Homemade Bratwurst - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 lbs pork (I use butt as the fat ratio is perfect)
2 lbs lean beef
2 eggs
1 cup beer
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper, ground
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon paprika (I use smoked)
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 tablespoon dry mustard (I use Colemans)
1 tablespoon coriander
1 teaspoon sage, ground
5 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons sugar, white
2 teaspoons onion powder

Preparation

Cut the pork and beef into 2 inch cubes.
Grind through a 1/4 inch grinding plate.
If you do not have a meat grinder you can pulse it in your food processor in SMALL batches.
In a small mixing bowl beat eggs and beer together until well blended.
Add dry ingredients.
In a large mixing bow combine the ground meat and wet mixture until well incorporated.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 2 hours, up to 24.
The longer the better.
At this point you can either stuff into casings or wrap in 1 pound packages which is what I do, then freeze.
