With hunting season upon us anybody interested in starting a homemade sausage thread? I've been doing it for a couple years now and really enjoy feedback from others.
Or should I take this to the Outdoor Board?

I think it's good here. I only make sausage with venison I kill, but I'm sure there are those that make sausage out ingredients other than wild game.

I make my own from boneless pork butts. I grind it up and season it with Penzeys breakfast sausage seasoning, as well as their italian sausage seasoning. Makes great breakfast sausage and italian for spaghetti or pizzas.

I love making sausage. We usually make 300 lbs at a time after we klll a few deer but I haven't done that in a year or so. I just don't have the time.

We make it with deer and pork. I usually use a 50/50 ratio. I get the Rebel smoked sausage seasoning out of Jackson Ms . It's good stuff . Once stuffed I smoke it around 200 degrees over hickory until the color is right. Mighty good stuff

Ro use the same seasoning blend and it is very good. I do 60/40 pork butt to deer though. I did 50/50 once and it was just to dry. I don't have a smoker that I can keep the temp below 200 for an extended time so I just smoke at 225 for about an hour and half/color is good and maybe the high temp had something to with it being dry.

I built a smoker and enjoy the smoked sausage as well as making my on bacon.
A far as sausage, der have been scarce for me so I too use pork butts. I've also used wild pig mixed with butts, that was good. Chicken and sundried tomatoes is one of my wife favorites. There is always some meat left over from the stuffing and we make chicken burgers with that. Some good stuff!

I've got a few recipes I've used over the years with venison for breakfast and also turkey breakfast.

I'm gonna use my AmazeN smoke tube this year to do a bunch of smoked sausage with whatever deer I kill.

To the person that said they don't have time, I agree. It's a the better part of a day just getting it all encased. But I'd rather never let my deer meat out of my sight. Not that I don't trust processors, I just want to make sure I'm eating the deer I killed.

Has anyone ever made smoked sausage on a Kamado grill?

I make small 3ld batches all the time using pheasant I've killed, deer, elk and my latest Aligator. All about 50/50 w pork . I smoke cook them to 160 degrees on a BIg Green Egg then use the food saver to shrink wrap for later. Great tailgate food. The most important part is the amount of salt which once I got that down it never changes from one kind to the other. I like to add thing like green onion, green chili. Get a stuffer it's worth the $100.
Keep thing really cold and take your time. It takes me three days to make a batch.

I smoke cook them to 160 degrees. 275-300 with various woods . I just want a little smoked taste. I regrill these slice and serve with sauce.
