Oh yeah I did the icecube thing....but how many lbs of brauts did you make...I did 10lbs of hotdogs...that was a lot of processing....thought I burned the processer out once...Nick Prochilo said:When I did my bratwurst, I ran it through the food processer. I added ice cubes to the mix also to keep it cold. It was a bit of a pain but well worth the effort. The texture was great!

Smoking the 15lbs of Polish Sausage today...
Northsmoke said:I tried to make just a few Lbs of hot dogs today, just to see how I like your recipe. Recipe was great, however, I didn't end up with hot dogs.
I never made hot dog before and trying to get that little sheep casing on the tube was the worst. So I just gave up and made a couple of big shank dogs with hog casing.
What's your secret out there and what type of casing easy to work with?
Where did I go wrong?
Northsmoke said:Witt, I used the doggy recipe you sent me and I didn't make kielbasi I just ended up with a hot dog the size of a kielbasi.
I know I did everything right with the sheep casing, you know soaking it and rinsing it, I just couldn't fine the open ends for the life of me.
I used a smaller tube...I just couldn't find the opening [smilie=a_doh.gif] YIKES...that didn't sound to good?
Just wanted to know if ya all had any secrets for finding that hole? [smilie=a_holyshit.gif]
Nick Prochilo said:Yeah as bad as it sounds, you just have to play with it for a while.
