You will save yourself a lot of grief by buying prepackaged seasonings and cures for your venison summer sausage. There are a bunch of guys here that make it who can make recommendations on which brand to use. I am eating some now( summer sausage w/ garlic) that a friend made and it is outstanding, so good in fact that I am having him make some for me from meat from my bison I took in Oct. No sense playing around and taking a chance on ruining and wasting good meat when someone else has done the figuring for you. He used a big electric smoker btw.
