Homemade German Bratwurst step by step

1. Butcher the pork butt by removing the bone and cutting in to 2” pieces. Place pork butt and the ground beef in the freezer for one hour..
2. Grind the pork using a 10mm grinding plate. Take approximately one third of the pork and grind it a second time using a fine grinding plate. Place back in the freezer along with the coarsely ground pork and the lean ground beef..
3. While the meat is chillin in the freezer, use a mortar and pestle to smash the caraway. In a small bowl, mix all of the powdered spices and set aside..
4. Remove the meat from the freezer and thoroughly mix in the spice mixture. This may take a good ten minutes. Place the meat mixture in the refrigerator overnight..
5. Clean and sanitize the meat grinder, grinder auger, plunger, feed tray, and large tray. Place in the freezer while you prepare the hog casings..
6. Thoroughly rinse the hog casings inside and out by placing the end of the casing over the faucet and running cold water through them. Repeat step 6..
7. Now it’s time to stuff the sausage. Assemble your grinder with the chilled parts. Place a hog casing over the sausage tube by slightly wetting the tube and slipping the casing completely on the tube. Tie a knot in the casing. Slowly fill the sausage casing. This takes some time to get used to. Do not over-stuff the casing. Tie the remaining end and twist into links..
