    Hi Eric, I'm wondering about the water inside the smoker..dont do this, why? The result of the ready product, the colour.
    When I do Bockwurst or the smaller "vienna sausage", it is very important, that the saussage is outside DRY! So here my way> stuffed sausage hanged in the smoker, heater (electric) set on100F,that dries them very easy. use fan like below too.after aproxm 1h add smoke, the smoke boxes like you used are making less smoke, therefore I'm using a little smoker inside the smoke box and heat em up with indirect airblow from an old PC fan. Result..dry Bockwurst and a huge amount of smoke for 30min to 1h. depends what colour you prefer.The butcher here always use fan inside for even colouring, and they use a lot of smoke
    After all, the Bockwurst each mm in diameter 1min to cook in 170F preheated water and lightly salted!! add ons like left overs from the stuffer are welcome too. Prevents of loosing taste, out of the pot and chill it in ice cold water, can be frozen in vacuum for later

    instead of corn or potato starch use some with redden..makes the wurst more pink, taste will be the same
    regards from bavaria,germany

    I worked at a butcher shop that made Bockwurst- absolutely delicious, so glad to see this video, and exited to prepare the sausage again. Great job, as always, Eric!

    Looks great, defiantly going on the list to try, glad to see it isn't always smoked as it's already too cold for my smoker up here, I'll just poach or sous vide them, thanks for another great recipe.

    I'm Bavarian, never heard that story of naming the Bockwurst, but who knows. No idea why Bockbier is called that either, a Bock is generally a male goat or sheep or deer etc. Maybe because Bockbier hits you harder faster? Who knows.
    Bockwurst is also available all over Germany, Currywurst was developed at a food stand in Berlin (still exists today), which is decidedly NOT in Bavaria.

    I'll spend some more time making regular sausages (made some great Nuremberg ones) before investing in a commercial grade machine, but I do want to make Weisswurst eventually, my all time favorite sausage. So one of these days, I'm sure a box with one of those machines will show up here too. In Germany they call them Kutter, they look different, a round ring shaped bowl that rotates and fast moving knives are horizontal under a lid cutting the meats, but works the same. I always wondered if Kutter is just a Germanification of the English word cutter? You can buy Kutterhilfsmittel to make sausages, I think they include emulsifiers and curing salt? I bought some when I was over there this summer, but haven't had a chance to work with them.

    Eric, this looks fantastic, I doubt however that many of your fans have a commercial grade food processor. Probably everyone has Cuisinart. Any alternative technique?

    Looks like a winner or wiener either way it sounds good! Wouldn't you think "Bockwurst" would be Chicken? I thought for sure this would have Beer in it after the intro. These should be some nice links. I like all beef Hot Dogs but if it's good that's all that matters.
