Casing Sausage for Beer and Brats by Warren Peterson, Corporate Sous Chef

Here I am casing up my sausage.  I came up with the idea for “Hungarian goulash flavors:” paprika, caraway, onion, and garlic in an all-pork sausage.  I’m pairing this with Hale’s O Brien’s Harvest Ale at tonight’s Beer and Brats.  The ale is very malty, so it’s sweet from the malt.  The sausage is spicy, and I think sweet and spicy naturally go together.  Brian (Palace Chef) is making traditional bratwurst and Brock (Dahlia Chef) is making Merguez, I think.  See you at 5pm at Palace Ballroom!

    Hi Warren,

    Those were delicious sausages that you, Brock, and Brian crafted for the event, and it was fun to pair them with beers. Also great to chat with you about kid-friendly taphouses around town! I epecially enjoyed Al’s beer and the Estate ale from Sierra Nevada.

    It might be fun to do a beer/brat session at next year’s summer camp. Perhaps a couple hands-on sausage making stations with some beers to go with?

    Thanks again…
