    Is there any Specific Whiskey that works best for the Slaughterhouse Spritz, or will good ole home Distilled Corn Liquor (Moonshine) work out fine ?

    Had an idea while grinding a brisket .

    Oh, forgot to mention, I worked there as a teenager in High School. I guess around 35 years ago or so and they're kinda like an Institution in my home town. They give me a discount for being a Veteran and former Employee. So, the prices are Great !!!😆

    This was a Great Post Chopsaw. I went to M&M Meats here in town. The local Family Owned Slaughter House/Butcher Shop and got a nice Brisket to give this a Go. It has to be the most Juicy Flavorful piece of of meat that I've grilled for the wife and I. She's very picky too. So, if she was...

    First try to ferment hot peppers

    It's basically the same Principle as Fermenting Mash, except that you're not adding Yeast and Yeast Nutrients and Yeast Energizer. As long as it's above 50° Degrees Fahrenheit it's going to Ferment. Once it's placed in a Refrigerator and brought down below 50° degrees Fahrenheit Fermentation...

    First try to ferment hot peppers

    They Sell a black 4" inch deep, 4' wide by 6' long trough at lowes and 10 Gallon Grow Bags. Dig them up, bring them inside and with a Grow Light or A Couple of Heat Lamps with Grow Light Bulbs and a Fan to Circulate the Air you can Save your Plants and replant it next year using the Grow bags.

    First try to ferment hot peppers

    I literally felt like I had Peppers Growing Out of my Ears every time I went to harvest Peppers. I easily got a 2 gallon bucket of Ripe Chili's every other day. Of course I plant around 15-20 Chili Pepper Plants per Season. At least a minimum of 2 Plants of each Variety up to 6 Plants per Variety.

    Question about binders

    I don't want to be out of line here, but we've made everything from Homemade Weiners, to Bratwurst, Polish Sausage etc. and I don't recall any of the recipes that I or my Aunts & Uncles have from my Grandfather who came here from Hannover Germany used Binders. We've always Hand Mixed our Sausage...

    Fassett's Breakfast Sausage Seasoning

    Sou Sounds like a great Tasting Midwest Breakfast Sausage Recipe. I might have to give it a try. Did you use Fresh Sage, Rubbed Sage or Ground Sage for this Recipe ? I'm very partial to all Fresh Ingredients freshly ground or finely crumbled. I just now noticed the other post saying that it's...

    Had an idea while grinding a brisket .

    I prefer to go directly to our local slaughter house/butcher shop and get my meat. It's always fresh. They might let it Green Hang for 3-4 days in the Freezer before butchering a half side of beef, but it only ages it for 3-4 days. My wife works at Walmart in the Meat & Produce Department, and...

    Tennessee, I'll be down in your neck of the woods in November. One of my Daughters is getting married in Gatlinburg November 7th. I'm going to try to have a bunch of Meat Smoked in time for the Wedding. I plan on making a Special Trip to Sevierville to see if I can catch up with another fellow...

    No problem. I appreciate it when someone gives me a friendly welcome and good information about other Sausage Makers. I'm working on a Recipe that was my Great Grandfather's that I'm having translated from German to English. It's a Regional Sausage Recipe from Hannover.
