I’ll be stuffing several kinds of sausage over the next couple nights, but on the agenda for tonight was chicken sausage, something I’ve never done before. I never really cared for poultry sausage in the past...I’d always find a little bone shard or something to crack a tooth on. However, I figured if I can control what goes into it, maybe it’ll be better.
I started out with about 6.5lbs of deboned skinless thighs. I’m glad I opted not to grind the skin, chicken fat was a different experience cleaning out of the grinder as is.
I divided the coarse ground chicken into two 3.25lb batches. The first I made was spinach feta and the second was apple gorgonzola. The spinach feta I ground a second time through the coarse plate to mix in the spinach leaves and feta slices, the apple gorgonzola got a second pass through the 1/4” plate.
I fried up a patty of the apple gorgonzola in a pan and oh boy...it was delicious. :thumb: I’m going to run it through some 32mm hog casings in a bit after it chills in the fridge.
