WIENER

Steps:

• Grind meats through 5 mm (1/4") plate. Keep lean meats separately from fat trimmings. Refreeze and grind again 3 mm (1/8") plate.
• Mix lean beef with all ingredients adding 1/3 (50 ml) of cold water. Add lean pork and 50 ml of cold water and mix again. Add fat trimmings and the last part (50 ml) of water and mix everything well together.
• Stuff firmly into 24-26 mm sheep casings. Form 4-5" (10-12 cm) long links.
• Hold at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• When sausages feel dry apply hot smoke 60-70º C (140-158º F) for about 60 minutes until they acquire brown color.
• Cook in water, at 75º C (167º F) until internal meat temperature reaches 68-70º C (154-158º F). This should take about 25 minutes.

WIENER BITES

Steps:

• Wieners that are 5 inches (13cm) in length can be cut into 6 pieces each for bite-size servings. (I don't usually count. I just cut them up into little bites).
• Fry bacon slices until fat part has lost its whiteness. Do not fry until crisp or it won't roll. Cut slice in half crosswise and lengthwise. Allow to cool.(I usually do about 4 slices of bacon in the microwave for about 4 to 5 minutes. Then while I am getting the next plate ready to microwave, the first batch of bacon is cooling.).
• When cool enough to handle, wrap around wiener section and secure with toothpick. Uncooked bacon may be used but it takes longer to cook (they need broiling) at the last minute.
• To serve: Arrange on baking tray (or plate for microwave) and heat in hot oven, 400°F (200°C) until sizzling hot. Can be kept hot on serving tray. (We served them piled nice and high in a pretty bowl.)
• Watch for toothpicks!

SPICY GLAZED WIENER BITES

Steps:

• Cut slashes in each little wiener. In a 2 quart saucepan over medium heat, combine cranberry sauce, mustard,lemon juice,and salt. Cook untill cranberry sauce melts and mixture is smooth, stirring constantly.Add wieners. Heat through. Serve hot with cocktail picks
