Anyone make sausages, I need some inspiration!

[Stratts]

Hi guys got given a mincer for xmas as I want to try making my own snags out of the things I shoot to keep in the freezer.

I aim to eat healthier and be more self sufficient now we have an allotment too.

Anyone do their own sausages with anything that they shoot?

I have pheasant and pigeon breast, hare and rabbit meat in the freezer and now my variation is through for the 22-250 I'll be getting the odd Muntjac for the freezer next year.

I also have perms with squizzers which I don't tend to concentrate on but would take a few to try if anyone has tried squizzer sausages. I tried one on a bbq last year and found it really greasy tbh,

Cheers

Hi Stratts,
Yes I have made sausages and pies with roe deer,rabbit and bacon,pheasant and a few others you can buy the casings either natural or collagen
and to start with hand stuffing is O.K. but slow, if you are going to do it regularly then you will need a stuffer from the net. one tip always fry a little pat
of the mixture to try for taste while mixing. go steady with the seasonings, you can soon overdo it!! mix and try, to save ruining a whole batch.

Thanks mate like the sound of rabbit and bacon!

I make rabbit/woody/squizzer burgers as they are easier to make than snorkers. Always go down well when i take them to BBQ`s I just weigh the meat then add the same weight in belly pork. Mince the lot together and crush up a pack of Paxo sage and onion stuffing and add that to the mix. This acts as a binding agent as well as adding taste. Finely chopped onion goes in next. Then out with the Burger maker and bobs your uncle. Funnily enough was thinking about doing these as my next youtube vid
