I got this off of this board. Everything I've tried off them has been great.

Both. Depends on what kind of sausage you want to do


Happy to share any details, seasonings, etc


Chud's BBQ YouTube is an incredible resource for how-to

Rouses also have Deep South Blenders seasoning, you just have to ask the Butcher. My favorite is the Green Onion.

Here is a list of mixes the have.

50 lbs cubed pork butts
1 cup garlic cloves (minced)
1 cup table salt
1 cup diced green onions
3 oz cayenne pepper
Mix well then grind and stuff into casings. Cold smoke with pecan wood for 6-8 hours. Wrap links in freezer paper or vacuum seal for long term freezer storage.

Any meat market will have casing and seasoning. I mix 1 part rebel SS seasoning to 1 part Bergeron’s SS seasoning. It comes out very good.
You can also buy casing at piggly wiggly or a store like that.

Good start but if you're cold smoking you definitely need some pink curing salt. You're leaving the meat in the danger zone for a long time

I only do this during the winter when overnight temps are below 40 but not cold enough to freeze meat.

Calandro's used to have little packets that did 40 to 50 lbs of sausage. I've gotten the same ones recently at Audubon Market in St Francisville. It's around 5 bucks. I've also found them at NuNu's in Youngsville.

ETA: this is the exact product. They aren't as easy to use as the big skeins but they get the job done.
