Genoa Salami | Celebrate Sausage S04E06

[@EricLofland]

Would love to get that sharpening kit and love your channel. Thanks fellow Eric!

[@Patrick-ou6wb]

I highly recommend Eric's video about sharpening the grinder pieces. I don't have the special equipment but it still kind of works with a flat surface and sandpaper

[@aaronoldgoat4448]

I have been learning a lot from your shows I recently retired from the Navy after 24 years and I am enjoying my best life with my wife and a large part of this is because of your shows thank you so much and a cold smoker would put my products on a whole different level I’m currently using a Weber grill. God bless!

[@ConcreteKahuna]

Would love to be able to easily sharpen my grinder equipment! Thanks for the great content

[@Mark_Lacey]

Your enthusiasm for sausage-making is infectious.

[@fuckjoebidentraitor1262]

Oh, the innuendos.

[@pattyvidayanakorn8178]

Its their biz they always got sponsered

[@Nick_the_Greek1221]

My old 1/4hp Hobart could use some love by sharpening. Love this time of year Celebrating Sausage!

[@cayenneman08]

I need that Jende System in my life! Sausage maker for many years and patreon member as well. Cheers!

[@MarkRichie]

Thank you for the great content Eric. I would like to throw my name in for the Jende lapping plate. I have used your method of sharpening and am convinced how important sharp equipment is. The lapping plate would just make my efforts more effective. Thanks Again

[@aaronhill5635]

Getting a grinder for Christmas. I would love the sharpening system to keep it sharp. Love your videos! I learn so much from them.

[@EvitaCooks]

Thank you very much for another wonderful video, as always you are the champ in your class and we appreciate all your hard work and dedication. Winning the blade will be the greatest treat and honor. God Bless

[@KellyEarl]

The one aspect of making salami for me that is most satisfying is sharing it with others!! And to continue to provide I need a sharpening kit!!

[@ronalddore2872]

I would love that sharpening system. You're right, it does get expensive buying replacement knives and plates. Great job on the Genoa!!!

[@johnnyk1954]

Never sharpened my grinder plates. lol Need to, but do not have the equipment. Thanks for the videos! Love watching your channel.

[@arkyhunter2750]

Looks great. Ive got some old plates and knives that I would love to try and sharpen up.

[@mikej9564]

Love your channel. I watch your videos as soon as I see them posted. Purchased a meat grinder and 5 pound stuffer about a year and a half ago. I’ve only used it about once a month. I wondered how the pieces could be sharpened and those questions were answered here on the channel. The lapping plate and sandpaper would be a nice addition to keep my equipment sharp. Thank you Jenda for sponsoring!

[@davidward1259]

I really need to check out that knife/plate sharpening video. I have a number of plates that have never been sharpened. Thanks for another great video on sausage making!

[@deangustafson7533]

I’ve been purchasing extra knives for my grinder. I can see the benefit of the sharpening kit, and that would save having to wait for the new blade to arrive in the mail.

[@buddyknoles2553]

You are amazing with your talents for teaching. Thank you for all the things you do. I have learned so much. I really do need to sharpen all my plates and both my blades. It would be a dream come true having a way to sharpen my tools . Thank you for all you do.

[@jdhiv4]

One video every day! You must've been banking them all Summer! Nice! Yes, I'd love a sharpening system!

[@Walt1119]

Great videos, love the sausage seasons!!!! All the different kinds! And yes, would like that lapping plate... Thanks for sharing w us.

[@fathersonandskillet]

Every sausage in the series is an education in the art of sausage. We notice a big difference in how much more quickly and cleanly our grinder works through a batch of meat when the plate and knife are sharp. We'd love to have a good system for keeping things sharp.

[@2guysandacooler]

Congratulations!!! Your name was selected to win the Jende Knife & Plate Sharpening System. Contact me to claim your prize eric@twoguys&acooler.com

[@fathersonandskillet]

@@2guysandacooler thank you!

[@ahoghead3820]

A sharpening system sure would be handy. Still one of my favorite channels. Keep up the good work.

