This is what I have been saying. You guys are so authentic with your craft that you even show people how you make your products without fillers. Real honest meats of the highest quality. Your standards are the highest that anyone could hope to achieve.
You guys are my favorite channel on youtube. I'm a former butcher and have learned a ton from you guys. I think I've watched all your videos and have made a ton of the items you've done. I always go to these every deer season for ideas and good professional instructions. I live in southern michigan and definitely want to come out to your guys store one day soon.
I've been making my own bratwurst for 6 years based on a modified Wisconsin brats recipe: half pork mince, half beef mince, salt, ground white pepper, dried herbs (caraway seed, marjoram, nutmeg, ginger, allspice), minced fresh garlic. I make 1kg/2Ib at a time, freeze portions in zip lock bags and then use the defrosted mince to make a ragu and serve with spaghetti. Delicious.
Excellent video. Can I make a suggestion? Would love to see the Bearded Butchers come out with a line of low sodium products. I just survived a severe heart attack on 9-11-22. The Dr. says I gotta cut down on the salts and processed meats. I have started processing my own and following your videos like crazy. Would love some help to continue living this amazing life. Thank you for all you do!!
Thank you so much for your kind words and also for your suggestion for lower sodium content variations of our products! We'll definitely pass this on to the team!
I agree. Low sodium options would be great. I lost a kidney to kidney cancer 9 years ago and it is always a challenge to get low sodium seasoning options that are still full of flavor. .
I love this! Been trying to get a few people in my circles to invest with me into the meat and equipment necessary to do what you do. It would be awesome to no longer be only limited to the flavors of patties and brats sold in our area. Thanks for all you do! Keep on inspiring!

