Do I have to purchase a separate sausage filler, or can that me done straight from the STX?

The grinder comes with all you need to stuff sausage. The only other things you need are the casings and meat

There is a apparatus for stuffing the meat into the grinder. There are also attachments for stuffing sausage tubes, but we haven't even taken those out of the bag. We've been very happy with the grinder - easy to use and easy to clean.

No just load up untoasted muffins the only thing you needs to buy precooked is the sausage or ham you are going to use

Weston parts are interchangeable with the MTN Geersmith stuffers.http://www.westonsupply.com/Vertical-Sausage-Stuffer-Parts-s/159.htm

Travis is correct. But, you can also order Pretzel mixes. We ordered one from Amazon, used it with the Maker and it was pretty good! It's the Nostalgia Electrics SPK-300 Soft Pretzel Kit. The Maker also works well, just be sure to use a timer if you want soft pretzels!

Ive never received any ratio inserts in all the years of using this product. Im 99% sure they would have to be purchased separately unless this specific seller includes it. I uave always purchased them separately, but once you buy one, they probably will never need to be replaced.

Yes, you can. In fact, the last get-together we had, that's what we cooked. The frozen kind from Costco seem to work best, as they are compact, mostly unbroken, and stay together nicely until you pop those tasty little morsels in your mouth.I have found that this well designed machine works far better at cooking and keeping Brats, Sausage, Dogs, Taquitos, Corn Dogs, and Egg Rolls than any conventional oven can do.I thoroughly recommend! 5 Stars!JGLDFW TX

The filler is clean goosedown. If you have allergies then you may want man made fiberfill.

If you intend to stuff sausage cases, you will need to either get your meat already ground (ground beef, ground pork, ground turkey or ground veal)to use in your recipes or you will need a grinder if you use whole cuts of meat. There are several good grinders available. Lem is a good one. Depending on the qty of meat you will be processing should determine the size, power and rate you will need. Grinders come in several sizes. Shop for best price as these can get expensive.

I mixed mine with existing. I want some of the blue stuff in there because I think the kristal will freeze too easy otherwise

There is a sausage setting. I have done sausages once. Came out perfect like everything else.

I wouldnt recommend it. It would take a very long time. Invest the money and get an actual sausage stuffer to save time and frustration. However, the gun works amazingly for making jerky!

Yes, but I found that the fullness was lost soon after purchasing it. Purchased more filling at K-Mart for around $10.

It would depend on the type of sausage you are making. There are plenty of great books on the subject here on Amazon, my favorite is "Home Production of Quality Meats and Sausages, by Stanley and Adam Marianski. ...also Google "making sausages" and/or "sausage recipes" and you'll come up with a wealth of information.

I have done both at the same time with no flavor transfer at all. If you plan on making jerky just make sure you wash it well before you use it again.

I would assume so. I have not tried any of that as of yet. I have cooked link-sausage and it gets really nice and done. Not quite the same as your question. I wish I could be of more help. I should try some just so I know.

If u cant order one from the manufacturer, then i would fill the tube top with great stuff. It will "foam out" - simply trim off the excess for a water tite seal.
