So along with NEPA's brats I made some italian sausage.  This was honestly the best Italian I ever made and I will post the recipe if anyone would like it.  I dont have a ton of pics through the process but I am going to make 25 pounds next week so I will post pics then.

Here's the recipe.  I used 8 pounds of pork shoulder (Boston Butt) instead of 3 lean ground beef and 5 ground pork and it turned out excellent with plenty of moisture.  Id like to send kudos out to the person that had this recipe posted originally but I cant remember who it was.  Since my wife and most of my family dont like biting into whole spices such as fennel and anise, next time I will measure my whole spices, toast them a few seconds to dry them out and then grind in a spice grinder before adding to other spices.  I used Merlot instead of water because water tastes like nothing.  More Flavor!!!

Italian Sausages

3 lbs lean ground beef
5 lbs ground pork
or
8 lbs or ground pork
4 tablespoons sea salt or kosher salt
3 tablespoons fennel seeds
2 tablespoons anise seeds
3 tbs garlic powder
2 teaspoons coriander seeds
3 tablespoons paprika
3 tablespoons red chili peper ground
1-1/2 tablespoons corn sugar
1 cup powdered milk
1 cup cold water or red wine

That's one thing I like about this board, when someone posts links, they are actual links.

beef is definately a twist for italian sausage, but looks good.
