The paprika can be bought in bags that are around 200 gram. I have made batches of 10 pounds cutting all the ingredients in half and it worked out just fine. One thing he used to do as well was throw part of the batch into his smokehouse which burned hot Alderwood for about half an hour. Not long enough to cook it for long enough to give it a nice dark colour and smoky flavour

Bob was a friend of the owner and i got to meet and talk with him many times , mostly about baseball. I did get to try the sausages and loved them. Every year, he would make a big batch and i was lucky enough to have them a few times.

Hi Bob, The polish sausage you have produced is obviously one that you enjoy, however it’s missing several key ingredients that are consistent with fresh polish. Marjoram, mustard seed and some fresh parsley are a must when producing fresh polish. I’ve been in the meat industry since 1968 and and Polish. You’ve purchased excellent equipment for home sausage making. I stopped home sausage making years ago and passed my equipment on to others. It sure is fun! Take Care!

Good looking sausage. I like the course grind, straightforward ingredients, and the simple and bold flavor. IMO simple flavor is better most of the time because it lets the flavor of the meat shine (think Texas-style brisket, or a grilled ribeye or filet) However, a couple of things stand out, no nitrite, no smoke or liquid smoke, and less mixing than what other butchers recommend (more mixing cause the meat to bind together, like sausage vs burger). Love all your videos since I found you on Eric's channel. Cheers, please keep up the good work.

What you are making is cold biala kielbasa (white sausage). But it is missing important ingredient, majeranek - marjoram. I would also ad caraway seed. Sometimes juniper berries so it would become - jalowcowa. I would also poach it in water (176 F - never over 180 F) before frizing it. Crumbling in the "cooking" process is do to the speed with witch collagen is exposed to the temp. To fast, and it hardens, and crumbles. Slow, and under 180 F, and it changes to glue like. Holds the meat, and makes it succulent like good roast. I make my own sausage for a number of years... smoke my own meats.

Your way of making sausage is the way most people including me used to make sausage. Now, I don't do even half the work of using and cleaning all the utensils like I used to. Now, I buy pork butt ground by the butcher, season the meat, and I use a $12 plastic hand stuffer I bought from Amazon. I have not used my expensive grinder and stuffer in years. I also quit using pig gut for casing. I think it tastes like rubber. I now use collagen. Works great but must be careful how you handle and cook the sausage.

To make it easier to put the casing on the horn, open up the end of the casing and dip it in the water, allowing some water inside.

Not sure if you're referring to the meat grinder or the sausage stuffer. We've used two meat grinders that we love and are featured in our videos: LEM's #8 Big Bite Meat Grinder and the #22 Big Bite Meat Grinder. Here's a link: www.lemproducts.com/product/big-bite-grinder-22-head-size/. The sausage stuffer is LEM's Mighty Bite 5 lb Sausage Stuffer: www.lemproducts.com/product/mighty-bite-5lb-sausage-stuffers/

We don't, but you can if you want to. The only issue with drying before sealing is that the casing will get wet again. The better method is to seal it, and then when you unpackage it in the future, let it dry on a cookie cooling rack in the fridge.

My favorite method is to cook the sausage (3 pounds at a time) in a Dutch oven or covered dish at 250 deg F for 2.5 hours, then uncovered at 350 deg F for another 30 minutes. If you're only cooking one pound, cut the times in half. The test for whether they have been cooked properly is whether you can easily snap the link in two... it should almost fall apart.

So you might be surprised by our advice on this: 300 cloves of fresh garlic would be about right for this recipe. You would need to puree and cook them slightly, at least to 180° to shut down the action of the enzymes. We would love to know how it goes making the recipe like this!

I think I'll just try 20-30 for now, first time making sausage, I love garlic so well see if its enough. I'll try it another time with the granulated garlic. I'll also be using an electric grinder to stuff the sausages, not what you have. I assume I may have a lot of air, so well see how it goes. Thanks for the quick response.

Why not add the dry spices before you grind and add the water prior to stuffing?
@OurFinalFreezer
4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the question Matt. There's a couple of reasons I don't add spices to the pre-grind. I don't like to get spices in the grinder because I usually make multiple flavors at the same time. The grinder only mixes spices at the local level - not the whole pan, and you still have to mix in the water later. Commercial processors that add the seasoning to the pre-grind have special machines that make sure it gets well mixed.

@OurFinalFreezer

It doesn't change anything about the sausage before you vacuum seal it. The casing will be moistened again after it is vacuum sealed. It would be beneficial to let it dry after taking it out of the package before you cook it.

The method that you would see in Old North Dayton is boiling and then pan frying the sausage. But our preferred method is as follows: put the Polish sausage in a Dutch oven or covered casserole dish and bake for one hour at 250 degrees. Continue to bake uncovered at 350 degrees for another 30 minutes. The sausage should easily snap by this point and should be very tender inside. That is for 1 lb of sausage. The low and slow method (250 degrees) will take longer if you're cooking more than 1 lb.
