Hot Italian Sausage

This is much more intense than the stuff you'll find at your local super market.

For some reason, I’m not able to open the file! I’ll keep trying.

(formatted from the pdf) Hot Italian Sausage Ingredients:

5 lbs. pork shoulder
2 TBSP fennel seed
1 tsp ground fennel seed
1 TBSP paprika
1 ½ TBSP Kosher salt
1 TBSP coarse ground pepper
2 tsp sugar
2 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp dried minced garlic
1 cup ice water

Cut pork into strips and put in freezer to chill. Put grinder head together using medium plate and put in freezer. Grind pork and place in fridge to keep cool. Clean grinder head, assemble and put in freezer. Remove pork from fridge, mix in seasoning and water then grind. Cover and refrigerate overnight before packaging and freezing.

my notes: since this has no "cure" this is a cook with heat to eat sausage, not a smoke sausage as you'll need to get the internal temp of the sausages to safe levels to then eat these.

grill em, dress them with onions and peppers, place in your favorite roll/hero/hoagie/grinder bread and enjoy.

Thanks for the recipe, @Bob Bailey

or do like @ChuckO does by cooking these in beer with peppers and onions and enjoy! how could one go wrong with a fatty, juicy, flavorful sauseeegee?

I continue to add a little more crushed red pepper & cayenne pepper in every batch that I make. I like it hot!

Heck yeah I'll make this. Call it a "Go Giants Bob Bailey's Hot Italian Sausage" but I'll probably wait until they play in LA the weekend of the 16th, the Giants will need all the help they can get for that series

Opened the chest freezer this morning and found 4 slabs of spares, 5 butts and a picnic. Guessing somewhere around 50#, not counting the ribs. About to go into sausage making mode. Miriam's Andouille, my hot Italian and breakfast sausage ae definitely on the list, as well as ground pork, a few pork steaks and maybe some Carnitas. There's also some leg of lamb (2 packages). One will be our traditional Easter supper. Anybody have a recipe for lamb sausage? Would really like to empty this freezer as we get ready to move.
