THE ORIGINAL SLIM JIM

Categories     appetizer

Time P1DT3h45m

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lamb intestine casing (4 feet long)
2 1/2 pounds top round chuck, cubed
1 pound beef fat, cubed
3 tablespoons paprika
2 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground fennel seeds
1 teaspoon No. 1 curing salt
4 tablespoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons sugar
1 clove garlic, peeled and smashed
1/3 cup lactic-acid starter culture

Steps:

  • Rinse salt off the sausage casing. Soak in ice water for at least 1 hour.
  • Combine meat and fat. Run the mixture through a meat grinder into a large bowl, using the finest setting. Add all ingredients, along with one cup of ice water. Knead vigorously until mixture is the consistency of bread dough (about 8 minutes).
  • Rinse casing one last time. Choose the narrowest gauge tube of your sausage press. Splash the tube with ice water, then pull the casing over it. Transfer the mixture, about two fistfuls at a time, to the sausage press and then pump the meat into the casing, splashing more water on the tubing as needed to stop the casing from tearing.
  • Preheat an electric smoker to 100 degrees. Hang sausage in the smoker for 22 hours. Temperature should never dip below 90 degrees or go above 110 degrees. After 22 hours, raise the temperature to 150 degrees and cook until the internal temperature reaches 150 to 155 degrees (about 30 minutes).
  • Remove from smoker and let cool at about 50 degrees in a dry place for 4 hours. Cut sausage into 4-inch lengths.

BIG BOY'S TARTAR SAUCE CLONE / COPYCAT



Big Boy's Tartar Sauce Clone / Copycat image

There is a distinct difference in the sauce used to make Big Boy's Slim Jim sandwich.. the Elias Brother's chain (in the midwest) uses tartar sauce, and Bob's Big Boys out west use a type of 1000-Island.. since moving from Michigan to Florida, I had to figure out how to duplicate that awesome sandwich, and I did it. The key is this tartar sauce, which is kind of silly, because how many ways can you make tartar sauce, lol.. Well one day when I was back in Michigan for a visit, I bought a jar of their famous tartar to bring home with me, and made a simple clone from the ingredients listed on the jar. This is perfect. Now I can have Slim Jims whenever.. Oh! Today was whenever - LOL!!

Time 4m

Yield 1 cup, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon dill pickle relish
1 tablespoon pickle juice

Steps:

  • Combine all, allow flavors to blend several hours.
  • Note: To make the wonderful Slim Jim sandwich (basically a ham/swiss, but the technique is kind of important, as is the combination of sauce and ingredients) see recipe #246365. Big Boy grills their sandwiches to toast the buns. . I grill them on the George Foreman thing.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your sandwich will taste. This is especially true for the bread, which should be soft and fluffy. If you can, try to use freshly baked bread from a local bakery.
  • Don't skimp on the butter: Butter is what makes a grilled cheese sandwich so gooey and delicious. Don't be afraid to use a generous amount of butter on both sides of the bread.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is the star of the show in a grilled cheese sandwich, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. Some good options include cheddar, mozzarella, and Swiss cheese.
  • Add your favorite toppings: You can add all sorts of toppings to your grilled cheese sandwich to make it even more delicious. Some popular options include bacon, ham, sliced tomatoes, and avocado.
  • Cook your sandwich on low heat: This will help to prevent the bread from burning and the cheese from overcooking.

Conclusion:

The Slim Jim sandwich is a delicious and easy-to-make sandwich that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sandwich that is sure to satisfy your cravings. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give the Slim Jim sandwich a try. You won't be disappointed!
