Instructions

Grind pork and beef through 3/16” plate (5 mm).
Mix all ingredients with ground meat.
Stuff into beef middles or fibrous casings about 60 mm in diameter.
Ferment at 86F (30C) and 85-90% humidity for 24 hours.
Place the sausage in the smoker and smoke at 110F and 70% humidity for 6 hours. Gradually increase smoke temperature until internal meat temperature reaches 140F.
