Eckerlin Meats Fresh Sausage

From homemade Italian sausage to fresh mett and hot dogs, sausage is an invention of culinary genius. Think about it. The varieties and combinations are endless. Ground meat and spices stuffed into casing. Sausage can be prepared numerous ways, let’s talk about them.

Sausage can be classified by the type of meat that is used. Classically sausage is made from pork. It can also be made from beef, chicken, duck, veal, lamb, anything that can be cut and ground.

Sausage can also be prepared in a number of ways.    It can be fresh, cold smoked, hot smoked, cured, dried, and even pickled.

Even the casing that contains the sausage can vary.    Hog casings are larger. Sheep casings are small.    There are even processed synthetic casings for different uses.

Sausage recipes and methods vary by country and region.    At Eckerlin, we carry both great smoked sausages and fresh sausages that are made the artisanal way.    Each fresh sausage is made with an old hand crank sausage stuffer in 10 lb batches.  We use natural hog and sheep casings and great recipes that have been handed down over the years.
