Cube the pork meat into small pieces.

Freeze the cubed pork for 30-40 minutes to chill.

Prepare the spices and mix them together including sausage mix, pink curing salt, sodium erythorbate, yellow mustard seeds, freshly minced garlic, marjoram, and brown sugar.

Grind the chilled pork through a meat grinder using the small die.

Mix the ground pork with the prepared spices and add water until the mixture is tacky.

Stuff the sausage mixture into 28mm casings, twisting and tying off at the ends.

Hang the sausages in front of a fan for 2 hours to dry the casings.

Smoke the sausages in a pellet cooker for about 6 hours using post oak pellets.

After smoking, place sausages in an ice bath to cool them down.

Grill the sausages until they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees.
