Does anyone have a good recipe for making venison breakfast sausage ?
I've got Italian sausage mastered, and thought I might try breakfast sausage this year. Hope to kill 3-4 animals for the freezer.

You can use your Italian sausage recipe, just add a little more pork fat to the mix & substitute cajun spices in place of the Italian spices.

Steiny, what is your italian sausage rec? I have made some from Hi mountain mixes, not bad but a bit too salty. Plus I didn't put any pork in so a little dry too. A butcher from Hudson Lake makes some good brats and polish sausage.

duff - I just use an italian sausage recipe I found on the internet. We buy all the individual spices at the grocery -vs- a pre-mixed product. The recipe is out in the barn, so I can't give you exact quantities, but basically, its something like the following:
Buy enough pork shoulder to mix about 1/3 pork, 2/3 deer, then chunk the deer and pork up small enough to go through your grinder and mix it all together in a big tub.
Spices consist of: Fennel seed Garlic Red pepper Coarse salt Ginger
Mix the proper quantities of such with the meat in the tub, along with a couple cups of Merlot red wine, and a couple cups of crushed ice. Go ahead and drink the rest of the wine and give the meat and spices a little time to "work". Then run the whole works through your grinder. Stuff it in casings if you like, or simply package it in bulk.
Good stuff ! We did a bunch of it last fall, and everybody likes it.
