How To Make Your Own Sausage, From Scratch
Image source: Pixabay.com
Sausage is defined as ground or minced meat mixed with fat and spices stuffed into a casing made from intestines. However, it is also the logical outcome of efficient butchery.
Once all of the prime cuts of roasts, ribs and steaks have been cut from a carcass, what is going to happen to all of the excess bits that stick to the bones or are scraped from the tendons that have been removed? The logical answer is to find a way to chop those bits up even smaller and make them taste good.
Our ancient ancestors abhorred waste and really couldn’t afford to throw away any part of an animal that had been killed for meat. They learned how to utilize every bit of an animal’s carcass, and they developed the method of making sausage that we still use today. While the art of making sausage was originally developed to preserve and easily transport the meat, it has become a highly refined process and respected within the culinary arts.
Equipment You’ll Need
Meat Grinder
- Unless you are willing to spend the money necessary for a large horsepower, commercial-type grinder you will likely be working with a smaller meat grinder for home use.
