We love chicken sausage but the store bought ones are expensive and have ingredients we prefer to avoid. These are some of the most delicious, juicy sausages you'll ever try

Ingredients

  • 5 pounds Chicken Thighs
  • 8 ounces cold butter (cut into small pieces)
  • 8 ounces Shredded Parmesan Cheese
  • 45 grams Redmond Real Salt
  • 8 grams ground white pepper (can use black pepper)
  • 12 grams Fresh Parsley (chopped)
  • 12 grams Fresh scallions (or chives) chopped
  • 8 grams Fresh Tarragon (chopped)
  • 8 grams Fresh Oregano (chopped)
  • 25 grams Fresh pressed garlic (you can smash and chop as well)
  • 8-10 feet 29-30mm hog casings

Instructions

  • Make sure your meat is very cold. We suggest putting it in the freezer for about 30 minutes before beginning
  • If using fresh chicken thighs, cut into pieces based on your meat grinder and grind through largest die.
  • In a bowl, combine meat with all of your herbs and the butter. (LEAVE OUT THE CHEESE FOR NOW)
  • Run through a medium die on your grinder. Add cheese and mix by hand.
  • Run through the grinder with a medium die one more time.
  • Place back into freezer for a few minutes while you clean your grinder
  • In a bowl or with a meat mixer, emulsify the sausage. It should become tacky and stick to your hand when you turn it upside down
  • Place back into freezer and set up your sausage stuffer
  • Stuff sausage into hog casings and twist into 6-8 inch links. (You can also turn them into patties)
  • Poke each link with a poking tool 3-4 times
  • Place the sausage links into the refrigerator overnight to dry out the casings.
  • Separate links and then place them into storage bags for freezer. If you would like to precook them, parboil or cook in a Sous Vide until you have an internal temperature of 155-160 degrees.
  • Store uncooked sausage you plan to eat in fridge for up to 3 days and freeze the rest.
