tried a new recipe that turned out great for patties..going to make some breakfast sandwiches with eggs from the backyard tomorrow.
recipe was.
2.5 lbs elk
.5 ish lbs of pork fat
640 grams of cut up bacon ends
30 grams of kosher salt
4 cloves of garlic minced
4 tbs of pure maple syrup
2 tsp of red pepper flakes
4 tsp ground sage
2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 tsp majoram
cube up elk, fat, and bacon.
mix in all spices/garlic/syrup and let sit for around 5-15 hours in the fridge.
grind and form into patties, or if you want to stuff into links mix in a kitchen aid on slow for a few minutes until tacky.
i just formed into patties that would work for breakfast sandwiches.
partially freeze patties before vac packing them to help them keep shape
did a few testers and they were great,
