Breakfast Links
 ​
I have been wanting to make links for a while, I make patties all the time, so I ordered some sheep casings and pork butts were on for $.88 lb. I had several projects going on at one time, smoking cheese, getting ready to make bologna and salami along with the links.

I have made Hot Links and Kielbasa using hog casings, first time using sheep.

Day 1, De-boned, cut up, ground and seasoned butt then back in the fridge till tomorrow.

I used A C Legg's Sausage Seasoning

Day 2, Casing soaked overnight and silky, Filled stuffer and started stuffing,

De-boned Butt


Cut up and ready to weigh so I'll know how much fat to add


Not quite 7 lbs.


First gring using large plate


Seasoned up ready to mix then in the freezer to firm back up


Second gring using small plate


Putting on the sheep casings.  These are pretty small and my fat fingers 

didn't help.



Off and running, 


Here is what I wound up with



Had to try one !!!



Putting them in vac bags and in the freezer  to firm up before I seal them



14 bags with 8 ea.  112 overall



A shot this morning after a night in the freezer, Got them sealed and back in the freezer


Thank you for looking !     BTW   these are easy to make and Gooooood

Man, those look great. I wish I could do that. Instead, why don't you just send me about 4 or 5 of those bags? You always turn out the best stuff.

Keep it coming, Joe :points:
