I thought I'd play around with my grinder a little bit in preparation for St. Patty's Eve.
I an extra corned beef point, Swiss cheese, some cabbage, taters, carrots and onions.

I thought I'd grind the point, chunk up some Swiss and stuff it in some hog casings.

While those were chilling, I par cooked a couple of russets, sliced some onions, carrots and fresh cracked black pepper, then ran that through the grinder.
I added some sliced cabbage and green onions, then stuffed the mixture into the casings.

Nice. I don't know about the rabbit food sausage, but those corned beef and swiss sausages would go great on some homemade rye hotdog rolls with some deli mustard, or with some sauerkraut and thousand island dressing.


Fun fact, potatoes are poisonous to rabbits.
 
I let everything chill overnight.
I was inspired by a Swedish potato sausage that I'd found up the the UP a couple years ago.
I was thinking of a cross between it and an Irish dish called colcannon, which is mashed potatoes and cabbage.
On Saturday, I smoked some bacon, then threw the potato sausage on the smoker for a couple of hours.
The Corned beef and Swiss sausage went on the kettle indirect with some Blues Hog and hickory.

All in all, not too bad!
I'll tweek a few things before the next go round.
I had off brand casings. They aren't as snappy as LEM.
I'll start with raw potatoes next time to see if the end result is a firmer sausage.
Finally, I should have cubed the Swiss into smaller pieces to get a better distribution.

The corned beef sausages tasted like...corned beef!
The potato sausage reminded me of a spring roll with the cabbage and carrots.
I REALLY like the flavor!

A bit of Guinness to wash it down made for a good St. Patty's Eve dinner!

Thanks for looking!

Funny you should mention the Rye rolls.
Lunch today was one of the beef sausages served open face on Rye with some kraft and homemade thousand island!
 
Never would have thought of putting those vege sausages together. I would have rolled them in bean curd skin so the vego's would be able to eat them.

If you did have a vego around it would have been real funny telling them they could not have it because it was in a hog casing! :p
 
You took MSU to another level, and I'm on the elevator, heading there now! It all sounds interesting and I would definitely put a massive hit on that.
 
Great sausages right there - I have made a very similar corned beef sausage - along with Swiss cheese - also added a pastrami rub, binder and a cold beverage to the mix
