We would buy a pork shoulder and bone it out to be ground with our venison, anywhere from 80/20 venison/pork to 50/50.
If you use real skins make sure you rince them out thoroughly, that brine they come in is salty!

when making the breakfast sausage leave out the sage if you are going to freeze for an extended period of time.

In my recipe book by the sausage maker it says it will give it a bitter taste. They don't say how long a long time is. I'm thinking over 6 months. I've made it without the sage and it came out just fine. I guess the nutmeg and ginger in the recipe is enough flavor.

I'm partial to this recipe, made with natural casings:
4 pounds venison
4 pounds fat ground pork
1 tablespoon salt
1 bulb garlic peeled & chopped
5-10 hot peppers chopped fine
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
Throw as many peppers as you think you'll need & then toss in a couple extra for good measure.
Enjoy!
