We started making sausages back in the 70's. Started in early October and ended just before Thanksgiving. We always had large Sausage making parties. Everyone shared in the cost and work. Everyone brought a Pot Luck item to eat when we took a break. These are some of my collection of sausages we made.

Also one to feed the sausage maker and the other to tie or knot them off. Always make a taste test before stuffing, you may want to add more seasonings. To taste test have a skillet and cook a couple of small patties to taste.
