Making your own sausages is a great way to control the ingredients and ensure that you're getting a high-quality product. It can also be a fun and rewarding experience.

In this blog post, I will show you how to make bratwurst using only a hand grinder, filler, and a few simple ingredients. This recipe is perfect for making small portions of sausage for daily use.

Instructions:

1. Grind the pork shoulder and pork belly through the fine grinding plate of your hand grinder.
2. In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, salt, pepper, caraway seeds, nutmeg, and egg. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
3. Using the sausage stuffer attachment on your hand grinder, fill the sausage casings with the pork mixture. Be sure to pack the casings tightly so that there are no air pockets.
4. Twist the filled casings into links and prick them with a needle to release any air bubbles.
5. Refrigerate the bratwurst for at least 30 minutes before cooking.

Cooking Instructions:

There are a few different ways to cook bratwurst. Here are two of the most popular methods:

* Grilling Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the bratwurst for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through.
* Pan-frying: Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bratwurst and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through.

Tips:

* If you don't have a sausage stuffer attachment, you can use a spoon or your hands to fill the casings.
* If you don't have sausage casings, you can use plastic wrap to make your own.
* You can also add other spices to your bratwurst, such as paprika, garlic powder, or onion powder.
* Bratwurst can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Making your own bratwurst is a simple and rewarding experience. With just a few ingredients and a hand grinder, you can create delicious sausages that are perfect for grilling, pan-frying, or enjoying in a variety of other dishes.
