Sausage Making Tips

Pork Butt is a good selection of meat for sausage making because of the ideal proportions of lean and fat.

After stuffing you can clean the Feed Screw by grinding a slice of bread.

Stuffing is made a lot easier if you consider it a two-person job. Prick the casing with a pin to allow the air to escape while stuffing.

Fresh sausage is readily perishable and has a short shelf life of 3-4 days at refrigerator temperature. Up to 4-6 months in freezer.

Average weight of fresh sausage (8 inch link) is 6 ounces.
