anyone no a good one? im just looking for pointers on casing, spices that you can mix in with deer meat and make a good braut..anyone?
2.) Swamp Fox - 06/09/2013
You could try to look up one of the [I]Bowcountry Journal [/I] issues...TxHunter did three pieces on making sausage, I believe. I think the last issue might be the one with the recipe details you want, but I don't remember. It's also possible that the article he did that would be most helpful to you didn't get published. If that's the case, I could probably dig it up and post it if TxHunter doesn't pop his head up here soon.

I see I can find the first two articles easily. I think there was a third, though, and I might have to dig for it since it's not in the same file. That might mean that the third article was never published.
Pretty sure I have your email address, so I will send what I find as PDF attachments.

I sentyou two articles. I don't think there was a third. It must have been the second article that never got published.

I use a HiCountry kit...it's pretty handy as you get the spice packets, casings, any cure needed and good clear instructions in one box. Most are set up to make 30-35 lbs of product with each kit...but in the directions they tell you exactly how much to use if you only want to make in 5 lb increments. It keeps it all quite simple as compared to mixing and matching (which I've done also).
Here is a link to check it out: [url]http://www.hicountry.com/[/url]
What ever you do, make plenty as it really disappears. (We discovered that our little 15 year old the baby sitter, can really put a dent in the cajun sausage we made with antelope - she couldn't be 90 lbs soaking wet...but she sure eats!)

I never thought about that, he prolly walks the ditches on the interstate every day after he comes off a roof.

CrookedEye, there is a secret ingredient that most everyone forgets when making sausage.
12.) Wild Bob - 11/21/2013
OK, I'll bite...what's the secret ingredient? (probably regret this...)
13.) bluecat - 11/21/2013

15.) Wild Bob - 11/21/2013
Ah...All you need is love, and grinder, and casings, and spices, and hog rings...

I read a news article up here recently discussing an urban deer hunt which quoted a hunter as saying you could get [B]150 pounds of meat from one deer[/B].
I thought to myself, "Sign me up!"

I agree 35 lbs is a large amount, but as I mentioned, the instructions give you a break down chart for 5 lb increments...I just made some sweet Italian sausage from one of their kits last week and I think it called for 2 tablespoons of spice per each 5 lbs. Or, if you made the whole 35 lbs you would just use the whole spice packet which looked to be about a two cups.
Anyway, if you're interested just go to their website and you can see it all. If you go to the web site and go to the drop down menu "From the Kitchen" then click on "Lost your spice instructions"...scroll down thru the directions and you'll see a chart that breaks it all down.
Like I said, the only reason I like it is beacause their products taste great, and everything you need is in that one kit...it's simple and it's all there, no chasing down this or that.
We must be sausage pigs tho...because I always make up the whole 30 lbs. +/-....

Well, elk and moose are both species of deer, so you might want to check out the fine print first.

No elk or moose here...Though you can get Moosehead if you know where to go and are willing to pay for it...But the inflatable reindeer are starting to come out now...Perfect if you're looking for a light winter snack....

Once you've mastered that, you can move on to Moose Drool. Good stuff.

Or when Rudolph is looking for a "date".

I'm sure Rudolph would like to get some Moosehead if he could date outside his sub-species...

Come on up this way, and we'll go to the Big Sky Brewery, where they make it. Hahahahah.
MD is a little heavy for my taste, but I like their Trout Slayer wheat ale. Good stuff.

If TxHunter ever pokes his head up around here again, maybe he can tell me/us if there's something else I should go looking for.
I thought his articles were very informative.
Wild Bob, do you have a recommendation on a good kit or spice package for summer sausage for deer (whitetail, LOL)? Any reason you wouldn't use one of HC's? I see their kits for western animals and beef but nothing for venison (whitetail deer venison, :-)).

[ATTACH=CONFIG]297[/ATTACH]Nope, their kits work great on whitetails. Most of what I make, I make out of whitetails (got whitetails here along the Milk River). I made some breakfast sausage out of this guy I took a few weeks ago.
