So I know there are quite a few threads on here about making breakfast sausage and I googled it some too but cant seem to find any recepies that dont call for pre mixed seasoning packets or for brown sugar. I want to season it myself without just using a pre mixed packet and the little lady does not like meat to have a sweet taste to it. Just her preference but burst my bubble the first time she said it haha. No maple, brown sugar, etc. Meat having a sweet taste to it just makes her gag. Of course I want to make something everyone will eat, thats why I want to leave out the sweet stuff. All I am asking is for some rough amounts of whatever seasonings one would normally use for breakfast sausage. She likes the stuff we had made at the butcher that is country style. Anyone willing to share? Just what types of seasonings and rough amounts and I want to play from there.

Well, I did a quick Google search "breakfast sausage recipes for venison" and came up with these recipes on just the first page, here are links to a few.

I would and some pork fat to the mix

I was in a little hole in the wall antique store and stumbled across a 1938 book on commercial sausage production about a month ago and have been playing around with the recipes to get them to home use amounts (book is set up for 100 pound batches). I weighed what meat I had and adjusted the ingredients. The book called for 15 pounds of fresh ham fat, 85 pounds of extra lean pork trimmings and for seasonings 2 pounds of salt, 7 ounces of dextrose, 2 ounces of nutmeg, 1.5 ounces of Jamaica ginger or prepared bitters, 1.5 ounces of rubbed sage and 6 ounces of white pepper. I used venison in place of the trimmings and pork fat for the fresh ham fat (butcher shop near me has bags of pork fat most of the time). Can't find my notes on how much of everything I used but it's easy to figure. Turned out great. There are 5 more recipes that I haven't tried yet but the one that has ground red pepper will likely be next. I'll scan the page with all 6 recipes and post it as an attachment as soon as I get a chance.

:tup: Thanks

I attached the scan to my original post (and had a heck of a time getting it to post anywhere). It's only 5, not 6. Been out of school too long I guess...

Tagged, I got to make some breakfast sausage as well. :drool:

Morton Tender Quick, Black Pepper, and steeped water that is infused with a bunch of crushed garlic is all that is required to make an excellent savory sausage. Then smoke the meat in a smoker or if you prefer, add the appropriate amount of Liquid Smoke if you prefer. You want the garlic flavor, but do not want the garlic solids in the sausage as this will cause bitterness.
