I had made my wife an all beef Philly Cheesesteak Sausage before she had surgery a month ago. She liked it so much she asked if I can make more. I’m home with her while she is recovering so I made another 25 pound batch today.
These are super easy to make.
1 seasoning pack, 1 ounce of dehydrated jalapeños, 1 2.5 pound bag of high temp Swiss cheese and 32 mm collagen casing.
You can grind your own meat or use already ground hamburger.

I mixed the seasoning pack in by hand yesterday and let it sit overnight in the refrigerator. Doing it this way requires extra water when time to stuff but doesn’t affect the quality at all.

I mixed the cheese and jalapeños that I soaked for about 20 min prior. Then set the stuffer up

Stuffed the casing and placed in the freezer to firm up so I could cut as I’m not twisting the collagen.

I marked the table in 6 inch lengths and cut the size I wanted. I found out on the last batch that there is no issue with blow out in the ends while Cooking so i am sticking with cutting these here is a pic from the last batch

I left them In the freezer about 1/2 hr prior to cutting. I think 45 min to an hour would be better cuts.

I ended up with 105 lengths. Which I bagged in gallon freezer bags.

These are super easy to make. I haven’t tried them with the jalapeños but they were killer with out. Just seemed like a little heat would be good.
I only used 24 pounds of beef on this batch.
Thanks for looking
 
Looks good! Where did seasoning come from and any particular reason for the collagen?
I got the seasoning from PSseasoning.com
I prefer to use Natural but a couple family members have dietary allergies/issues with Pork and some other stuff like gluten. I didn’t have any sheep casings but had these. Still have enough left for another 25 pounds.
Pork casings would be easier to link.
 
Looks like some good sausage. Nice job.

Sounds delicious. 👍

These look and sound awesome...

I see an Enabling moment here...

Thinking you need to look into a getting a vac sealer.... INstead of the zip lock baggies... Eliminates any chances of freezer burn or ice build up on the sausages...
