Chorizo Mexican Sausage Recipes

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together.
• Chill before using.

Steps:

• Place the pork, Aleppo pepper, chili powder, garlic, salt, black pepper, oregano, cumin, cloves, and coriander into a bowl, and lightly toss the pork with the seasonings until thoroughly blended. Cover the bowl, and refrigerate the meat, your meat grinder's head assembly, and grinder hopper for 1 hour.
• Fill a large mixing bowl with ice cubes, and place a smaller metal bowl in the ice cubes to catch the ground meat. Assemble the chilled meat grinder, and grind the pork and seasonings using a coarse cutting plate. Return ground meat to refrigerator for 30 minutes. Lightly stir the ground pork with the vinegar and water until thoroughly mixed, form into patties, and refrigerate overnight, covered, to let flavors develop.
• Heat vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat, and pan-fry the patties until browned and no longer pink in the middle, 5 to 8 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Place meat in a large bowl.
• Have everything cool.
• Break up the meat, sprinkle evenly with the rest of the ingredients.
• Make sure everything is evenly mixed by kneading the mixture with your hands.
• At this point the chorizo will keep for at least a couple weeks in your refrigerator, Or let it season for a couple days in your refrigerator, then wrap it in small packages, (3-4 ounces is about right for two people), and it will freeze fine for months.
• It can also be stuffed into casings and smoked like any other pork sausage.

Steps:

• Mix the shortening into the meat very thoroughly then add all the other ingredients and work for at least five minutes.
• Now put it in a crock or porcelain bowl, covered, and let stand twenty four hours.
• Stuff into casing one inch in diameter and pack tightly; tie off every four inches.
• Hang up in a cool, airy pace and chorizos will be ready to use in twenty four hours.
