re: Deer Processing Questions - update pg2

You don't need a grinder but it would be nice.

I like to have my meats close to the same grinding size when it comes to mixing them together. Meaning I don't want one meat course and one fine if that makes any sense.

and mixing depends on what you like...most people do a 50/50 mix.

You can mix in a bowl and add the spices you want. Depending on the types of sausage you want to make you may have to buy the attachment for your grinder that will put the sausage in a casing.
