Unwrapped my Xmas presents and there was an electric mincer/stuffer....fantastic as I have been after one for a while and my other half has been sorting it out without me knowing....along with the stuffer was a few kg's of rusk and a bag of hog casings. Went and got some pork today...made the mistake of ordering quantities in Kg' s instead of lbs, so currently have half a mix waiting whilst more hog casings soak... :roll: s'pose I'll get used to it.

Anyway just done a pile of pork and fresh thyme with black pepper, a load of pork with chilli and garlic which are fantastic and now awaiting my pork, chilli, garlic with a hint of lemongrass and lime. (Just had a small patty of this to test....hmmmmmmm.. :shock: ) These should go a treat with the chilli jam I did last month!

Some fantastic recipes posted on the forum and before I started I read various posts for around three hours so I had a bit more of an idea of what I was doing. Great forum !!! 8) 8)

Well Done Mike,

Welcome to the forum, it looks as if you are off to a flying start, good for you. Amazing what a few hours of browsing will teach you isn't it!

Enjoy the hobby, the rest of us do!

I second that!

Nothing better than a hobby where you get something good to eat at the end of it all.
