HOMEMADE DOG FOOD WITH BEEF
My Samoyed, as he grew out of puppyhood, refused to eat kibble (and even canned food) and would go days without eating or eating very little until he lost weight. Frustrated, I did some research and started giving him this homemade dog food twice a day. He is back to a normal weight, and is very happy! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Serve without bones; give separately as a treat as desired and use caution.

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
- Place 6 cups water and brown rice into a stockpot. Add browned beef, bones, and rosemary; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low or low and let simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, until rice is mushy, about 45 minutes. Add water if necessary to keep mixture a little thicker than a porridge-like consistency.
- Meanwhile, place carrots, spinach, and eggs with their shells into an electric blender. Blend until completely pureed and no eggshells are intact.
- Mix pumpkin and blended egg mixture in a bowl until combined. Remove meat mixture from heat and pour egg mixture into the pot to cook the eggs in hot contents, about 5 minutes. Let cool thoroughly before feeding to your dog, about 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Add hot dogs to cold salted water and bring them up to a boil. Turn them off and keep them warm in the hot water. Serve warm.
- For an added kick of flavor try splitting the boiled dogs almost all the way in half. Open them up and add to a hot pan which a little olive oil has been added. Cook over medium heat until brown on both sides.

Steps:
- Prepare the casings (see instructions below).
- In a blender or food processor, make a puree of the onion, garlic, coriander, marjoram, mace, mustard seed, and paprika.
- Add the pepper, egg white, sugar, salt, and milk and mix thoroughly.
- Grind the pork, beef, and fat cubes through the fine blade separately.
- Mix together and grind again.
- Mix the seasonings into the meat mixture with your hands.
- This tends to be a sticky procedure, so wet your hands with cold water first.
- Chill the mixture for half an hour then put the mixture thorough the fine blade of the grinder once more.
- Stuff the casings and twist them off into six-inch links.
- Parboil the links (without separating them) in gently simmering water for 20 minutes.
- Place the franks in a bowl of ice water and chill thoroughly.
- Remove, pat dry, and refrigerate.
- Because they are precooked, they can be refrigerated for up to a week or they can be frozen.
- Preparing the Casing.
- Snip off about four feet of casing.
- (Better too much than too little because any extra can be repacked in salt and used later.) Rinse the casing under cool running water to remove any salt clinging to it.
- Place it in a bowl of cool water and let it soak for about half an hour.
- While you're waiting for the casing to soak, you can begin preparing the meat as detailed above.
- After soaking, rinse the casing under cool running water.
- Slip one end of the casing over the faucet nozzle.
- Hold the casing firmly on the nozzle, and then turn on the cold water, gently at first, and then more forcefully.
- This procedure will flush out any salt in the casing and pinpoint any breaks.
- Should you find a break, simply snip out a small section of the casing.
- Place the casing in a bowl of water and add a splash of white vinegar.
- A tablespoon of vinegar per cup of water is sufficient.
- The vinegar softens the casing a bit more and makes it more transparent, which in turn makes your sausage more pleasing to the eye.
- Leave the casing in the water/vinegar solution until you are ready to use it.
- Rinse it well and drain before stuffing.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use a combination of ground chuck and ground sirloin.
- Add some minced onion, garlic, and bell pepper to the meat mixture for extra flavor.
- Season the meat mixture generously with salt, pepper, and your favorite spices.
- Be sure to chill the meat mixture for at least 30 minutes before stuffing it into the casings.
- If you don't have a hot dog stuffer, you can use a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip.
- Smoke the hot dogs over indirect heat for 1-2 hours, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Grill or pan-fry the hot dogs until they are cooked through and browned.
- Serve the hot dogs on buns with your favorite toppings, such as ketchup, mustard, relish, and sauerkraut.
Conclusion:
