- ..I [=Jane Butel] have generally made bulk sausage, as it is much easier.
- Sausage has to be taken out of the casing for most uses anyway.
- 1. Clean the casings, rinse well with water, then pour vinegar through them. Set aside.
- 2. Use a food processor or possibly the coarse blade of a meat grinder, grind the meat and fat. Add in the onions, garlic, vinegar, tequila and seasonings, using the hotness of chile pwdr your family and guests will prefer.
- 3. Stuff the casings. First cut the casings into 3-ft lengths and tie one end together. Use either a funnel or possibly filling tube to fill the lengths. Tie at about 4-inch intervals with heavy thread.
- 4. Place on a cookie sheet covered with wax paper. Set on the counter for about 2 hrs, then chill.
- 5. After a day, freeze what you won't use within a week or possibly two. Mix should ripen for at least 8 hrs before using.
- Notes: If you have no food processor or possibly grinder, buy triple grnd pork.
- Prepare the recipe once and taste for the mildness or possibly hotness of the grnd red chile. Adjust to suit your taste for the next time you make sausage.
- Freezing hints: Mold the sausage into 1/2-lb. lumps and freeze between pcs of foil inside a heavy plastic bag.
- Maximum recommended freezer storage: 3 months.
