I got a grinder and stuffer last year before deer season and used it to grind all my burger, but have never used the stuffer section. Wondering how many make their own sausage and if you have any "secret" reciepes? I dont want gram or gramps coming back from the dead because you gave away the family secret, but thought you may have somethin to share.
 
Heres Gregs family reciepe

15lbs ground pork
10lbs ground deer{beef,elk,moose}
6tbs garlic juice
4tbs pepper
5tbs salt
1tsp. dry mustard
2tbs brown sugar
1tsp paprika
1tsp cayanne
3tsp flour
Mix all of this really well together,stuff into casings. Smoke if you like smoke flavour,we usually do have batch smoked half not.

Until we move from Gregs parents place{now ours} this reciepe will be handy.gregs mom wrote it on the wall in sausage making-laundry room wall :lol:
 
We use sheep casings. When making the sausage the casings are kept in water,makes putting the casings on stuffer sooo much easier. The reciepe is mostly a guide,we season then cook a hamburger,taste,then add season to taste.When we made some in June,I left the room and came back to VERY strong garlic smell,greg and daughters BF,went garlic crazy :roll: Another thing we do,when getting the meat cut-up,we have 10 bags of deer made,so we can make fresh stuff later on in year. Freeze,thaw make into sausage,freeze the sausage.

If we have casings left over,,add water a bit of salt,put in margarine container,freeze and use next time we make sausage.
 
What kinda sausage are you thinking about making Southdakotahunter,plenty differnt recipes for lots of differnt type sausage,I like mine dried...............good luck
 
I like brats, ring bologna, polish......any and all. I just thought someone had some good ways to make things. I am gonna buy some casings. I have an old outhouse at my place i have taken the seat off and hung some conduit across. (outhouse not used in years!) Has a concrete floor and gonna try to smoke something in it. My wife thinks im nuts and says she wont eat nothing out of an outhouse, LOL, Gonna try some smoked sausage of some type. I am betting it will be so tasty, she will try it. Like i told her, its a smoke house now. Dont think about what went on in the thing 20 or 30 years ago.
