Sausage Recipe

[Chuck White]

Just got my deer cut up and most of it in the freezer today!

I have 7½ pounds of grind-meat and I'd like to add pork to it and make sausage!

Question is, I'd like to end up with "Hot Italian" sausage for patties!

Anyone have a recipe that would end up tasty and a little on the spicy side that they're willing to share?

I just did a search for " Hot Italian Sausage recipe Venison" on google and got lots of response including this one.

  Sounds good but I can't help with the recipe. I use a mild mix I get from a local sporting goods store. I think it is Hi Mountain brand. I think a box has 2 packs that make 12 lbs each for about $5/box. I buy cheap pork sausage and mix about 4:1 deer meat with pork sausage and we like it. I make meatballs with an ice cream scoop, we usually put 4 in a vacuum bag then squeeze them down into patties inside the bag then vacuum and seal them. I am sure you can find a good Italian recipe. Let us know how it turns out.

Looks like a bunch of good recipes!

Gives me a few ideas!

WV: Sounds like a good one that you use too!

Thanks for the response!

Simplest way is adding some Indian red chilly powder. Available in a not too spicy Kashmiri chilly powder and a more potent Andhra chilly powder
The alternative is to see if you can get Bird's Eye chilly. Tiny , but very hot especially the unripe ones. I add them during the second mincing or later if I am emulsifying.

Sorry I'm late responding!  :embarassed:

I went to a local "deer processing shop" and got enough mix to do what meat I had.

I stopped at the grocery store and picked up a 6 lb pork roast to cut up and mix up with the venison.

Turned out pretty good, a little too spicy for my FIL, but he said it was tasty!
