    In this video I'm going to give you all the information to get you started on making your own homemade sausage recipes.
    We will go over Spices, Binders, Cures and other ingredients in meat then give you a little demo!
    There is a typo at 12:37 it says both mixes are 4kg 1.8lbs
    it should say both mixes are 4kg 8.8lbs
    The conversion from Kg to Lb is:
    1kg=2.2045lb
    1lb=0.454kg
    To get lbs divided kilograms by 2.2045.
    I do most of my homemade sausage and store sausage recipes in g/kg grams of spice per kilogram of meat. The reason being kilograms work in tenths and makes for easy math.
    The formula for ppm (parts per million) of cure is as follows
    grams of cure mix × % nitrite in mix × 1,000,000 =PPM
    Divided By
    green weight of meat block
    3g x 0.05% x 1,000,000=150,000
    150,000/1000g=150ppm

      I have been enjoying channel for some time now. I have a quick question about binders added to recipes. When you calculate your spices per kg is it just the weight of the meat or do you include the weight of binder too, meaning meat weight plus binder weight? If not wouldn't the binders delute the spices?

    Been researching sausage making for a minute now as a bbq dude looking to add something new to his arsenal, and there are some good videos out there, but this is exactly what I needed. The science, the ratios and formulas, etc... I'm a number guy and for all my baking and bbq recipes if I try something new I always have to grumpily convert all their volumetric measurements and play with weight ratios to find the science of how the ingredients work together. You just went ahead and did all that for me haha thank you!

    • @vmitchinson
      @vmitchinson 11 місяців тому

      Invest in a scale that has a per cent function. The beauty of Duncan's recipes is that the ingredients can be converted to percent by dividing the g by 10. The best part is you do not have to have an exact amount of meat. The way my scale works is you put all the meat on the scale click on the percent button. The read out will be 100%. The next item on scale automatically will show the percent. I find this procedure is way more simple then spoons, cups etc. are a royal pain to use.

I enjoy your natural teaching style and I think your video/audio setup is very good.

      Hey Marcus! Thanks I appreciate you taking the time to give some feedback! That sounds awesome I have a couple recipes that use offal and other non-meat ingredients like rice, potato, vegetables, and berries. Ill get some made up over time for you.
      Some Ideas:
      Andouille Sausage with beans would be good.
      Bangers and Chives
      Chicken Sausage with leek (use a cold leek broth instead of water addition to the sausage)
      Swedish Potato Sausage but use Sweets instead.
      These could be fun!

    One of my sausage books says the #1 cure can be cut back to 75 ppm for color fixation. Here in the States our max is 156 ppm.
    If you're going to smoke it do not reduce the amount of cure. But for a fresh sausage that's going to be cooked right away or put in the freezer reducing the amount of cure seems to be acceptable.
    I use liquid smoke for that smoked flavor. Some think it's an artificial substance when in fact it is smoke that is collected in the column when it has travel far enough away from the heat source to condense the water vapor that was in the wood. It's a handy tool to use when making a small batch.

    • @duncanhenry
      @duncanhenry  2 роки тому

      I have never experimented with the minimum amounts of cure. Using it in the higher end of the allowed limits helps extend shelf life so that's why I use it up there.
      Also yes liquid smoke can be great way to flavor sausage and other things like marinades.

      @duncanhenry  3 роки тому +1

      Hey Michael thanks! Sure thing, to get a juicy beef sausage id recommend adding some sort of nice hard beef fat or using a bit fattier of a cut. So If you saved some hard fat off briskets or trimmings off ribeye and added it to your sausage mix I think that would help a lot. I usually shoot for a ratio of 15% (Leaner) 25% (Juicier) and I add water to a sausage at 10%, you can go up to 20% without phosphates but after that it begins to affect texture and quality.
      I hope this helps!

Here most products are from the USA and reliable there are a miriad of Chinese products I find that a minefield I see your respect for quality and woul appreciate if you could mention some suppliers and products and where you source them A BIG THANK YOU 🙏🏻 from Sydney 🇦🇺 Australia 🇨🇦to your beautiful Alberta !!! can you please share a recipe for pepperoni 🍕 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻THANKS

      Hello Walter. Hahah well I'm glad this has kept you entertained during your sleepless nights.
      Yes you can use whey protein (Powder milk) as a binder if you'd like. I have used it in the past at 10g/kg as well and it works great.
      The suppliers I use up here in Canada are:
      myunipac.com/
      jbsausagesupplies.com/
      www.halfordsmailorder.com/
      I am not sure if they do international shipping but you can always check. Also "The Sausage Maker" in buffalo new york is quite good I just started looking into those guys.
      Also Here is your pepperoni recipe and video man. Enjoy! Try to get some sleep!

    Hey Duncan in regard to adding water, do you or can you substitute water for something else? For instance, beer in a brat or apple cider or apple juice in a breakfast sausage to add flavor? I see some people put red wine in their italian sausage so I figured you could but I haven't seen any recipes like that as of yet. Thanks from northern Ohio, Phil

    • @duncanhenry
      @duncanhenry  2 роки тому

      Hey there Phil, yes sir you can substitute. I don't usually go over the 10% or 100ml/kg.
      Also a thing to note if you are using vinegar you'll need to mix extra well since acidic things de-nature protein.

      @duncanhenry  2 роки тому +1

      Hey there Cliff without spending pretty decent $$$ your not going to get one that weighs out less than 1g. Even the scale I use isn't that precise. I use a Kilotech scale though to answer your question. good for down to 1g increments and up to 5000g.

      Duncan's right. Scales that can handle a lot of weight and still have great sensitivity are expensive. Since I'm a cheapskate, I use two scales. The Etekcity has a resolution of 0.1 g and is great for measuring out seasonings. The Accuteck is exactly like the one you mention - lousy for gram quantities but great from 100 g to 20 kg. I use it to weigh meat, water, etc. Neither scale cost more than about $10.

      you can probably use the same amount of binder. You could use phosphates at that point as their main function is water retention. Just mix lots.
      If you are using acidic things like vinegar they will de-nature the protein so you may find if you use a lot your will get a crumbly texture.

    The options are out there where a person can get a half a cow or half a pig. If it was you, and you wanted to make your own sausages primarily with those and to maximize the best cuts of meat for consumption how would you order those halves from the butcher. This would assume that you have your own grinder and sausage stuffer.

      If you wanted to make primarily sausage/ground, I would save the prime rib, striploin, tenderloin, top sirloin, and brisket and grind the rest. With pork you could save just the belly for bacon and turn the rest into sausage, or save the loin and belly. Depends how much sausage you want to be making.
