 1lb of bacon ends, and was MUCH better. Suggestions? I do have a inexpensive source for pure pork trimmings, (.99 cents / lb), and whole pork butt's same price. Any other recipes for Beef/Moose/Venison sausage, besides the Brat's, would be great! Thanks, Mark and Rosa
An air hose with a rag wrapped around the end of the tube and an air blower nozzle ( Kind of like pressuring the gas tank on a vehicle ) is the magic trick for cleaning out the stuffing tube.
I don't have a specific recipe, but I do have a couple of rough rules of thumb... , mix the venison with about 50% pork butt, or 25% pork butt, and 25% fatty beef trimming ( 50/50 fat to lean). Venison is very lean, and you need to add a lot of fat to have a juicy sausage. I will try to post a pepperoni recipe in a couple days..
Just starting out making Snags what sort of smoker do I need I was thinking electric.! I see there’s lots of cheaper ones or is it better to just bite the bullet and buy the dearer ones.? Shane Hako 🇦🇺
I also have a Cabela's 1 hp #22. Let's just say they arent what they should be. That being said If you grind the second run into your bag then use the stuffing star or stuffing plate,kidney plate, no knive and your plunger sparingly it will stuff much easier. I have also found that if you add more water, beer or wine to the mix just prior to stuffing it slide right thru and into your tube. Also this will reduce the smearing of the meat which which you do not want to do. that being said,your videos are very good and enjoyable.
Thank you. I've had great luck with my grinder, but it is older. If you put an ice pack around the throat and neck, it really helps stop the smear. Also try to have the meat partially frozen.
Yes using partially frozen meat works the best, also if need be pull the whole attachment off and put into the freezer between batches. Mine along with everyone I have seen on TH-cam or in videos work the same. I now tell people that want a grinder to find an old one and they will not be disappointed. Old Hobarts, Enterprise, Sanitary, Toledo, Etc. are 100x's the grinders. You can throw all you want at them and they just ask for more. Moreover where they shine is on the 2nd and 3rd grinds and on grinding and stuffing at the same time. The good part about Cabelas/weston is all of the cool attachments.
Where are you located if you don't mind me asking? I am going to retire soon and that looks like a good place to chill out and make sausages for the rest of my days.
If you can it, you precook it; I don’t recommend it. MSG: if you leave it out, you might want to add salt. Try it in small proportions to get the flavor you like.
@@my-back-yard In the video you say the recipe is for 5 pounds but the recipe say 20 pounds, is it 5 or 20? I want to make sure I put enough spice in it.
Pork shoulder buts is sold in smart foodservice warehouse stores former "cash & carry ". Some of them have glands size of hazelnut or walnut. They need to be cut out.
Sergey Kravchenko, I did mention that in the video, but probably didn't hit it hard enough. It is important to get the glands out! Thank you for making it clearer than I did!
I don't see spices mix ingredients and amounts. In the video or under the title where most put it. Why did you not add fat? I made mine with shoulder and some fatty bacon because I can't get pork fat without buying 30# box.
@@my-back-yard I used a 7.3 lb. Pork shoulder plus one pound of bacon that was mostly fat. Hardly any lean. Mine fried dry and was crumbly. I did not add water. Our most famous NC sausage Neese must have a 70 to 30 ratio of fat. NEESE has no msg, no preservatives and no nitrites. Semi air dried sausage is popular in Eastern nc. The breakfast sausage is put in casings and into a cool box to cure fore 7 days. Old timers hung it outside in cold weather. They never used nitrites. I might build a cure box but I want a recipe that works first. Pork fat is hard to find and I have to buy 30 pounds. I will never use that much. Guess I could freeze it. We have blueberries so I'll try a blueberry maple sausage this spring.
It has one available for it. Smart question! Before buying a grinder make sure that knives, plates, mixers, etc are available for it! Makes it a much more versatile machine!
Brian, FYI that grinder was made for Cabellas by weston. They have switched manufacturers now. Lots of attachments to lots of grinders available from outside sources. A little internet time could save big $$$. Glad you liked the bacon video!
@RonRoss This vid just kept popping up begging to be watched, LoL! So glad I did. We make homegrown turkey sausage and want to make venison sausage. I'm searching for a lard recommendation for venison if you have one. The list of ingredients appears to be for a spicy sausage, is this accurate? Also, we have not used MSG and are curious why you chose to use MSG in a homemade product? We are curious what the benefits of adding MSG is. Sorry for so many questions. Thank you!! PS - your back yard looks like the Puget Sound or Whatcom County, WA! It's so beautiful!

Kitchen Aid grinding attachments suck. Buy a real grinder. You can get a decent one for light duty grinding for less than a $100. Or let the butcher grind it for you. A small stuffer is a better buy. Grinding meat is not a bad job. Cleaning everything afterward, is a pain. The person in this video spent a small fortune for all the stuff he uses. If you make 50 # of sausage a week, go for it. I have never in 50 years ground my sausage more than once.
I spent about $700 on equipment, and between sausage and burger I do about 500lbs a year. You are right about the cleanup. Thats why I get a group together and do lots. If you shop eBay and Craigslist you can get some great buys on equipment.

Someone said pop a half onion through to clean out the grinder & stuffing tube.

Was that a cup of ice water for 20 pounds? Some grinders are premixing their herbs and seasoning into the water.

Can you please send me the recipe you use and can I put maple syrup in it
The recipe is in the description box. I don’t know about the syrup.
What is the measurement in the spice meant to be? For example is 2 2/3 meant to be 2 and 2 3rds tablespoon per 20 lbs?
UKHazzie yes
If you look at 7:55, you’ll see the total amount of spices and he’s mixing 20 lbs.
How is this with 10 lbs pork and 10 lbs of venison? Would you use the same spices?
I would, but if you use fatty pork, it’s going to be very fatty.
Hey, thanks for the quick response and advice!

Me too
you didnt give us the recipe for the seasoning?? it should be on screen- with a big screen TV there isnt a description box down below!! 😢
