I got this recipe off the net and modified it a bit to fit my taste:

3 lbs ground venison
1 lb ground beef or pork
4 Tbs Morton Tender Quick (curing salt)
2 Tbs mustard seed
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp onion powder or onion salt
2 tsp garlic powder
1 Tbs whole peppercorns
2 cups water

Mix all ingredients and refrigerate for at least 24 hours.

Stuff into sausage casings and bake in 180 - 200 degree oven until internal temp is 160 degrees. (4 1/2 to 5 hours)

Looks something like this:

About 8 or 9 lbs after curing for 24 hours.


The 70's model Hamilton Beach grinder/stuffer.


Stuffed and starting to cook


Fresh from the oven


Cooled and ready to eat

I didnt know ya could make the stuff in the oven, I thought it had to be slow cured with a smoker or something.
I just learned something :biggrin:

The first time I made it (last year) I was going to do it in the smoker, but the weather was too lousy so I used the oven. I still haven't done any in the smoker, the oven is just too convenient.

That's the little bit that wouldn't fit in the casings and I didn't want to throw it away.

We do not even use casings...we twist em tight in palstic wrap then un - wrap them to bake....... The spices we use do most of the curing......They only cook for an hour or so at 250deg. We use a pre mix from LEM Products but I will be trying this one for sure.
