The Bacon Cheeseburger Sausage
Somewhere between brilliance and a sausage wrapped in a chocolate chip pancake on a stick, lay my idea for a bacon cheeseburger sausage. When I first received my meat grinder, I was lost in thoughts about the great hamburgers and sausages I was destined to make with it. At some point those two thoughts melded into one, leading my brain to conceive the bacon cheeseburger sausage. As an American, I feel it was my patriotic duty to set forth and create this totally unnecessary food monstrosity, not so much because I should, but because I could.

A Tale of Two Sausages
I'm on a roll with this sausage making. Maybe I should reconsider changing this here blog to the Sausagewave, as there is no end in sight. If you'll indulge me once again for another venture into the land of sausage, I'll tell you a tale of two sausages you probably already know quite well, and if you don't, please let me introduce Mr. and Mrs. Sweet and Hot Italian Sausage.

What to do When You Can't Get Sausage Off Your Mind
Is there something wrong with you when almost every moment of your day, waking and sleeping, is filled with thoughts of juicy, spicy hot sausages? This is what life has been for me ever since the Big Apple Barbecue Block Party three weeks ago. After consuming a hot link made by Southside Market, it's seemed as if my whole goal in life is to eat more of these overly delicious tubes of spiced beef. I'm even considering taking 1/2 a day of an upcoming 2 day trip to Houston to drive to Elgin to feed my addiction, but even that seems too far away and has not released my brain for alternative thoughts (it's amazing how my designs at work have become very sausage centric). I had to have more, and I had to have it now, so I did the best thing I could think of, and made some of my own.

A Journey Into the Land of Sausage
In a never ending quest to expand The Meatwave, each year sees a new addition that results in more meat. This year is no exception with the acquisition of a meat grinder and sausage stuffer. So as a preview for what's to come this season, and an excuse to play with my new toys, I set out to make my very first sausages ever!
