    Mixing??

    Thanks Ritz, I have seen a few of your posts on here and I can tell you're quite knowledgable about the topic. I have tried green tripe and things like that but they're not quite there yet. I buy premixed raw patties (no veg) and I mix in the canned wet. I know it's not ideal but I just...
