Here is a summer sausage recipe I like.
4 lbs of ground venison
1/2 lb ground pork
1/4 cup Morton's tender quick
2 table spoons liquid smoke
2 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon cracked pepper corns
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
Mix ground venison, ground pork, and tender quick well, then let chill overnight. I put it a plastic bag, do not use a metal mixing bowl.
After chilled, mix in all other ingredients.
Mix it well.
Form it into two loaves, should be cooked on an elevated tray. ( so it can drain )
Cook on lowest rack in oven, for 4 hours at 225 degrees.
I made 16 lbs last Saturday. This stuff makes a good sandwich meat, and is great on crackers, with cheese and mustard...![]()
