How to make it
- Allow me to dazzle you with rocket science.
- 1. The meat should be cool but not COLD. Everything else at room temp.
- 2. Break up the meat, two forks work well for this.
- 3. In a large mixing bowl mix the meat and all other ingredients and knead well with your hands. Latex gloves may be a good idea. A friend does this with the dough hook attachment on his mixer.
- Olla, you have chorizo. You can keep this for at least 2 weeks in your fridge or season it for a few days in the fridge and then freeze it in small packages for later use. If you’re going to smoke it just stuff it into casings and do that. Viva la Mexico.

the peppers are raw, here, ElGourmand, is that right? Not preserved at all or cooked?

Made this this weekend with venison, cus you said I could. ;) I put in some of our own peppers that we call "salsa blend" they are hybrids and are somehow like a jalapeno/hot banana/serrano mix of flavor. :) I also added a few jalapenos. ...more
