So I got my grinder and love it. Have a freezer full of deer and a cow elk hunt in a few weeks. I am expecting to get a cow and with the amount of meat we will get it is a lot for my wife and I. I want to try and make other things, mainly brats and some of those sausage sticks. I am not a breakfast sausage person.
I would like as much info as possible on how to make brats or sausage, down to the small details. As you can imagine I would hate to waste any meat so I am reacing out to learn and not throw away meat from an animal that I killed. Any online resources like videos or web pages would be great.
Some questions I have are how to get the pork fat, what to look for? Do I need a mixer? Can I use previously ground meat that is frozen? I may not be able to make it all right so should I freeze ground meat or whole meat to thaw and grind later and then use in sausage products? Best casing? Any good all in one kits that have spice blends ect.? To make summer sausage or those snack sticks do I need a smoker?
Please school me and dont leave anything out.
