pick up the book "Great Sausage Recipes and Meat Curing"by Rytek Kutas. It's a must have and is now sold by Cabella's

10 lbs of ground venison including pork fat. (usually 8 lbs meat 2 lbs fat) more or less to taste. I like more fat
5 tbls salt
1 tsp ground white pepper
1 tbls sage
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tbls ground nutmeg
2 tbls powdered dextrose
`
2 Cups Ice water

mix and stuff into 28-30 mm hog casings, 24-26 lamb casings or into roll and freeze into patties.
If freezing for any length of time it’s best to leave out the sage as it will turn bitter.`


Italian Sausage

4 tbs salt
2 cups ice water

Just buy the sausage kits from Cabela's, everything is in the kit that you will need, they are very tastey. Here is another place to obtain products and sausage kits. http://www.lemproducts.com/
