I got around to using the sausage attachment for my KitchenAid Mixer this weekend and made my own sausage. It was astoundingly easy. All you do is cut up the meat, add herbs, and run it through the attachment. I didn’t bother with casing since nine times out of ten I cut it off. I ended up with a mild Italian sausage that tasted awesome on this pizza:

I was at one of my favorite kitchen stores this weekend and the employee helping us with the food processors has been cooking for a long time. I was telling him I wanted to food processor primarily for dressing, sauces, cream soups, and gazpacho. He uses a food grinder to make his gazpacho and he says it turns out better than with the food processor. A new application for your grinder!
By the way, if you need a food processor for soups and sauces, 9 cup is your minimum as air gets into the food causing it to expand and require more room in the bowl.

Yum yum! Justin brought this up this weekend… we should try making sausage! But we don’t have a kitchen aid, nor the space for it… One day! That pizza must have been awesome!

Thanks! Man that pizza WAS good. It was the best we’ve made–mostly because of the pizza stone.
