BBK MG2003 meat grinder

Getting Ready

I’m a regular busy housewife, not a professional at all. True, I saw my mom make sausage when I was a kid, and I was once at an event where chefs showed me how a meat grinder with an attachment worked. But that’s where my knowledge of cooking sausage limits.

I knew I needed guts, and I thought buying them would be the first problem with this dough. But, it turns out, the intestines are sold in very many stores, I did not even have to go somewhere for them, and they cost pennies, and they are already as much as possible prepared.

Beginning

A kilo of beef, a kilo of fatty pork, 5m of guts one pack and a BBK MG2003 meat grinder with a sausage attachment, that’s all you need.

Step 1

First, I make mincemeat in a meat grinder, I took a grid with large holes so that the meat was coarsely chopped. In a couple of minutes minced meat is ready, I add spices, salt to taste.

Step 2

I disassemble the grinder, remove the knife and perforated grid, install the nozzle for sausage, screw it with a nut. By the way, there is an inaccuracy in the manual for the meat grinder: in the words it says that you have to take out the knife and the grid when you install the sausage head, but the picture illustrating the action shows these parts.

Step 3

Stuffing ready, meat grinder also, I get the intestines out of the bag. I’ll tell you right away, their appearance discouraged me, it took “help from a friend”.I called my mom to find out how to turn this dry and strange substance into a flexible package for sausages. It’s simple: put the guts on the faucet and rinse with water. Naturally, the guts can and should even be cut into several pieces, it’s easier that way.

We put the gut on the nozzle, put the portion of minced meat down the throat of the mincer and turn it on. Sausages can be made with two people but you can also make them on your own. The main thing is to push the stuffing a little towards the end of the gut and watch for its even distribution.

Immediately tie the tip of the intestine is not necessary, although it is written about it in many manuals. Watch when the minced meat is about 3 to 4 sms from the end of the package, turn off the meat grinder, tie a knot, then continue.

Results

Without experience and skill, the process of making sausage from 2 kg of meat took 30-40 minutes. That’s not to say that everything went smoothly: a couple of times the intestines tore, I had to tie a knot, and part of the stuffing went back into action.

Another peculiarity of home-made sausages is that after you finish inside the meat grinder there is still some stuffing left over for about one cutlet. This is not a disadvantage of this model, it happens in all meat grinders.

Well, the sausages are ready to cook: they can be fried in a pan or baked in the oven. Do not forget to prick each one with a fork in several places, so that it does not burst.

Bon appetit!