Did a road trip this morning and stopped by and picked up two packages of the brats, some steaks and seasonings. Great place and the help (two young ladies) were nice and friendly. Great video and can’t wait to grill those brats.
I just had breakfast, but after watching this video my mouth is salivating and I am sure I could eat at least a pound of these delicious brats!!! I am tempted to sell my house and move next door to you guys so I can have a steady stream of delicious meat products!!! You guys have kicked your business up several notches since I first started watching your videos!
Greetings from Hungary! I am very happy that I received and tried out my orders from You. I have never eaten such a delicious sausage, my whole family loves the sausages I made with your DIY kits. Thanks for the videos, they inspire me a lot. You are great!!
I purchased the equipment two weeks ago. Got to use it on a deer son-in-law harvested. Everything worked good. Thank you for the video lots of good information. Wouldn’t have attempted with out them.
Them look pretty dam good guys. My butcher shop is starting to get started now. I'm going to have a look into your seasonings and give it a try. Thanks for all the help.
Thank you. This year was epic with your seasonings. Venison bacon Bratwurst…classic with high temp swisss Sausage- maple bourbon motz cheese. I’m a bearded butcher evangelist down here in nc. Thanks guys
Ordered the Jalapeno cheddar around Christmas time and finial had some time that my son could come and help we only made 12 pounds and they cam out Amazing. Defiantly will be ordering some other products in the future to try. Great job guys.
I'm buying my grinder April 3rd and I can't wait to try these! I'm getting the #32 so I can get the mixer in May. Thank you all for the videos! I'll be calling you for spices, etc.!
Watching you guys mix and blend those brats, well they all looked and sound amazing. Personally I'm a cheese lover, and also like some kick to mine. I'd have to say number one choice would be the Jalapeno Cheddar, followed by the Mushroom Swiss. The other two would be a toss up.
Just made the jalapeno cheese kit. I used pork. Great kit. My first time using these type of casings. I think I like them better than hog casings. They are great as breakfast links too. Definitely going to try other kits. I think the maple next.
We have the dried mushrooms available for purchase for DIY Processing! beardedbutchers.com/collections/collections-bearded-butcher-diy-supplies/products/products-dried-mushrooms?_pos=5&_fid=8653b1954&_ss=c
Ok. Educational cuz I didn't know there were different flavors. I only tried brats once and didn't care for it BUT now you boys have me thinking I need to try again. Thank guys
Yesterday we made 75 lbs of smokies and 25 lbs of ground jerkey...diy kits makes it easy to get started but boy oh boy do I want an auto stuffer cranking that stuffer for that much weight is a bit of a workout
Used your method on 12 lbs venison brats with bbb original pork jowl n hi temp cheese an 10 lbs preseasoned patties with bbb black and brisket fat. Now when I watch these vids I can fire up the minimax I bought from you guys and eat instead of watching and drooling all over my phone 😂 Ps both taste phenomenal 😋
I just thought of a recipe. What about making maple and fresh squeezed orange flavored carnitas tacos. Just use less of the maple seasonings and add a Mexican coke. Great on the grill low and slow roasted along with blistered green onions and tomatoes.
So I did a thing....ordered my #32 LEM with Dual Grind feature for an upgrade this year. Trapped two hogs that are on Ice as I type this.....time for brauts and sausage!!
Great video guys. Going to finish and process a steer myself first time this winter thanks to your channel. One area I get a little lost on is the chuck, mostly steps at the saw. Would it be possible to do an in-depth chuck video showing the landmarks and specific cuts you make especially at the saw? Thanks for all you guys do and knowledge you share.
We're going to process a large sow this winter. She's going all in sausage and you've inspired me to try my hand at brats. I'll order some kits soon...well, as soon as they're back in stock!. Thanks y'all!
Can you add the seasoning to pre grind meat then run through the grinder again? Or dose this process only work with meat chunks then seasoning then grinder ?
Cool video..Thx…. At first I was thinking - these guys are Pro’s ( which is true) and they use pro level gear that must cost several thousands… But after following your links to the product sales page I was actually surprised that it was pretty reasonable.. Also,When I preserve bacon I use salt brown sugar … Now I’m thinking your blended maple mix would be even better..I need to try that
@@TheBeardedButchers I make it two different ways, one being more like a pico de gallo with freshly chopped roma tomato, onion, cilantro, jalapeno or a serrano, garlic and about 1/2 - 1 whole habanero, then salt and pepper to taste, perhaps some onion and garlic powder to taste as well for the salsa version i put the onions, garlic, tomatos, some serrano, jalapeno and habaneros on the grill to roast them, combine when done to desired portions in a blender or mortar and pestle, season to taste. for me, i prefer and find the serrano to be more of a savory heat, whereas the jalapeno is more of a biting heat. keep up the good videos!
I worked at Carle's Bratwurst in Bucyrus, Ohio for 3 years as their meat cutter. I got to make the bratwurst for a year or so and it was so fun to learn. Would love to try your brats sometime, hopefully I get the chance. You guys rock. And holy crap the Zlinker would of been awesome to have 😂😂
Love all the videos, especially the history and diy videos. Any chance you guys make a video with the smaller dual grind or smaller grinder? Single father of 5, on a budget, but wanna make healthier known foods for my family. Thanks for the content and God bless
Mango Tango 👍 yummy!!! Love the sweet and spicy!! I also love curry wurst so maybe I would try dried tomatoes and curry in the build along with the brat seasoning.
@@TheBeardedButchers well at the moment the two I heavily rely on to smoke with is either the Brock Lesnar or the black. After watching you guys for over a year I broke down and bought the six pack of spices ( about six months ago) with the wife and I being truck drivers we have only been able to smoke a couple of things at home but the two fore mentioned seasonings are a FAM FAV THUS FAR. I will be sure to write to you and let you know how the other seasonings stack up in a future comment as I plan to smoke a bunch of pork this thanksgiving and maybe some deer or briskets for Christmas. BTW YOUR CONTENT ROCKS KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK
Would it be possible to come out with kits for 5 lbs? As a home sausage maker I usually make 5 lbs or 10 lbs at a time, Just a suggestion. I really enjoy and appreciate your DYI videos.
With the new Meat dual grind could you screw on a stuffing horn and go directly in to your pound or two pound sleeve packages with no additional steps?
I have a question, if you have a moment. we made our first batch of pork breakfast sausage at home. Everything seem to go great with it, until we cooked the first batch. The meat did not turn brown. It was a gray color. It was completely cooked, and tasted great, but I’m curious as to why it’s stayed that color instead of turning brown. Any ideas or suggestions?
Love that video with the next gen “peach fuzzed” butchers of cousins/nephews.. already teaching the future for the next 1 million viewers! Great work TBB!! Are there female relatives butchers in the near future???
Great video guys, my wife and I have recently been discussing getting into making sausage and your kits look like a great way to do that. Maybe I missed it but is there any pink salt in the base mix? Thanks gentlemen!

