buy a stuffer. and twist not tie the links

easier and faster and those twists in the gut are better tgan any knot after a little smoke

Mexican grocery stores will usually give you free fat to add to deer meat.

drink lots of beer and enjoy

If you are just adding fat, what are your %s? I have always used pork butt but am curious about it.

If you live near San Antonio, I would be more than happy to show you what I do.

I've been processing my own deer for 6 years now and it's the only way to go. If I am just making ground venison for things like tacos and spaghetti I don't add any fat to the meat, but if I'm making different types of sausage I do a 60/40 mix of venison to pork or beef.

There's some pretty good advice on here already. We've been doing our own for a few years already. Since your just starting out you may want to look at this site.

Have no issues at all with using grinder to stuff, have the 1 1/2 hp. If your close you can stop at Fischers in Muenster, tell them how much meat and pork talon you have combined and they can give you what seasoning, tubes etc and a few tips.
