I have tried a few times making my own sausages and have used the hand crank kilner mincer and stuffer and what a waste of time that was. I have also tried using an electric mixer with an attachment and found the mixer to struggle a bit. Is there a mincer/stuffer out there or even two separate machines that work well consistently but wont cost me the earth. I am very new to this and the most successful method i used soo far was getting a butcher to mince my meat and using a piping bag to fill the cases. TIA
In the UK if this makes a difference?
Look out( check on line ) for an electric mincer / stuffer in Lidl & Aldi .... they come on sale this time of the year @ approx £40 with the tools . Do read & understand the safety & operating instruction several times before using it .
We have had one for 4 or 5 years . it's really good , put sausage meat mixed with herbs & rusk etc through two or three times once it is mixed up to get a real butchers class made sausage .
We must have made close on 100 or so pounds of sausages with it , 20or so of salami and many pounds of all manner of minces .
Wischenfelder on line is a good point to buy smallish packs of seasonings & skins from as well as strong vac pack heat sealing bags .
