How to Make Venison (and Duck) Sausage - The Secret Recipe! - Video Journal #32

[Cajun shooter]

Great video! Michael would you explain to me why you dry the sausage? I thought it would be somewhat dried out from smoking it. Does it make it more like jerky?

Keeping in mind that I'm mostly just a beer fetcher...

Combined with the meat cure cure, drying the sausage extends the shelf life of the meat (much like smoking and much like jerky). Once dried, there's no need to refrigerate and it'll be good for up to a couple of weeks. Of course, we seal the links and freeze to preserve longer and just pull out as much as needed.

We only smoked it overnight so as not to have overly smoked flavor.

We need a taste test between Mesquitecountry and yall's recipee. They seem very similar. I've used Mesquitecountry's since he posted it with great success, but am always open to trying new recipes.



Duck sausage...yall are so juvinile! What's next, your momma jokes?

We actually made some pan sausage using Travis' recipe the following weekend (for the St. Jude's Sporting Clays Shoot). I shot footage of that, too, and may incorporate that into a future video.

Good stuff Michael! I too liked the background music. My Great Grandparents would be proud of us for using the smoke house they built.

WTH Matt?? You were supposed to invite me. You better bring some sausage to Bownanza for me!!

I am still trying to figure out why you trusted Todd with math

You're kinda like one of those late night infomercials "..but wait, there's more!" You just say "..but wait, there's a video for that!"

Gonna have to scale down the recipe and give it a try.

I'm assuming the alternate recipe was for smoked but not dried correct? How'd it compare?

Same recipe for smoked or dried, other than the added cabbage/onion/jalapeño in Jenn's.

I meant the cabbage recipe. Did you try that dried too? How'd that turn out?

Ah. No, we didn't dry that. In fact, that didn't get smoked either. They bagged it up fresh immediately after stuffing.

Gotcha, Did you get to try it?

Awesome stuff! Great video! Now I'm hungry..thanks!

[Michael]

Yes sir! We cooked some sample in the pan before we stuffed it and then cooked a few links back at Camp Stolle later Saturday night! It was outstanding!

[TildenHunter]

Really looks good. Wish I had the time and know how to do this.