I would also love to see more low sodium as I also had a heart attack and bypass surgery.
I agree. Low sodium options would be great. I lost a kidney to kidney cancer 9 years ago and it is always a challenge to get low sodium seasoning options that are still full of flavor. .
Eat more leafy greens, sodium is not a problem. You are just potassium deficient.
Add a low sugar product instead.
I love this! Been trying to get a few people in my circles to invest with me into the meat and equipment necessary to do what you do. It would be awesome to no longer be only limited to the flavors of patties and brats sold in our area.
Thanks for all you do! Keep on inspiring!

Just got my .75HP Meat your maker grinder and foot pedal last Saturday. Ground up some fresh venison last night. Absolutely love it!

Those brats look awesome !
Ok. Educational cuz I didn't know there were different flavors. I only tried brats once and didn't care for it BUT now you boys have me thinking I need to try again. Thank guys
Glad to have clarified that bit, John!
The peach is one I would love to try and so is the mushroom swiss.
This was so awesome and educational! LOVING ALL THE CONTENT!!! WOOO!
Woohoo!
Thoes look awesome. I want to try the mango tango ones for sure!
You should!
My god they look amazing you two really know what you are doing it’s great watching you both at work thanks for that Joe
Question about grinding. Why grind two times? Why not grind medium first and done?

Mushroom for the win!

Oh damn...i need to look at that dual grind system!! Been wanting to go that route on a bigger grinder. Hopefully its available for the #32 also.
So I did a thing....ordered my #32 LEM with Dual Grind feature for an upgrade this year. Trapped two hogs that are on Ice as I type this.....time for brauts and sausage!!
Did you freeze the mushrooms before you added them. I just made the mango tango brats with pork they are a hit can't wait to get the peach one
I'm definitely going to have a go at making all of these, I like the sound of each one 👍👍👍

Please do!
Excellent as always. Just ordered a haul of your brat kits....Can't wait to throw them on the grill.
Enjoy!!
I just ate and you literally had my mouth watering.
This is your cue to get some Brats, Noni!
Can you add the seasoning to pre grind meat then run through the grinder again? Or dose this process only work with meat chunks then seasoning then grinder ?
With your products do you suggest using pork with venison of course for the fat?

Love it!
You guys are awesome! Cant get enough! Do you think these brat mixes could be used for smoked sausage as well?
Yep, it can!
WOW, they all look excellent. But I'm from New Mexico, I gotta try the jalapeno and cheddar!!!
Definitely a must-try!
I love the videos!!! I have learned a whole lot from them!!
So glad!

