Making Brats, Pepperoni, and Kielbasa out of 40 Pounds of Ground Pork.

oh man Evan ! I bet that pepperoni is fantastic !.... the thing people don't realise is how much better pork products taste when you raised the Pig ! all they sell in the grocery store is slop fed pig meat and you can taste the slop in the meat ! but raising your own and only giving them grain and left overs from the garden and table scraps they will be so good you won't want beef again ! LOL the best sausage I ever had in my life came from a home raised hog that the butcher that processed the hog made into a german spice sausage
I made hamburgers out of some of it nothing but a bit of miracle whip and the meat man that was good !!!

You should consider getting a chamber vac sealler.. the bags you are getting for your food savor are very high priced.. you can also do liquids with a chamber vac which you cannot with a food savor I love our chamber vac

you should check out a chamber vav...does super great snf the bags are very low cosr compared to what you are using and you can vaccumn seal liquids

Uhmm, those last 12 seconds.... AWKWARD!!! 😂

Kielbasa sounds a pretty familiar to me because I am living in Poland 🙂 Great job Rebbeca and Evan. Bon appetit 👍

Dude! You're eating something you used to feed! Think about that for just a minute.

Great video. Good content and explanations. On your way to self-reliance!!

Looks really good. I’ve been making Boston burger for years and really like the flavor. It’s 50% ground pork mixed with 50% lean hamburger. Fine flavor and much more affordable than hamburger. I’ve become a big fan. Your videos are very well done. Keep them coming.

Just got to this video and my mouth waters seeing all that Kielbasa. I slice mine up, brown it in butter, add partially boiled potatoes, scrape the bottom of the pot to cover the potatoes with the crust, and add already cooked green beans and sometimes a little more butter if everything is too dry. I get to eat the leftovers when the girls order Chinese!

Hi I am from Brazil. Loved video us. ❤

Nice!

hang the pepperoni in a very cold room so they can dry do not smoke them changes flavor

You guys can have your own cooking 🍳show!!! Daddy, in the 40s/50s had a "smoke house" where they hung meat to cure....with salt/sugar I guess....I don't know if they piped smoke in or not...

Watching an old video on the TV of the excess eggs, and the egg noodles in the plastic bags in the cupboards. I always thought that it a food item contained raw eggs, it should be refrigerated, BUT, you guys are still alive so I guess you was right!!!!!

try the trail bologna. it is very good. much better than plain summer sausage.

Sliczna kielbasa, trans. from Polish, beautiful kielbasa!!!

I like making sausage also, ex-meat cutter here 17 years of cutting.

Most people wouldn't think of electric water bucket for the animals and most folks would only put one light in the middle of the barn!

Time to get a milk cow and start milking every day....and CHEESE AND BUTTER!!!! Actually mozzarella is very easy...

Do more of this. Love your videos

Where are the pork chops, Boston butts, and shoulder ham?

That's breakfast sausage patties

The pork burgers are the real definition of a ham burger. We have used ground pork for burgers for years until my wife had four way bypass surgery and she can't have that much fat. She can eat lean pork, chicken, turkey, and fish. They told her to leave beef on the hoof.

👏👏👏👍

Great job! That all looks amazing.

Always wanted to know what it would turn out like the Pepperoni. Have a cookbook with the recipe. Awesome might try to find mine. Stay safe & take care of you all. Thanks for sharing eh :))

Yummy 😋 inspiring

Impressive job today. You are a “Jack of all trades.”

Great job! All that food looks really good. One of my favorite things is processing food and putting it in the freezer.

What kind of Vacum Packer do you have?

Wow! That all looks so good and I'll bet it tastes better than anything you could buy in the supermarket. My wife has "the bug" now and is looking at getting a sausage stuffing machine. I also want to try to make bacon, especially after watching your video on that.

Looks delicious!

Looks like BBQ-season can begin... 😉

Thanks for the video! 😊👍🏻

Good job, you won't have to go to the store to get meat that you won't know what you are purchasing.

Why do you "band" (to castrate)? Imagine your gonads banded for several days/weeks? Why not just get a vet to do it HUMANELY?

I haven't seen but one or two cats. Cats can be very useful for keeping the snakes and rats 🐀population in check...the animal shelter always has cats available...

So much scrap metal.....I saw where you made the magnet 🧲to pick up the scrap metal....how much $ did the scrap metal bring in...

You are so good at these videos....do you ever make cue cards to remind you of all you want to talk about...

I watch the videos randomly, in no particular order, but was watching the one where you had about 20 or so chickens. I figure you give surplus to your friends and family, but you could also establish regular buyers for extra eggs 🥚....lots of people want fresh eggs....but you know all that....

I love me some Kielbasa.

I would slice up the entire link, and eat it while watching Evan and Rebecca on Country View Acres.

You 2 are living what homesteaders and self substainers are trying to do. You're doing your wife proud Evan. I will bring the beer and wine you provide the sides!!!

Very nice to have on hand for Summer cook-outs.

You just gotta love a man who's comfortable in the kitchen and is committed to keep things healthy and natural . You really look like you enjoy your little homestead and all it can offer you and your family. You get a 🏆❣️🏅 and a medal. I'm sure you have a wife who appreciates you a lot...and vice versa 👍👌❣️❣️❣️😃

I'm hungry

Also, ground pork is great for sausage gravy!! (biscuits)

That ground pork looked real nice!🐖 Great job!

That will make some nice grilling this summer ! Nice job , Shawn from Ohio

Pepperoni (Salami) will harden up with a bit of air drying or curing. The proper casing is air permeable to allow aging/drying
