Teaching my son-in-law's how to make kielbasa today. Butts are cheap so I'm gonna make around 40lbs fresh, 10lbs smoked

Nice to have help lol

Couple pics from the last small batch I did. Sorry about quality I think there was pork fat on lens :tsk:





 
Making and sharing sausage is always fun. Show pics and share your recipe/methods with us too.
 
My family loves just a basic garlic recipe. Pepper, salt (pickling salt), Marjoram, cure if you're gonna smoke and lots of garlic. A garlic press is a must for sausage making imo

An old polish guy taught me a long time ago the meat needs to be very cold and grind it coarse. I even put my grinder parts in the freezer for a hour before I start.

For smoking I add cure, paprika, cayenne and mustard seed to the batch. The links need to be very dry before they go in and I smoke low (175) and slow (til there done lol) with a nice cold bath when they are done

Family and friends love the flavor so it's good enough for me :wink:
 
Nice! I need to try that out. I've got all the equipment but I've only used it to make venison sticks so far.
 
Home made kielbasa is a favorite around this house - yours looks fantastic!