We love you guys thinks for all the good tip and all the good video lots of learning always good
thoughts on doing a video on making Jerky? like which part of the cow makes the best jerky?
Yep, pretty much
Thanks guys this is great!
Our pleasure!
Planning on doing this with one of my doe tags here in ID. how much pork fat should I add to the mix to get the best brat.
I would like to try the mushroom and Swiss.
Got a sausage stuffer in a new grinder for Christmas. Can’t wait to try it in a few weeks and follow your videos.
Brats look amazing! Good job fellas!!
You have such great flavors. Wow
That’s pretty cool you guys are using maple sugar from here (Maine)
I love your content idk why but i do. Also wow those looked amazing!! Mouth watered the whole video
Love all the videos, especially the history and diy videos. Any chance you guys make a video with the smaller dual grind or smaller grinder? Single father of 5, on a budget, but wanna make healthier known foods for my family. Thanks for the content and God bless
It works the same even with smaller grinder. Just need not load it a lot and take little longer.
If I wanted to do this but venison? What venison to pork ratio would you use? 80/20? 70/30?
Did you try those ratios?
Your videos are such a joy to watch and I learn also, WIN, WIN.
Glad you like them!
That sounds like a fantastic recipe. Yummy
Mango Tango 👍 yummy!!! Love the sweet and spicy!! I also love curry wurst so maybe I would try dried tomatoes and curry in the build along with the brat seasoning.
Nice! Give it a go and let us know how it goes, David!
Great video, so there is no need to soak the collogen casings?
Great video! I have one question, do you not have to wash and wet the collagen casings like you do when you purchase and use other hod casings?
Can't wait to start doing this myself.
Jalapeño and cheddar sounds pretty good
Very good to hear!
Thank you guys so much for sharing this information!I just appreciate it 🥰🥰🥰😊!
Always an honor to share our knowledge with you guys, Eddie!
My mouth was watering for all but the mushroom ones never was a mushroom lover...but great how to my wife and I have been talking doing this
Another awesome video guys!!
I'm loving the seasonings you guys sale as well
Which seasoning is the best for you at the moment?
@@TheBeardedButchers well at the moment the two I heavily rely on to smoke with is either the Brock Lesnar or the black. After watching you guys for over a year I broke down and bought the six pack of spices ( about six months ago) with the wife and I being truck drivers we have only been able to smoke a couple of things at home but the two fore mentioned seasonings are a FAM FAV THUS FAR.

BTW YOUR CONTENT ROCKS
KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK
For the mushroom, are your diced mushrooms frozen, dehydrated or freeze-dried?
Would it be possible to come out with kits for 5 lbs? As a home sausage maker I usually make 5 lbs or 10 lbs at a time, Just a suggestion. I really enjoy and appreciate your DYI videos.
Not at the moment, but we appreciate the idea, John!
I was thinking just measure out half the seasoning and do half the meat. 12.5 lbs is more manageable in the home environment .
With the new Meat dual grind could you screw on a stuffing horn and go directly in to your pound or two pound sleeve packages with no additional steps?
The end is the best part......
Did you guys freeze those mushrooms before you mix them in? Definitely ordering some now
Yum..good to see you two..take care
Hello there. Good afternoon how are you doing today?have a blessed day❤
Looks delicious guys, making me hungry!
I sure would like to try the mushroom Swiss ones!
Hello there. Good afternoon how are you doing today?have a blessed day!❤
So whether it’d be venison, beef or pork there’s no need to add any water, milk powder, etc into the mix?
I have a question, if you have a moment. we made our first batch of pork breakfast sausage at home. Everything seem to go great with it, until we cooked the first batch. The meat did not turn brown. It was a gray color. It was completely cooked, and tasted great, but I’m curious as to why it’s stayed that color instead of turning brown. Any ideas or suggestions?
Will you be adding German and Italian mixes to your line?
Great video! Do the peach and mango rehydrate, or do they stay chewy?
They rehydrate and are no longer chewy 😊
Love that video with the next gen “peach fuzzed” butchers of cousins/nephews.. already teaching the future for the next 1 million viewers! Great work TBB!! Are there female relatives butchers in the near future???
Great video guys, my wife and I have recently been discussing getting into making sausage and your kits look like a great way to do that. Maybe I missed it but is there any pink salt in the base mix? Thanks gentlemen!
Hello there. Good afternoon how are you doing today?have a blessed day!❤

Welcome!
I’ve been looking for a good linker. Does that Zlinker work good with natural casings?
Can you use the maple seasoning to make breakfast sausage, without adding other ingredients?
