Ingredients
- 25 LB – Pork Butt/Shoulder (or pork trim from your butcher)
-
1 B-unit – Pineapple Teriyaki Brat Seasoning
- Dehydrated Pineapple (included with seasoning)
- 2 Cup – Cold Water
- Natural hog Casings
Directions
- Rinse and soak the hog casings according to the directions on the package.
- If needed, remove the bone from the pork shoulders and then cut the pork into 2” cube sized pieces.
- Place the meat in the freezer for 30 minutes before grinding to keep it cold.
Assemble the grinder and set it up with a 3/8” (10mm) plate for the first grind
-It’s a good idea to keep the grinder parts in the fridge overnight to chill them
- Remove the meat from the freezer and grind it once into a meat lug.
- Unplug the grinder and reset it with a 3/16” (4.5mm) plate.
- Grind the meat one more time.
- Gently pour in the pineapple teriyaki seasoning along with the dehydrated pineapple. Pour in the water and then mix all together until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Set up your sausage stuffer with a ½” horn.
- Load the stuffer with your meat block and then thread on your casings.
- Stuff the sausages.
- Link every 6”
- Place in the cooler for at least 2 hours and up to 24 before cutting apart and storing.
- When ready to cook, grill over indirect heat at 350 degrees until the internal temperature reaches 155 degrees.
- Enjoy!

I just received my Pineapple Teriyaki brat mix. On the video they said that they also make Snack sticks. Do you have a recipe for that? Do you think you could use Chicken with this seasoning?
