Just broke 500 pounds of sausage in a single week for the first time

My shop in Tacoma usually does about 300 pounds, but a big order for a local festival pushed us way past that. Some guys say pushing volume like that hurts quality, but I think our mix held up fine. What's your take on high-output weeks versus sticking to a slower, steadier pace?

Big deal. It's just sausage, not a space launch.

Honestly used to worry that big weeks meant cutting corners. Then we had a huge wedding order last summer that forced us to prep everything in stages. The sausage actually tasted better because the meat stayed colder with our new setup. Now I see a rush as a chance to prove the process is solid. Do you find your equipment handles the bigger loads okay?

You're right, a good system can handle pressure.