[@robc9706]

A little bit out of my league at this point but watching you make this salami is inspiring. I do my best to keep all my grinding blades sharp by using a piece of plate glass shelf from an old medicine cabinet and adhere 300 grit polishing paper to it with water. It works ok but the Jende sharpening system would be a definite step up. Thanks for video guys it was really informative.

[@mikenewman4078]

Thanks for not just the content but also validating my obsession for sharpening my mincer working parts.

[@michaelordakowski3882]

I'll agree.. Keeping the tools of the trade sharp in primo condition is key to a successful product outcome. My knives and plates are in dire need of sharpening and really haven't found a best way to accomplish that task. I will be checking our Jende Industries! P.S. Still entering the giveaway just in case I can get lucky! 🙂

[@dannatashag.2156]

I have learned so much from each season of celebrate sausage, including how to sharpen my blades and plates. I followed your video and at least twice a year I'm sharpening. Winning this system would just make it easier and more efficient. I am trying to hone my skills so that I can get into cured and fermented sausages. Damn I love this hobby!!

[@Fed2thewolves]

I don't have a plate sharpener yet so I use a rough and abrasive surface, such as a concrete sidewalk or a metal file. I like to avoid using any lubricant or coolant during the sharpening process and I apply a lot of downward force when sharpening while randomly rubbing the plates on the abrasive surface. When Im finished, it goes right back to cutting my sausage meat.😁

[@mtnman_ty]

As an archery hunter, I am well versed in sharpening knives and broadheads... but I have never once thought about sharpening my grinder plates/knives! Jende might come in handy there!

[@joshuaevans5317]

I would love the sharpening system. I definitely need to touch up my grinder before giving this recipe a try! Looks great, thanks!!

[@joelewandowski8232]

I've got stones for sharpening but would gladly accept a easier system. Thanks for the chance and good luck to all.

[@luffingsails7542]

Definitely need to get my curing cabinet going. haha. This one is beyond our capabilities right now. I am still using a sharpening stone here at home. Anything other than that has got to be better for keeping blades sharp!

[@leopayment1001]

I never knew about sharpening the plate. Thanks for the good information.

[@paulriley4420]

I make sausage once a year, but, my goodness, I love this time of year when you show the magicians craft. I am no where near this level and I don't care. Craft takes experience and thank you for sharing yours

[@cerramouspe1]

Would love to make this salami. The plate and knife sharpener would be a nice addition to my equipment. Thanks Eric!

[@allenewan4917]

Great video, very informative on how to shapen blades and making one my favorite salami.

[@PaulArmstrong-x4p]

Eric, I have been curing and smoking for years. You are inspiring me to get the salami and dry curing! Just started a coppa, and rounding up the stuff for my first salami. Could use the sharpening stuff to kick me off. Had no idea you could sharpen your plates blades. Been using my grinder for years, and never sharpened. Just watched your how to on that as well. Great content! I have really enjoyed your channel!

[@cabighorse]

We are increasing the complexity of our sausage making adventures. Having the Jenda Sharpening tools on hand would remove some of the stress involved. Thank you for sharing these tools and equipment with your viewers

[@brianhyatt8566]

Oh to have razor sharp knives and equipment. I would be very close to heaven. Love this channel. I learn SO much here. Thank you and God bless!!!

[@kevint9900]

Thanks for my daily sharpening of my sausage making skills. The Jende would definitely improve my equipment. Keep up the great work.

[@cjohn678]

Loving this year's content so far! I would love to have the sharpening supplies. Thanks to your amazing sponsors who are willing to help out with giveaways!

[@anthonycarroll941]

Just getting into sausage making and picked up a grinder would love to keep the knife and plates sharp. Looking forward to more of your videos.

[@johnec0042]

Another great video, the Jende Sharpening System would definitely up my game!

[@mikew9568]

I could really use that lapping plate. I've used your sharpening technique before and it's legit. Works great!

[@BarHRanch]

Love those Jende sharpening tools. Blades never sharper.

[@fredcummings3953]

I might not be the sharpest tool in the drawer but a system from Jende would definitely help the situation! Love this series, thank you.

[@jere29555]

That sharpening system would be great. Thank you for the great videos.

