[Sca-cooks] sausage can be fun...

[Carol Eskesen Smith]

The upright ones work pretty well, too.  I'd recommend them.

  Hm... that's a different model than the one we used-- the one we used was
  a rather old version of this:

  http://www.sausagemaker.com/store/publish/cart/purchase1.asp?pid=1127&XPR=05800677076D0B6D056D0505800677076B0B69057005&Sess=&OSt=0&CNID=0185090387096C038804

  However, I can't help wondering if the plunge-style one might be easier to
  operate than the crank for us "Women [and Men] of Size", since we can put
  our body English into it. The crank on the one we were using was a little
  hard to turn-- but I have to admit that, both times I used a Kitchenaid--
  and at least one was one that WASN'T held together with duct tape-- I put
  more muscle into pushing the sausage into the little hopper on top than I
  did cranking the older hand-cranked one!
