Just recently picked up Morton Salt, home meat curing booklet. It had good info on ham and sausage curing/making. Tried the first recipie of salami, it was for beef but I substituted venision.
It is some good stuff!
They got recipies for summer sausage, balogna, peperoni, and a few other odds and ends. Most call for their special ingredient "Tender Quick". It is a mix of cure and salt. I had to buy it off the internet.

I'm making deer salami right now. Its marinading in the refrigerator and ill bake it tomorrow. This recipe is easy to do and makes great salami. I like it because it makes small batches and taste real good. Here is the recipe. h.h.
Deer Salami 3 lbs. deer burger 2 lbs. lean hamburger 1 lb. hot sausage (Jimmy Dean, Oscar Myers) 6 1/2 T. Morton's Tender Quick Salt 1/2 t. Black Pepper 3 T. Mustard Seed 2 t. Garlic Powder 2 t. Dried Red Pepper Flakes 3 T. Wrights Liquid Smoke Mix all ingredients together and refrigerate for 24 hrs. Remix thoroughly and refrigerate for 24 more hours. Shape into two 3 lb rolls. Bake on a broiler pan or wire rack at 200 degrees for 5 hrs 15 min. Remove from oven. Wrap in paper towels until cooled. Remove paper towels and rewrap in aluminum foil and store in refrigerator or freezer. I use 2 Tablespoons of mustard seed and 1 Tablespoon of fennel seed instead of 3 tablespoons of mustard seed. It gives the sausage more of an Italian taste.

Hey duff when doing this make sure to keep a eye on the internal temperature and water temperature. If the internal temperature comes up to fast and goes over of the 160 degree internal temperature all of the pork fat will go to the outside and the meat will be in the middle.
I like the pork fat better than beef for this mixture. The pork fat seems to help give it a moister and creamer taste than beef fat.
