WHAT INGREDIENTS DO YOU NEED TO MAKE YOUR OWN SAUSAGE?

When you’re ready to dip your toes into the exciting world of sausage making, the first step is getting all your sausage making supplies.

• Good Meat Cuts - Whether you prefer ground beef or pork, you can’t go wrong. Typically, the best cuts of beef come from the chuck and you want to make sure it’s 80-85% lean. For pork, go for the boneless pork butt (don’t worry — it’s from the pig’s shoulder). It also contains 20-30% fat which makes for a delicious sausage that won’t dry out
• Sausage Casings - The casing is an essential part of a sausage. The sausage casing encloses the meat and provides extra flavor while ensuring it gets processed evenly. From natural to collagen and fibrous, there are a variety of different sausage casings with many flavors and textures to choose from. Select your favorite casing and you’re well on your way to a delicious homemade sausage.
• Sausage Seasoning - Make sausage your way with your choice of seasoning. Whether you’re looking for something hot and spicy, or a bit of sweetness, our collection of sausage seasonings has it all. Find your new favorite sausage seasoning for brats, summer sausage, snack sticks, and fresh or smoked links alike.
• Add-Ins - Looking to add professional-level flavor to your sausage? Try our cures, binders, additives, and high-temp cheeses.
  Our award-winning cures add extra flavor, texture, and longevity to your meats, while binders can increase the moisture to improve texture. Take sausage making to new heights with a boost of flavor from high-temp cheeses that won’t melt when you smoke or grill the meat.

BEST MEAT PROCESSING EQUIPMENT

Once it’s time to start making the sausage, be sure you’ve got all the right equipment to prepare, process, and preserve it.

• Prepare your meat with meat tenderizers, cutting tools, and a scale.
• Process your meat with a meat grinder or hand-cranked stuffer. You’ll then use a top-of-the-line smoker or dehydrator if you’re making jerky, meat mixers, and stockinettes.
• Preserve your meat with vacuum sealers.

HOW LONG CAN MEAT STAY IN THE FRIDGE?

Need to prepare your sausage before you’ll have time to cook them? No problem at all. You can keep uncooked sausage in the fridge for 1-2 days before cooking. Need a bit more time? Vacuum seal your homemade sausage and freeze it. It will stay good for up to six months.
