Texas Red Hots

Postby Okie Sawbones » Thu Dec 21, 2017 8:34 pm

Made, smoked, and bagged just in time for all of the holiday beggars to eat. Man they are juicy. If you are a Thai food fan, the heat of the sausage is about *** Thai. copycat Sweet Smoke sauce went perfectly with the sliced sausage.

Here you go Grubby:

Texas Red Hots

2 pounds beef chuck
2 pounds pork shoulder
1 lb. pork fat (ask your grocery butcher)
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1-1/2 tablespoons ground cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons red pepper, crushed
1 tablespoon garlic powder
¼ cup minced garlic cloves
2 tablespoons sweet paprika
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons mustard seeds
1 teaspoon bay leaves, ground
2 tablespoons coarse black pepper (freshly ground)
1 teaspoon ground cumin (add more if you want a SW flair)
1 tablespoon hot chile powder
1 tablespoon MSG (optional)
¼ cup bull flour (or another binder)
1 bottle dark or amber beer
1 tsp. pink salt
10 grams phosphates (I get mine at Butcher BBQ)

Combine all dry ingredients in a quart jar and mix well. Grind meats and fat through a medium plate, about a 4.5 mm. Place the meat in the meat mixer, and then add the beer and minced garlic. Mix a few turns, then pour in the quart jar mix of dry ingredients. Mix well. Place in the sausage stuffer and stuff 32-35 mm hog casings. Smoke at 170F until the internal temperature is 155F. Plunge in ice water to cool and prevent casing wrinkle. Dry on a rack for one hour to bloom.

You can use all beef if desired, but I prefer the mix.
