Venison Summer Sausage

[Animal Chris]

“Venison Summer Sausage”

2 lbs. Ground Venison
¼ tsp. Salt
¼ tsp. Ground Black Pepper – Fine
½ tsp. Garlic Powder
2 Tbsp. Morton’s Tender Quick
1 Tbsp. Whole Mustard Seed
1 Tbsp. Liquid Smoke
1 Cup Water
Coarse Ground Black Pepper
Aluminum Foil

Mix all ingredients well and shape into 1 lb. logs. Take each log and roll through the coarse ground black pepper. Wrap logs in foil. Put in refrigerator and chill for 24 hours. After 24 hours, remove foil and bake in oven for 1 to 1½ hours at 350°. Remove from oven and let cool. After it cools, it is best to let the logs set in the refrigerator overnight allowing the flavor of the seasonings to set in. Keep in refrigerator when you are not eating it. Can also be frozen.

NOTE: Morton’s Tender Quick is the main ingredient. It is a meat cure for wild game, so if you can’t find it, get your grocer to order it for you.
