Maybe I should give that a try, and not be so lazy:)

  I've made chorizo at home. It's one of my favorites.  I sometimes make a pound of sausage at a time. Start with thawed ground lamb/old ram/old ewe, mix in the spices, let sit over night (or two) in the refrigerator and it's ready. I like different kinds of sausages for different things and don't really want to make 30 lbs of one kind.
