Sausage Ingredients
Method
Preparation Directions
- 1
Prepare the Sausage Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork and ground beef. Add in minced garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, dried thyme, crushed red pepper flakes, and brown sugar. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- 2
Add Ice Water
Gradually add the ice water to the meat mixture while mixing to ensure the sausage is moist and well combined.
- 3
Prepare Sausage Casings
Soak the sausage casings in cold water for at least 30 minutes before using. Rinse them thoroughly inside and out to remove excess salt.
- 4
Stuff the Sausage
Using a sausage stuffer, carefully fill the casings with the sausage mixture, being careful not to overstuff. Twist sausages into links at desired lengths.
