I love the local aspect you gave the sticks by using Red Leichester. :D I have more fun making sticks than full size salamis; they're great for testing new ideas quickly.

Hendo's relish is only 70 miles away as is Worcester. My ratio of fat to pork was a little high and I'd grind on a #6 plate rather than the #8 that I used, next time. Our preference was for the fuet but that's maybe because the bind wasn't as good on the cheese ones.

Droe Wors Type

This is my version of this famous snack stick; I have added cure #1 and both added a fermentation step and reduced the vinegar. Because the beef I used was so lean, I had to add some pork fat. The warm spices came through nicely and gave this snack stick a Christmas feel, which is good as they were made to be a present.

Lean beef 820 g
Pork back fat 100 g

Ground once through a course plate

Salt 21.2 g
Cure #1 2.1 g
Dextrose 2.8 g
Sugar 2 g
Black pepper 2 g
Coriander 4 g
Nutmeg 0.5 g
Cloves 0.3 g
SafePro F-LC 0.4 g
Apple cider vinegar 30 mL

Stuff into sheep casing

12/4 936 g

pH = 4.95 (44 hrs.)

12/9 (123 hrs.) 624 g (32.6 %)
12/12 (195 hrs.) 519 g (44.6 %)
