yip we did 15kgs by hand BEFORE giving to butcher...and he still charged me same amount...to say I was a tad miffed is understatement.
tip for free...if you pluck breasts and leave skin on them..the salamis will be even better and nowhere near as much pork will need to be added because of the duck/goose fat under skin....
