    Looking at those chubs reminded me of that old film "Motel Hell" with Rory Calhoun as Farmer Smith. He had a way with sausage and based on a true story out of Poland.

    Just kidding of course.

    I bought one of them when they had a sale on refurbished ones for half price. It works great. They don't have these sales often but when they do it's a true bargain.

    Your stuffer was a little over half full.

    Or was that closer to half empty?

    I am always an optimist when it comes to my sausage.

    I worked with a female meat cutter (Andria) who had escaped from East Germany when she was 18 because as she always said "I didn't want to be a Communist". I hated working with her as she was such a bitch. However after she retired occasionally we'd meet at different events and whoa was she a changed woman--pleasant, polite, courteous, charming

    Anyway after she had retired she called me and asked if I had a sausage stuffer she could borrow as a friend from Germany was coming to visit and he was going to make Bratwurst and would need a stuffer. I told her that I'd gladly loan her the stuffer on these two conditions:

    1. I got his recipe
    2. I got a small sample

    She readily agreed so I asked if he needed my hand grinder, casings etc and she said no as she had a grinder and he was bringing everything else he'd need from Germany.

    Within an hour or so her husband showed up and I showed him how to assemble the stuffer and gave him the run down on how to break it down and clean it well.

    About a week later the husband returned the stuffer and thanked me very much and handed me a bag that had the samples and a note from Andria. The note said she was so grateful for the use of the stuffer and that she was very sorry she couldn't give me the recipe as her friend brought a mix------a mix he couldn't find in Germany, he had to travel to Austria to find and purchase it.

    The note also included how to cook the Brats and that was to place them in a pot with cold water and turn the heat onto medium and wait till the water simmered and then to brown them in a bit of oil OR place them on a grill.

    I checked the internal temp after the water simmered and it was 162 degs or a bit above so I removed them and quickly dried them off and browned them.

    I found them very close to tasting like mine so I made a batch and gave her some to cook and try.

    The only dings she gave me was that I hadn't ground the meat and fat fine enough and that I might have not had quite enough fat as they were drier than she preferred (lesson learned), other than that she said it was a very good sausage.

    My best friend came to town a couple of years ago and we got together with a mutual very good friend and his wife for a BBQ and I made the Brats along with roasted red pepper slivers and sauteed onion slivers to top them with and cooked the brats like Andria had told me--big hit! With one exception.

    I'd purchased some Sausage Rolls (sometimes called Stadium Rolls) as unlike hoagie rolls, they have a bit of a cavity for the sausage, peppers, onions etc to fit into. However I was the only one out of the group that used the rolls, everyone else wanted to save room for more sausage.

    Oh well---
