Making smoked venison sausage; how to make hill country sausage

In this video we make our Opa's smoked venison sausage. This recipe has been handed down for over 150 years. If you haven't had it you need to try some!

The fresh stuff is boiled for 10 minutes and eaten with sauerkraut....the dried is eaten like jerky or "Slim Jims".

Brings back memories when we butchered Hogs and made sausage and head sausage down in La Grange, TX.

HAHA, love your temporary smoker. Nice touch with the tool box too. I find that grinding the meat first, mixing the seasoning with a little water and then mixing with the meat works very well. I like the plastic boat, my buddy has a Logic.
