Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine the meat in a bowl with salt, pepper, poultry seasoning and water. Stir to blend.

  2. Step 2

    Outfit a meat grinder with a medium cutting blade and add the sausage stuffer, screwing it on securely. Slip the sausage casing onto the stuffer. Tie it at the end.

  3. Step 3

    Add the pork cubes with seasonings and liquid to the open feeder of the grinder. Grind constantly, allowing the casing to be filled. Press the filled casing at four- or five-inch intervals and twist casing to make individual sausage shapes. Let stand overnight, preferably refrigerated, before cooking. Prick the sausages before cooking. The preferred method to cook these sausages is sauteed in a skillet. They may be broiled, grilled or baked.

Tip
  • For homemade poultry seasoning, combine ¼ teaspoon sage, ¼ teaspoon rosemary and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Blend to a fine powder.
