1. Take out some hog casings and set in a bowl of warm water.
2. Chop meat (and pork fat, if using) into chunks. (Optional expert step: Mix the salt with just the meat and grind it very coarsely, like with a 10 mm or 12 mm plate, and refrigerate it overnight. If you don't have such a large plate, chop the meat into 1/2 or 3/4 inch pieces and do the same thing. This will create a tighter bind in the finished sausage.)
3. When you are ready to grind everything, Mix the meat, fat, lemon zest, celery seed -- half the black pepper, garlic and basil. Why only half? You’ll want to add the rest right before you do the final mix on the sausage. This keeps the spices larger, altering the sausage’s texture, making eating it more interesting. Chill the meat until it is 37°F or colder by putting it in the freezer for an hour or so.
4. Grind through a medium-coarse plate (6 mm or 7 mm). If the mixture is still below 37°F, immediately grind 1/2 the mixture through the fine plate (4.5 mm). If it's too warm, freeze it all until it's cold enough. You are doing this extra grind to make the texture of the sausage more interesting -- you can skip it if you want.
