This recipe makes about 30 - 6" sausages. The proper equipment will save you time and stuffing heartache! I recommend the KitchenAid Stand Mixer with the meat grinding attachment from Smokehouse and a vertical stuffer. I learned how to make these hot dogs from my friends over at Serious Eats. They feature 4505 Meats from San Francisco and I adapted their recipe to include a bit more complexity to the flavor profile. However, I love their home oven smoking technique. Check out our youtube page for a video on how we cooked up our dogs. Have fun!

COOK TIME | ACTIVE: 20 MINUTES - PASSIVE:  1 HOUR 15 MINUTES

PREP TIME: 60 MINUTES | SERVING SIZE: 25-30

Ingredients

  • 4 Pre Brands Chuck Roasts, cut into 1" cubes (this cut works perfectly) 
  • 1 Tbsp paprika
  • 2 Tbsp mustard powder
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 Tbsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp cayenne 
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp coriander
  • 2 Tbsp salt
  • Just over 1 cup ice chips
  • Sheep casings (24-26 mm)

Instructions

  1. Place chuck on rimmed baking sheet, transfer to the freezer, and chill until crunchy on the exterior but not frozen solid.
  2. In a small bowl, add the salt, paprika, granulated garlic, black pepper, mustard powder, cayenne, ginger, coriander and mix well. 
  3. Nest a large mixing bowl in a bowl filled with ice. Grind the meat and fat through the small die of the grinder into the bowl set in ice.
  4. Add the spice mixture to the meat and stir with your hands until well incorporated; the mixture will look homogenous and will begin sticking to the bowl.
  5. Transfer the meat to the bowl of a food processor, add half the ice water and process until all of the ice has dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the remaining crushed ice and continue processing until the mixture is completely smooth, 4 to 5 minutes more. Note: The temperature of your meat during this mixing step is critically important. Its temperature should never rise about 40°F/; work efficiently during this step of the process.
  6. Spoon 2 Tbsp of the meat mixture into a nonstick frying pan and spread into a thin patty. Cook the test patty over low heat until cooked through but not browned. Taste the sausage for seasoning and adjust as necessary.
  7. Using a stuffer or your kitchen aid attachment, stuff the sausage into the sheep casings and twist into links.
  8. If you do not have a smoker at home, you can use your oven! Simply, light apple wood chips with a lighter until fiery. Place them on the bottom rack of your oven. Place the links directly onto an oven rack above the smoking chips. Let them smoke in the oven for about 45 minutes or until fiery red. They may turn brown before they turn red and that's okay! Remove the sausages from the smoker or oven, let cool slightly, then transfer to the refrigerator and let stand, uncovered, overnight. The hot dogs are then fully cooked and can be finished on a grill or steamed. We like them steamed on the stovetop. 
  9. Serve with relish and mustard. If you're from Chicago, no ketchup. But, since we don't discriminate we'll allow you to put it on the side. Enjoy!

    "Real talk...since my cancer was environmental and not hereditary I am super conscious of what goes into my body, especially protein. Post chemo left my body super low in iron so steak remains in my diet. I found Pre a few months ago and it’s the only meat I buy. Grass-fed, no added hormones and most importantly affordable. Eat better for your body people!"

    jaqueline

    "Your steaks, especially the sirloin, ribeye, and filet mignon are absolutely delicious. Wasn’t sure how these cuts would taste grilled but they taste just as good if not better than cuts I’ve had a top notch steakhouses."

    Mario

    "When our son was diagnosed with a rare medical disorder, it meant that we would have to change our diet as a family. Because his metabolism doesn’t function like a typical person’s, we have to be very careful about what we feed him. One of the changes we made was to use more grass-fed and finished beef in our cooking. We decided to give Pre a try, and we are so happy with the quality and taste of the meat. Buying from Pre gives us peace of mind and we feel confident knowing that we are using a product in the top of its class."

    Lindsay

    "This beef is AMAZING! I'm from Wisconsin so a huge steak lover. This is some of the best beef, I've experienced and I've had beef around the world. It's a must try, and you'll understand what I mean."

    Tracy

    "My husband and I loved having these filets once a week. I sear both sides and "in-between" in a very hot small Lodge cast iron skillet. I use a spatter guard. Then I place the skillet in a 400 degree oven for between 2min. 10-20 seconds. Perfect medium minus filets. My mouth is watering as I write this!!"

    Mary M.

    "These steaks and other Pre products have been a staple in our home for over a year now and we continue to be fully satisfied with their consistently good quality and flavor. They are the perfect size, are delicious and easy to cook. Add Pre’s amazing customer service to it and you end up with an exceptional overall product!"

    K.G.

    "Best steak I've had in a long time. I love being able to order grass fed beef that is way better than I can find in grocery stores. Really tastes great on the grill . I'm addicted to it now."

    Jeff S.

    "First time trying the 10 Pack New York Strips. Oh My! had an unexpectedly warm day and whipped out the grill. Enough said. Delish !!!! Steaks are equally cut making cooking much easier for the desired temp."
