Found a recipe on line and thought I would give it a shot, made almost 3 pounds will give it a taste test in the morning. Flight
I made homemade venison sausage once, and cooked it the same day...it was brutal. Threw the rest in the freezer. Got it out several weeks later, defrosted it, and ate it...delicious! You might want to let it age for awhile before trying it.

I also used what I had for pork fat, that was bacon and they say bacon makes everything better, we shall see. Flight
Way to salty..... I’m not a big salt guy, so my wife is going to fry it up in some potatoes. She says that will draw out the salt, she is making it into a hash with eggs peppers onions sausage and potatoes. Flight
Just a tip. For ALL future sausage makers out there, Scale your mix down to a 2oz portion before seasoning. Season the ground meat per the recipe. Fry a glob and taste it. BEFORE you make 20lbs of wretchedly salty sausage. Been there done that. Most commercial mixes have far too much salt in them for me. The LEM Italian and breakfast sausages are prime examp!we of too too salty.
Most all recipes could have the salt reduced by 50-60% IMO. I see some fat is added cause Id think it would be DRY without.
