- 2 1/2 pounds pork butt cut into 1" cubes
- 1 pound pork liver rinsed in cool water
- 2 quarts water
- 1 cup onions chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/2 cup green bell peppers chopped
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 4 1/4 teaspoons salt
- 2 1/2 teaspoons cayenne
- 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup chopped parsley finely-
- 1 cup green onions chopped, tops, green part only
- 6 cups medium-grain rice cooked

- In a large sauce pan, combine the pork butt, pork liver, water, onions, garlic, bell peppers, celery, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Bring the liquid up to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 1 1/12 hours, or until the pork and liver are tender. Remove from the heat and drain, reserving 1 1/2 cups of the broth.
- Using a meat grinder with a 1/4-inch die, grind the pork mixture. 1/2 cup of the parsley, and 1/2 cup of the green onions, together. Turn the mixture into a mixing bowl. Stir in the rice, remaining salt, cayenne, black pepper, parsley, and green onions. Add the broth, 1/2 cup at a time, and mix thoroughly. Either using a feeding tube or a funnel, stuff the sausage into the casings and make 3-inch links.
- Bring 1 gallon of salted water up to a boil. Poach the sausage for about 5 minutes, or until the sausage is firm to the touch and plump. Remove from the water and allow to cool.
