Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare Hog Casings
Soak the hog casings in cold water for at least 30 minutes. Rinse them thoroughly inside and out to remove any salt.
- 2
Mix Meat and Fat
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef and pork fatback. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- 3
Add Spices
Add the kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, red pepper flakes, ground coriander, and ground mustard to the meat mixture. Mix until evenly distributed.
- 4
Incorporate Ice Water
Gradually add the ice water to the meat mixture while mixing. This helps to bind the ingredients together and keeps the mixture moist.

Stuff the Casings
Carefully slide the soaked hog casing onto the tube of the sausage stuffer. Begin to fill the casing with the meat mixture, being careful not to overstuff. Leave some space at the ends.
