Smoked Jagerwurst Recipe

Smoked Jagerwurst Recipe



To tell you the truth, this is a variation of the Smoked Jagerwurst Recipe. I took the plunge today and decided to make my first sausage and it turned out to be a great experience, very relaxing. So many recipes out there, but I decided on a variation of Ruhlman’s Jagerwurst or Hunter sausage. It went very smoothly, I can’t think of a single negative point. Well, I had one blow-out while filling, but it was easily fixed and away I went.

This sausage will be great with some smoked cheese and a glass of red wine, it’s got an earthy taste that I bet is best cold.

I’d never made sausage, so if you are new to this hobby, don’t be afraid. It’s easy and lots of fun.

Preparation

Grind everything together and stuff the casings.

I dried them for an hour at 130ºF, then bumped them up 10 degrees each hour.

I gave them 3 hours of whiskey oak smoke and left them in until an IT of about 152ºF.
