Deer hunting BS thread

I thought that was Bill Jordan, not just Bill. Congratulations

 

Nice buck! Congratulations

 

I went by a grocery store yesterday and got some beef fat so we can grind the deer Cole killed this evening. Guy at the meat department said we got pork fat too. I said roger that.

I've had deer meat ground with pork fat, I think it's okay in sausage but don't really like it in burger.

 

I mix deer grind with fatty beef burger...
when i git 1

 

We haven't bought beef burger in forever.

 

I’ve always heard no to pork if you want a medium rare burger.

also heard of people grinding in bacon which I want to try at some point.

 

Bacon is pork.... but yeah pork is food safe to 145°

I usually dont mix any fat in. The deer here arent gamey at all.

 

I know a guy who makes summer sausage with deer meat and adds bacon to it. It's good. Bacon is too expensive though.

 

Our deer have very little fat. It gets dry cooking it.

 

I also use fatty beef burger for a binder.
I also do a batch where I mix in slab bacon.
Triple ground, of course.

 

Yep. I keep my deer deer unless I’m making sausage.

 

I think i did have some added once in MD but usually dont add any. Unless its the summer sausage.

 

Yea that’s just the only pork that I think may make it worth it.

bacon is smoked atleast so I could say that makes me feel safer but not really.

 

ground venison, wont hold a patty, I only add for burgs, udder than that, straight venison

 

@StayinStock ewe in?
