No need to buy. Just take it.

 

I am down sir

 

what size hog was it? did you get it ground or cut into various things?

 

~160lb. I cut it into various things. I have backstrap, tenderloin, and ribs.

 

tasted any yet? haven't had one that big before. always heard that the bigger ones are tougher/gamier, but I always like to try stuff for myself. But, if you're inclined to make your own sausage, I highly recommend this kit:

really easy to make. I do it by hand so no stuffer needed.

I use it to make mine. I do 50% venison, 25% pork and beef each, but a mix of lean beef and hog at like a 50-50 mix would be good. I add high temp cheese to mine among other additives and seasonings. Really good kit.

 

I did. It was gamie. I don't see myself hunting pigs in the future so I dont want to invest in any sausage maker stuff. I was hoping someone with more hunting experience (it was my first time, I wanted to kill something no one cared about) could do something with the meat. Maybe we could all have a big BBQ and make pork related stuff on top of other stuff? (Lake day?)

 

forgot pic of said sausage...

 

My 26" webber kettle is portable and I'll cook it up! for sure I'm cooking something big for the lake meetup! If I can find time, I can make the sausage for ya to try it out. I've got all the stuffs. Nothing other than mixing bowls and elbow grease required with my method.

 

All this talk of hog meat reminded me that I have a deep freeze full of venison sausage that I thought I could bring to the Jamboree or a TTC meet-up if anyone wants some.

morning.

 

Hola senors and senoritas

 

I see @riz_atx got the all important "pringles mod" done just in time for Jambo!

 

​

Got to have the snacks!

 

Snacks are very important! I will wave at yall when you go by on the way to Jambo.. Really wish work wasn't insane right now, kept me from the two biggest things I wanted to do this year, Jambo and Expo

 

These were also delicious when further fried in bacon grease if I remember right!

 

Happy hump day, or Friday to those attending the Jamboree.!
