Damn that’s a nice red snapper. Is that you?
Whole fish except for the guts and most of the scales scraped off.

There is nothing stopping the local butchers from making exactly what I make, but I've not had it. Butchers are a bit of a culinary silo. Like all good cooking the devil is in the details and I could probably give 10 different butchers the same recipe and get 10 different things back. Hence my verbose recipe that gives all the technique and thought. But to answer your question if you're satisfied with your butcher's brats and lack whatever autism makes someone focus on incrementally improving standard comfort fare, no its not worth getting into sausage just for brats. You at least need to make Italian sausage too.

I'll bet your neighbor/neighbors love you. The cooking smells alone must be incredible.Were I you and had enough to share, I'd invite the close by neighbors over for a feast. You supply your awesome meats and they could bring everything else from baked beans to cake to beverages. A Fall Feast to remember! Talk about a great community gathering other than clearing snow or trees.
hoosier, I don't recall you boasting about any of your culinary skills. PB & J sandwiches don't count either.
I don't have the time I used to have to spend on cooking. In my world, anything that takes more than 30 minutes to prepare (maybe an hour on a weekend) is just an invitation to mutiny. On the rare occasion when I do get to do something serious, the last thing in the world I want to do is take a photo of it or talk about it.
Cmon Hoosier. Get with the program. Start using exchange-o-gram.
Whenever I see that thing referenced I think of that bizarre scene from Blazing Saddles: "Candygram for Mongo!"

^^^. Sausage is over baked.
Have grilled pork chops been mentioned?
That sounds fucking great. I am into combining shit so it works.
When I grill the thick pork chops I start with med-high heat until they look fully cooked outside. But they are not and once the color is right I sealed them stacked all together is one large piece of foil. I leave lots of air space inside. From there they stay on the grill low heat while I get the sides ready in the house. This makes it so that they are juicy all the way thru not just the middle. Plus I know it reaches the heat level needed to be safe.
I’m going to use your stuffed idea with this method. Thinking mushroom, red peppers, and Muenster.
When done you can bite all the way through them like nada.
I just Patlerized some brats/sausage (Italian style to be used with pasta). I also did some brats that same way about two weeks ago. There is some merit to it. The flavor and the texture are different. More flavor for sure.
