                                         Ingredients


               3 lbs pork butt                                 1 tsp sugar
               1 chopped onion                                                   2 tsp minced garlic
               ¾ lb pork fat                                                         1 tsp red pepper
               3 tbsp Chile powder                                             1 tsp black pepper
               2 tsp red pepper flakes                                         ½ tsp all spice
               ½ tsp ground bay leaf                                           1.5 tsp thyme
               Hog casings                                                          ½ c chopped parsley
               4 tbsp butter                                   1 can chopped green peppers
               4 tsp kosher salt

                                         Lagniappe


               Blanch the onion, drain and combine with the meat, fat, salt, sugar, garlic,
               spices, and thyme in a large bowl, toss well and marinate in the refrigerator
               for at least 4 to 5 hours.

               Mix the ground meat and fat together evenly. Mix the spices together with
               the milk and water to form a slurry and mix with the meat till it is well
               incorporated. Allow the mix to rest at least overnight in the refrigerator and
               stuff into 6” links.

               Place the sausages in a pan of water and simmer at about 140 for about 20-30
               minutes or until the sausages are set

               Slow smoke at 160-165 for about 2-3 hours.  Bring the links to an internal
               temperature of 153-155.  Remove from the smoker and immediately cool the
               links in cold water and allow them to bloom for a few hours before
               packaging.

               Note: This sausage is very flavorful and “spicy”, do not confuse it with store
               bought “hot links”.  Makes great Po-Boys or cooked for breakfast similar to
               Chorizo.