[@ShepFL002]

Watched your DIY drying chamber and getting parts now. Very educational - I like the secrets you shared. Great tip on the razor sharp blades and plates. I try to match my knife to my plates.

[@johnnovis6968]

I loved the 1st 3 seasons and could really use the sharpening system as always loved the episode Erick.

[@Crossing98]

Thanks so much for all the information you give. A lapping kit would be awesome, doing things myself is my favorite part.

[@marknelson148]

Thank you for all the amazing content. I really love the sharpening system, I have finally made enough of your recipes that My equipment needs a good once over. Thank you again

[@danhowell390]

I need that Jende sharpening system, so I can keep my grinder as sharp as your sausage game! Keep up tue great work, loving the season so far.

[@waynepotter881]

Love your channel. I could put the Jensen sharpening system to good use. Again keep up the good work.

[@KingSam63]

Love your channel. Been a sub for years. A lapping plate would be awesome. At the moment I use a stone. Does a fair job at best.

[@corn0717]

Another great video!! New to sausage making this year and have used the same cutting knife with multiple die's. I need to buy a few more die dedicated knives and bring them back up to the sharpness they deserve!

[@johnbruney1042]

I just got my dry chamber setup. Thank you for all the great videos on calibrating Govees and Inkbirds!!! Starting out with whole muscles so I won’t be grinding anything, BUT… I am originally from the New Orleans area and had to move away following hurricane Katrina. I have grown tired of paying for the shipping costs so I have been making my own Boudin and Andouille sausage. I haven’t been doing it long, but I’m sure that I could definitely benefit greatly from a great sharpening system for my blades and plates!!

[@bonnieshaffer9983]

It would be amazing to never have to buy a grinding plate and knife again! That lapping plate should do the trick.

[@Lurch06]

That sharpening system would be a great addition to the whole kit since I don’t have one yet.

[@garyroger4217]

Hi Eric Really like your shows . As a newbie to sausage making I appreciate every knowledge you can share. Would apricate a Nice a Sharpening system from Jenede Thanks again for your support for sausage makers

[@adampendleton6398]

Boy howdy would a sharpener set have saved me two 😢😢 heartbreaks when I had a fat smeared soppressata AND salami! Hoping to win! Love your content. You’re the only recipes I use for my salumi. I have a culatello hanging out until next spring!

[@mikenicholson2548]

Would love a great sharpening kit for my grinder plates and knifes. Your videos are very informative. Thanks

[@frankdodaro2522]

That's awesome. It's great looking, salami love it ❤🥂🥂🇨🇦

[@bobricker9139]

We have been butchering our own pork for years and the grinder needs sharpening. Now I know how to do that. Thanks for the info.

[@joeheater6678]

Eric thank you for all the great ideas. I really could use this sharpening system.

[@toddharris9466]

I'm going to need the sharpening set badly within a couple months. I have a litter of pigs on the ground and will start harvesting them next month! I see LOTS of sausage making coming over the winter!

[@Skrewtap]

Don't think I've ever sharpened my blade or plates. Definitely should do that!

[@jffsilva0]

I’d love a sharpening system like that. Great video - I really appreciate how succinct and precise your instructions are.

[@Texas4x]

Looks great. My grinder knives need that honing and sharpening system badly!

[@macmccarrick6165]

With prices going up I like any way to preserve food . I have salted beef and pork and am finishing a root cellar that maintains 54 degrees with great humidity. Thanks for all your content.

[@GeorgeDrown]

Truly enjoy watching your video's and learning new recipes. Could always use a new sharpening system for my grinder plates/blades. 🐷

[@bradlywiebe3673]

Thanks a million for this. I'm just starting out so I'm leery of trying to make Genoa just yet, but Genoa salami for me is hands down the best sausage in the world. I literally melt every time I eat it lol.

Good info to have, I've used a thick pane of glass and some fine wet sand paper to sharpen mine.

[@rickf.9253]

I would love to have that sharpening set for an upcoming sausage day! Another great Celebrate Sausage Month!

[@josephprice8000]

Thanks for all the work you put in to this. My wife and I have started processing our own calves and pigs. This is a great help, thanks.

[@robhunt9055]

😮 I've never seen that soaking trick for removing the skin before, excellent result!

