Looking for a recipe, going to make my first batch of deer sausage with probably a 60-40 deer/pork mix. Thanks in advance!

Zack's Spice Company in Deer Park has the best seasoning i have found/used for smoked sausage. Your deer/pork mix should be ok as long as the pork has a good amount of fat.

OK, here's a couple that are pretty good. This is based on 1 LB of meat, scale up from there or write back; my spreadsheet auto-scales the measurements. The Tablespoon/Teaspoon are approximate measures. Sorry for the screenshots, this is the only way to preserve the format

Hot and Spicy

Not so spicy hot but more full flavored.

It has been about 45 years since we first made sausage. This was our easy way is to look up recipes that you like. Find a few recipes that look like they have the "basic" spice ingredients that you prefer. Then mix up a small batch of EACH of the spice mixes you picked. Grind up a pork roast and divide the meat in to small amounts and try each batch of spices. This gives you the opportunity to test both the spice mix, and the amount of spice used per pound.

Keep a notes on each mix as to ingredients, amounts and the amount of spice mix used per pound.

Good stuff, do you add water to the above specs? If so, how much?
Does this apply for grilling fresh sausages as well?

Great replies. I'm probably try and make some smoked as well.
