The Complete Idiot's Guide to Sausage Making: Techniques and Recipes for Home-Fresh, Delicious Sausage

Great little book. Purchased for my son in law, after he stated the last book on sausage making I got him read like a science book. Love the amount of recipes in this book, I think this is going to be a go to book for all his sausage making adventures. Great item for the price..Highly recommended for beginners

I absolutely love this book. Exactly what i was looking for. Straight forward, interesting, great recipes, and everything you need to get started making your own artisan sausage. This is the only book you need to learn how to make great sausage. Very well written. Don't let the title discourage you, it is for anyone interested in making their own sausage. One reviewer was obviously offended by the title but i doubt they read it. This book doesn't talk down to the reader or anything. Just good information.

Some good recipes and very easy to read/follow. I was confused w/ certain recipes for bulk and linked sausage. For example in the bulk Italian recipe there are almost twice the amount of ingredients as there are in the link recipe. I felt the bulk recipe had much more flavor and depth so I used it to make links and they turned out great. A little vague when it comes to smoking/curing meats. I would recommend this for someone who is JUST starting off but feel a seperate book on the cooking/smoking, curing of meats should be purchased.

I received the book and have looked thru however have not used as far as making sausage at this time. Looks like it is easy to use and has basic info. Will let you know once hunting season has come and gone and we are munchin down on sausage

This is a great source for the first-time or new-comer to the world of sausage making. Great detail and insight to the process and the necessary cautions that would be easily overlooked. Very good recipes and info on the process to make the process SIMPLE! We will be looking for more on the subject as we expand our endeavor into this "old world" process of preserving meats and making fresh products without chemicals we do not want to consume.

I highly recommend this book. I am new to trying sausage making at home. I just made the Mexican chorizo with half venison and it turned out great. I just did the bulk sausage but plan to venture into putting it in casings. This book has every type of sausage for the beginner. It's not overwhelming reading it. I can't say enough good about it other than you won't be sorry you purchased it.

I have many sausage books and this might not be the best book for the actual details of smoking sausage since it say to 'follow your smokers instructions' but their are many great recipes and it gave me some pointers on smoking. I would recommend buying it.

When we decided to try making sausage we tried four or five different books from the library. This book was by far the best of all of the ones that we read. It had excellent recipes, as well as clear directions and explanations of the process. If you are going to use just one book, this is the one to use.

Easy, clear instructions with great recipes. Easily the best book on sausage making I've found.I would not hesitate to recommend this book

A great book suited to beginner or experienced user. good advice and tips throughout with some superb recipes.

Has helped greatly with my first try at sausage making, well written and explains all the things to look out for.
