Linking It Up

Recently, our family took on many first ventures. We butchered linguisaour own hog. We butchered our own goat. Then we made one of my mostest favoritest, deliciouso, perfecto sausages on the planet, LINGUISA! It is really hard to come by good linguisa around here. You can get the run of the mill not super-flavorful at every grocery store linguisa. My goal was to create  genuine flavor and texture using all natural ingredients while using goat meat with pork fat. The flavor bursting from every bite was superb. The texture was not spot on, though. Recipes called for a dice with the knife instead of a grind. I sacrificed. Less time for the grind. When we started the stuffing of the forcemeat, Kayla was completely gung-ho hands on deck. She wanted to see how she fared compared to Mike Rowe! She did quitewell. That’s 22 lbs of linguisa!breakfast links

We ground out 12 lbs of pepperoni. Last we tackled 28 lbs of large breakfast links. Everything and everyone kept warning about blowing the casings. We made it through with only one blowout! How many 13 year old girls can put on their resume “linker”!?
