    Thank You @fishlessman

    I always add 1/4 pound of fat to every pound of BUTT

    4 lbs Pork Shoulder 
    1 Pound Pork Fat
    1/2 cup Port Wine or good s Red Wine
    1/8 cup red wine Vinagar
    1tbs Sugar 
    3 tbs Marjoram 
    1 large head of garlic minced (Add more as desired, this is just about right)
    1 TSP Cure 1 ( optional but I always add it)
    4 TBS Paprika 
    1 TBS Blk Pepper
    1 TSP white pepper
    For a bit more heat- Cayenne to your desire -  there is enough in the Paprika to make this "Mild" with a bit of heat in the background

    For this I cube it then marinate a day or 2 before the grind...add additional 1/2 cup Ice water per 5 pounds to help get your primary bind

    I have to buy a better grinder than using the attachment on my KA mixer, it is just too underpowered. Also need a sausage stuffer. Looking for recommendations.

    @CTMike my first grinder was a 50.00 Harbor Freight, worked great and re gifted it when I bought my LEM Big Bite. My first stuffer was LEM 5 pounder and my only regret was I didn't get the 10 pounder...

    +1 on the LEM gear. I have a LEM Big Bite 8# grinder and a LEM 15# stuffer and am very happy with both. The KA can be a good starter, but has a hard time when you decide to do tonnage.
