Mockwerks Pickled Sausage

I have actually made this before, but I always lose the recipe and have to find it again on Homebrewtalk.com.  I thought I would put it down here so I can keep it.

This will be for Mocktoberfest in September.


The Recipe

The brine gets boiled and cooled slightly. Then layer, sausage, onions, jalapenos, garlic (2-layers) in a large gallon size jar. Then pour the slightly cooled brine over the pickling ingredients.

Brine Ingredients
8 cups vinegar
4 cups water
4 tablespoons of pickling spices
4 tablespoons of pickling salt
2 tablespoons of red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons of black peppercorn balls
Pickling Items
1 teaspoon of minced garlic (add in 1/2tsp qty, 2X)
2 Smoked Sausage Links (Sliced about 3/4") (Sausage must say they are pre-cooked)
