Servings: 2 pounds, or about 12 to 14 sausages
1 ½ pounds ground pork
½ pound ground beef
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon salt
1 ¼ teaspoons black pepper, coarsely ground
2 teaspoons brown sugar
¾ teaspoon marjoram
½ teaspoon allspice
¼ teaspoon liquid Barbecue Smoke (R), optional
2 tablespoons textured vegetable protein plus
¼ cup water, optional
sausage casings
Knead together the pork, beef, and garlic in a large bowl. Combine the remaining ingredients in another bowl, then combine both mixtures, thoroughly kneading the flavorings into the meat. Stuff the casings to form 18 to 24-inch links, then tie the two ends together, forming a ring. Refrigerate overnight to blend the flavors before cooking in your favorite manner. Kielbasa may also be smoked.
