Ingredients
Instructions
Combine The Ground Meat Mixture With The Dried Savory
Grind the pork butt, beef, fatback, onions, and garlic together through a meat grinder on a medium-fine setting. In a large bowl, combine the ground meat mixture with the dried savory, cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, barberry, coriander, and salt. Mix thoroughly with your hands until all the spices are evenly distributed. For a juicier sausage, you can add a small amount of broth to the mixture.
Prepare The Sausage Casings By Rinsing Them Thoroughly
Prepare the sausage casings by rinsing them thoroughly and soaking them in warm water for 10-15 minutes. Stuff the meat mixture into the casings, ensuring there are no air bubbles. Twist and tie the casings at approximately 8-inch intervals to form individual sausages. The sausages can be shaped into traditional horseshoes or coils.
Heat Or Pan-Fry Them In A Skillet
To cook, either grill the Kupati over medium heat or pan-fry them in a skillet until they are browned and cooked through. Serve hot with sliced onions, fresh pomegranate seeds, and your favorite Georgian sauces.
