If you've raised and butchered your own pigs, you might be wondering what to do with the surplus meat. Why not transform it into delicious, nutritious sausage?
Join Michelin-Star Chef Josh Lanning of Slow Hand BBQ for an engaging and educational Sausage-Making Workshop.  Josh will guide you through the rich history and culinary art of sausage-making.
We'll start by exploring the fundamental question: Why does sausage exist? Then, dive into the craft of sausage-making with Josh's "master-ratios"—the perfect balance of proteins, fats, and spices. We’ll also discuss the importance of meat sourcing and how the diet of the pig can affect your sausage.
What you'll learn:
  • The theory behind sausage-making and meat sourcing
  • Techniques for making both bulk and encased sausages in a home kitchen
  • Equipment options and ingredient sourcing
The workshop will conclude with a live demonstration and sausage tasting! Don’t miss this opportunity to learn the art of sausage-making and enjoy your creations.
