How do you make homemade low carb sausages?

[StuntNun]

The only low carb sausages I can buy locally are the M&S 95% ones which are nice but a bit pricey, especially as the nearest M&S is 10 miles away. My BIL bought us a mincer with sausage-maker attachment so I thought I would try making my own.

I have bought some hog casings and a gluten-free seasoning pack which has potato instead of breadcrumbs but I'm wondering what meat would be best to make low carb - high fat sausages. I think a combination of pork belly and pork shoulder would work but I'm not sure of the proportions. Has anyone tried making their own low carb sausages.

Belly and shoulder are good. I have used shoulder and homemade bacon before. There's no need to add potato or starch, just let the mix rest in the fridge for half an hour.
Good luck :)

Thank you. Isn't it a bit dry if you use 100% meat? I was thinking about 95 or 97.5% meat.

Hold the phone... homemade bacon?! How do you slice it thin enough?

No, they are quite juicy. You can add a bit of wine or an egg, if you like.
You need a very sharp knife to cut the bacon thin but it will not be wafer thin.

Homemade sausages were made today and were lovely. I wasn't sure whether to mince the fat on the pork shoulder or not so I left it out and made it into pork scratchings instead.
