Sausage Making: the return

We started a homemade sausage gig with friends last spring. This was so much fun and delicious that we decided to do it again, as the sausage supply in the freezer was dangerously low for this non-vegetarian family.

What better than the Saturday after Thanksgiving to make sausages again? It rained all day, so we were happy to work in our friends' basement to cut, grind and stuff our goodies. Four kinds were prepared this time around: salt, pepper, garlic powder; salt, pepper, cayenne pepper; salt, pepper, bourbon; salt, pepper, Italian seasoning. Yum!

I want to taste these sausages!
