Ingredients

  • 4 Lbs Pork shoulder (or 50/50 pork and venison)

  • 1/2 Lb Thick bacon

  • Natural hog casings

  • 2 Tablespoons Kosher salt

  • 1 Tablespoon White sugar

  • 1 Tablespoon Marjoram

  • 1 Tablespoon Black pepper

  • 5 Cloves Garlic, finely minced

  • 3/4 Cup Ice-cold water

Directions

  • Freeze all meat (including bacon) for 1-2 hours so it becomes very cold and somewhat hard. Grind all meat together (including bacon) with a medium-sized grind plate.
  • Mix together the dry seasonings.
  • To the ground meat, add the dry seasonings, garlic, and cold water. Mix very thoroughly with fingers until the mixture is not very wet, and feels quite tacky.
  • Stuff your sausages using the hog casings and a sausage machine. Twist links, prick the casings, and separate links with a sharp knife.
  • Freeze immediately, or let sausages sit in fridge for 12-24 hours before cooking.
