Bratwurst Preparation Instructions
Prepare the Meat
Cut the pork shoulder and beef chuck into small chunks. Pass them through a meat grinder fitted with a medium-hole plate. Repeat this step until all meat is ground.
Mix the Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the ground meat with minced garlic, salt, black pepper, nutmeg, coriander, and chopped parsley. Mix well.
Add Ice Water
Slowly mix in the ice water until the mixture is well combined and slightly sticky.
Prepare the Casings
Soak the hog casings in water for about 30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly to remove excess salt.
Stuff the Sausages
Using a sausage stuffer, carefully stuff the sausage mixture into the prepared hog casings, being careful not to overfill.
Twist and Tie
Twist the sausages into 6-inch links and tie off the ends with kitchen twine.
