Pushing the sausage out of the stuffing tube
Pushing the sausage out of the stuffing tube
I have been using a grinder to stuff, and though I'll buy a dedicated stuffer soon, I suspect they have the same problem.
When I finish emptying the grinder, the stuffing tube still has several sausages worth of filling inside.
I have been removing the tube and pushing the meat out manually with a dowel, but I stumbled on an easier method, and I wanted to ask your opinions.
I run a couple of slices of bread through the grinder and out thru the stuffing tube. When it enters the casing I stop, pinch out the bread and then go on to link the sausages.
Very simple. Doesn't stop the process, and though it wastes a couple of slices of bread, seems a very easy approach.

The Stuffer I use at home, left-over in the stuffer body is very little, excluding the meat in the stuffer tube of course.
Over time I acquired 3 different diameter sized plastic rods, one size for each stuffer tube size, push the meat out with them. Life made easy!
The rice or bread method also works as well, but I do not have any pets around my home so it would be wasted.
