1st year trying it, our internet recipe deer brats, were too dry, not good last year.
Going with the PRO's this year
I bought the 50# size of each ( hot sticks, Hawaiian sticks, maple sausage, Brat, Midwest Brat)
Recipe on containers is in 10# batches
Report on your desk as it becomes available
May need Instacure #1 or concentrated soy protein to finish recipe

Looks like 20% beef trimmings (fat) or pork butts depending on what your making

I usually add about 1/3 of ground pork to ground venison for whitetail.

Just make sure you trim the filling so there is no native fat left on it. It will make a nasty gamey taste on the palate. Trust me.

Talked to an old dude my age yesterday about making fresh deer sausage and adding pork.
He said he tried it and the stuff spoiled.
After more questioning I found out why.
He had used cut up pork from the store not vacuum packed pork from a plant.
I explained to him the machinery/processing equipment in the store was contaminated.
All it takes is a wee bit of contamination to ruin everything and I have seen it myself.
Fresh chops going south in two days in the ice cold refrigerator.

I use whole pork butts vacuum packed from a plant. Beef trimmings are another thing... Getting hard to find around here. Packing houses trim most of it off anymore and stores don't get it. I asked a butcher and he said its special order and expensive.
