For The Hunters: Venison Snags

[Angus]

I have refining my sausage making lately and reckon I have it pretty nailed now.

If the deer is good I think simple is better.

Favorite recipe so far.

Mince (3/4 Venison 1/4 Beef not lean).

Garlic to taste.

Thyme

Secret filler... Oats not cheap sausage filler.

Oats seem to really suck and enhance flavor and I have not had any oat made snags split.

Each deer has tasted quite different from the other though so this is a very big factor as well. The one pictured was a young stag but it was out of the rut so no massive testosterone smell when cooking. The young buck Henry shot a while ago tasted awesome but smelt pretty strong while cooking.

Not being a trophy but a food hunter I would opt for a younger Doe if given the chance to select.

Cheers.

Yum! It must be so satisfying sourcing your own food. I imagine they would go well with some smoked honey on top? Love that stuff

Looks like you know what your doing Angus, nothing quite like a good snag.
