Making some Andouille for Mrs. Percebes who does not eat Pork.

Boned a 9kg bird, plus 2 additional legs including skin where ever it was present over fat pockets-Added 500 g Beef Fat and 500g Chicken Fat total boned mix of 6kg.


Tossed with salt- mixed well and back in fridge for 3 hours to facilitate Myosin extraction

Coarse grind then added cure and Andouille spices and reground with 200ml water per kg

Test patty was delicious so the mix went back to the cooler to meld flavours overnight.

Original recipe off Bradley Forum, but modded to empty my available spices.

Spice mix
1/4 c each of Edesnemes and Csemege Paprika
1/4 c Fresh cracked Blk Pepper
20 g Kosher Salt per kg
1 tbs Dried Thyme
3 Tbs Granulated Garlic
1 tbs Old Bay Seasoning
1 tbs Cayenne Pepper
1 tsp  Allspice
1 tsp Ground Clove
2 tbs Ground Mustard
3 g cure per kg
1 pkg Dry Onion Soup Mix
1/4 c Dried 3 Onion Mix
2 Bulbs of Garlic
1 tbs Ancho
1/2 cup Red Wine-Nebbiolo
1 tbs File Powder

200 ml water per kg

End is in sight-a Quick Flavour Quench and a hot Bloom and will let them set a day in the smoker to mellow

Thank you Margi for the kind words

The aroma of Garlic is certainly in the air.

To cool the sausage quickly from the smoker I plunged each pair of sausages into a very cold extract of garlic and water and Piri Piri oil.

Then I let them hot bloom quickly drying the surface resulting in a punch of garlic on the tongue at first bite.
A technique I began experimenting with 30 years ago as a young chef

Pitrow,

Thank you so much for all your wonderful details and for posting.

They truly look and sound amazingly incredible ..

Unfortunately, urban living does have its drawbacks !!  NOT being able to have a Weber or similar brand, is one of them !!! 

All my best regards.
Margi.

These look simply incredible Murray - thank you for sharing the photos and the recipe.

How are you finding turkey as a substitute for pork in sausage, both in terms of flavor and texture? I like my pork sausage, but am not afraid to try new things, if they work well.

If Pork Andouille is a 10
I would rate the Turkey as a 7 in Flavour and a 6  in Texture. Definitely softer even with a coarse grind

I am using Turkey because I had to.Wink

But as a Turkey sausage I rate it a 8. Perhaps a smidge too high in clove and allspice, but was my first go at this profile.

While I often up the clove in pork as it contributes a certain Hamminess, it seems to sit a bit too Up-Front when added to Turkey

Thank you for the observations, Murray - I understand.

Sounds like the best bet is to continue with pork...but! It's not the end of the world at all if it is turkey.
