Sorry that I did not get to post this last night, I was not feeling very well when I got home This is a hand written recipe and I will try to clean it up as much as possible. I found this when I was going through my 93 year old aunt's things after she passed away. Also, I remember only making linguica only during very cold months of the year and my uncle had his own smoke shed. Please also note that this recipe has been americanized to use products available here. Start with 150 lbs of pork (no this is not a typo) Cut the meat into small 1/2 inch pieces, leaving some fat. Place meat in a large plastic tub and marinade with the following sauce. 4 gallons of red wine Juice of 12 lemons 2 lbs of garlic chopped 1 large can of paprika 1 lb of Lawrey's season salt 1 small can of black pepper 6 oz pure hot sauce (optional) Mix the meat and sauce well and let sit in a cold place for 5 days(refrigerator), making sure to mix it everyday for 15 min. Fill the casings and take to a butch shop to smoke. The smoking process must be more heat than smoke. Casings can be bought if you are not killing a pig, but will still need to be cleaned in and out in water and scrubbed with lemons. If you are using casings from the pigs, this process is to be done 4 times. In a message dated 11/1/2008 12:12:11 P.M. Pacific Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
