How do you create delicious sausage from your hunting or from a harvest of a farm animal? Which cuts do you use and what is the best way to preserve and use as much of the animal without letting things go to waste?
Learn from 6th generation veteran backwoodsman Benny Finch, as he shares recipes and techniques that his family have used to make sausage that everyone looks forward to.
This is a hands-on class that will use home-harvested meats from our school. All animals used will be harvested (in advance) by our staff using humane and mindful techniques and none of the animals we use are from factory farms. We will use a 50/50 mix of our own turkeys and local heritage pork.
Students will learn what goes into sausage, the equipment used (both mechanized and off-grid), what spices and ratios needed, a discussion about nitrites and preservatives, the process involved in making sausage correctly, and how to properly preserve the sausage made in the class.
All students will have a chance to make sausage, and for those interested, you may purchase sausage at the end of the class made that day. (details below)
