Got tired of store bought breakfast and hot Italian sausage finally and bought 20 pounds of pork butt. AC Legs #10 for the breakfast, and same brand for the Hot Italian(and it has some heat!). Trimmed and deboned the pork Wed and mixed the cubed meat with the seasoning then stashed in the fridge overnight because my back had enough for the day(I had carried in 4 40 pound bags of wood pellets for heating the house...). Ground and vac bagged the Italian yesterday, and ground and pattied the breakfast sausage in 1/4 pound patties that were also vac bagged for the freezer. Fried a sample patty of both and so much more flavor than what the store bought has turned into! Back is hating on me for all the standing in one spot but I have enough for 6 months now!
To make my back really happy I packed 202 pounds of grass fed organic beef into the freezer today... and had a ribeye steak for supper! $3.39 a pound this year! And that price is cut, wrapped, and delivered to my front door!
