Smoked Hot Italian Sausage

Postby Jarhead » Sat Apr 21, 2012 11:27 pm

Ehi, gli individui ed i galloni. (Hey, guys and gals) (According to Google)
We're doing some Hot Italian Sausage today.
This is a recipe from Griffin, that I borrowed without permission, and changed it a bit to fit my tastes. Aka HOTTER.
The likely suspects.

Image

Combine ingredients to ground pork butts. Mix well.

Image

Fry up a test patty. Adjust heat and salt to taste.

Image
Image

Just right. Bag and cure overnight in the fridge.

Image

I smoked at ~100 over hickory using my #10 can smoke generator for 4 hours. Then I turned the FEC-100 on with a cooking temp of 180 and probe temp of 150. About another 4 hours.
Pulled em at 151 IT and gave em a polar bear bath.

Image

Slice one up for an after smoke taste test and it definitely bit me back. Where's my beer, cheese and crackers. Gonna be good on Pizza.

Thanks CF. The heat won't kill ya, but it will let you know it's there.

Thank you Limey. I've got about a pound of fresh left, cause I didn't want to mess with putting another 3 feet of casing on the stuffer.
I was gonna crumble it up for pizza, but now, you changed my mind. :D

Thanks Egghead and Gator.
Those are long gone now.
I've got Breakfast, Med Italian and Chorizo going on today. 8.8 pounds of each. Most are already sold. So I'll be left with the short packs and crumbs. But I did get a test patty from each. :D
