1st time andouille

bbqwilly · Apr 21, 2015

Thanks to the brethren I wanted to try my hand at making sausage. A huge thanks to brother Shagdog. He hooked me up with a grinder and answered every question I had. Thanks again brother.

I ground up 5lbs of pork butt. Added my spices and let it sit over night.

The next day I stuffed it into natural casings. This was an experience. I had a blow out about every other link.

Finally I fired up the warmer on my Shirley and smoked them to an IT of 147

These things were amazing. I'm hooked and can't wait to try new sausages. Thanks again to everyone who has posted sausage cooks, I'm sure I have looked at them at one point or another during the past week.

Call me a wimp, but that is the perfect "spicy" sausage for me. Just right

I'm a sausage nut and that looks awesome! I've gotta get the hardware and try to make my own.

Its really just your basic recipe. I googled it and found a bunch just like it.
Paprika, Minced garlic, pepper, salt, thyme, crushed red pepper and ice water. I added SM season all and some cajun creole seasoning.

Very nice...it all seems so easy until you try it yourself. Reminders me that it's time for another round.

Phabulous!
Since I got a meat grinder I'm totally hooked on grinding my own meats and making sausages.
Have much Phun with it!

Great job on that Andouille! Looks like a professional job to me.

Another good Andouille recipe is on the NOLA Cuisine website. That's pretty much my go to recipe now. Check it out when you have some time.
