Didn't get any pics of the process, and it was too dark by the time we got em all hung up in the garage, but will post a few more of the finished product tomorrow.

I miss smoked salmon. Cut it really thin, get it dry enough it's almost like jerky...... mmmmmmmmmm!
So does mixing in some pork take away some of the gamey flavor? Last deer I shot I had processed by a butcher and it was so strong I almost couldn't eat it.
most deer are grain or corn fed around here, so they have very little 'gamy' taste to begin with, but no, not really. The pork helps to add some moisture into other very lean meat. pure deer or goose sausage tends to be very firm and dry. Check your hunting locations if you are experiencing overly gamy meat, the only place that is an issue around here is in the SE where they are in a pine forest and eating pine needles/bark.

Where did you get that pulley set up for your grinder. Mine spins way to fast, need to slow it down.Originally Posted by Sniper-T
after hunting on Sunday, my neighbour and I made up some sausages...
Grinding:
In total we ground up 60 pounds of meat, 40% pork, 40% goose, and 20% deer:
Portioned it out into 10 pound lots for batching sausage:
My neighbour mixing in the seasoning/cure for the pepperttes, and scraping the meat off his hands with a filleting knife... lol:
Naturally, we had the frypan going for tasters:

it is just a simple gear reducer... I believe 4:1. that grinder is about 50 years old, that my dad put together... I have no idea where he got it, but I would imagine any farm supply.
basically just a block with two bearings and a shaft... different sized pulleys to achieve the speed.

Yeah, I just wondered if you knew where to find one. Never seen one anywhere.

I'll check it when I get home from work, see if there is a name or anything on it.

I checked, but apparently forgot to post. There is no name on it, as it is actually homemade. It is just a chunk of pipe with a set of bearings snug fit inside, and the ends of the pipe are hammer crimped over to secure the bearings.The pipe in turn is simply welded to a pedestal. The shaft goes through the bearings and the sheaves are set screwed onto the shaft to hold it's position.

Going to see if I can make something. Thanks.