[@trashmaster2071]

I’d love a sharpening system like that. Great video!

[@robertmalis4493]

As usual, and amazing episode Eric, by having that sharpening system for my plates and knives would be amazing. It would save me from having to buy new knives. And plates.

[@danc00]

Another great recipe and video.Thanks for perpetuating the art of sausage making at home. As a young boy I helped my grandparents at this time of the year making Genoa salami in upstate New York. A true joy and family tradition.

[@richardskultety1296]

Thanks for another great video. I always appreciate your advice on making the sausage making process easier and better. I definitely need to sharpen my grinder plates and knives.

[@ricardo9208]

Amazing as always, I'm doing this one next, but I reallyyyyy need that jende equipment, I think my grinding plates need that sharpness again! Thank you as always Eric!

[@cblazer454]

I would love to win the sharpening set, watching your videos has given me the confidence to finally attempt making sausages after years of hesitation!!

[@absoz]

We absolutely looooove ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ our salami here. So useful in many ways, with a bit of cheese, on some crackers, in a sandwich (both plain and toasted), pizza topping, even plain (cold and warmed up), incredibly versatile Though I prefer with a bit more heat in it than my wife - our son somewhere in between I was drooling when you opened that cabinet up to take it out, the growth on the outside looked phenomenal. Great trick with taking the casing off (if desired). And those peppercorns once you opened it up and sliced it - hooley dooley. You’re a master at work there Eric. You make it all look soo simple

[@AlainCharbonneau-m7e]

Thank you for this video. As a beginner in charcuterie, every help from you is a blessing. As for salami… today you hit the spot for me 😊 Thanks again

[@grumpybaldguy]

I usually touch up my grinding plate and knife before every session. Seems to help a lot.

[@JAdams-jx5ek]

Love Genoa salami. Making it with a sharp blade is essential. Jende's sharpening system is ideal. Better than mine.

[@JohnKit88]

I have made sausage a bunch now all inspired from you and Chuds BBQ, I want to thank you and others for giving me the know how to make some delicious sausage

[@troybutler5534]

Best channel around, have followed you for the last 4 years, I have learned so much

[@2guysandacooler]

Wow, thanks!

[@marvincarle1313]

Always wondered if I had to sharpen. Would love a kit.

[@BobBeck-q9d]

Love the show. It inspired me to get back into sausage making after 20 years absence. Thank you

[@2guysandacooler]

That is awesome!

[@patrickleahy8058]

I look forward to this month on your channel each year!

[@jonwoody3572]

As always lots of good information and because of you i started without fear now making my own dried sausages ! ( and a lapping plate would be realy nice ) Thanks for all your hard work, to show us how we have to make all sorts of dried sausages!

[@frankieg9585]

Thanks, Eric for your enthusiasm and all you do in educating us newbies. Keep up the great work!

[@2guysandacooler]

Thank you for comment. lots more to come!!

[@victormaack2353]

I am excited about the possibility of winning a sharpening system for my grinder plates. Once again another great video Eric. Cheers

[@williamadair1327]

Been watching for a couple of years now and have certainly upped my game. Love the channel!

[@JoeJulie]

Man, wish I had a lapping plate…. Lol. Thank you for making all of these videos for us. I’m almost ready to start my sausage endeavor and with your help it’s gonna be awesome!

[@fogfishing1285]

Great video as always - thanks for sharing your knowledge. I have never used a lapping plate, just a hard flat surface, but I think that a plate like that would be much better.

[@DBadge1975]

Definitely need a sharpening system in the toolbox!

[@mattreich6573]

This is going to be my first year making salami, and Genoa is on my list! That lapping plate looks super easy to use and I would love to sharpen the blades on my new manual grinder. Thanks 😊

[@Krispy_239]

Look forward to Sausage October every year. Keep up the good work.

[@danfitzgerald5682]

Hey Eric! I would absolutely love to win this sharpening gear! I’ve been using my dads grinder for sausage making and I don’t think the plates or blades have ever been sharpened 😂 I am so excited to level up my charcuterie and I’m hearing you loud and clear, sharp equipment not optional.
