Yorkie, I don't need a funnel cos with my current stuffer the body is removable and I will use that vertically. All she will have to do is pour in a set amount of the mix. I could even clamp it vertically to one of the outdoor chairs or even the back door if I remove the plunger, which only takes a few seconds. Then she won't have to get involved. I will however, cover the floor with polythene just in case. I shall only make it in small batches as the wife has similar tastes to yours ie doesn't like black pudding. I'll send one up to the father in law though cos he likes it.
I'll let you know, might be a week or two.
Question:- Can Black Pudding be frozen once cooled?
