preparing sausage for winter

Neighbour Pete's adventure in pig-raising turned out well and we had a day of sausage making in the kitchen. We borrowed the Zomers family sausage machine and Tom made chorizo and bratwurst and smoked some of them....delicious. We rendered the lard for pies and Pete ended the week with a grand pig roast in the snow at the Jacksons. It was minus 20 that day...but the piggy was delicious.
