    Advice needed for grinding venison

    Ground my first ever batch of venison hamburger. I double ground at 85/15 with medium plate. Should it have been fine grind? The burgers pattied real loose and fell apart in the grill despite the 85:15 ratio. Any idea why?

    Why did my sausage dry out

    Fresh. I wanted to poach them for quick cooking. I made a batch using "tropics" Italian recipe with same fat meat ratio and it was awesome but didn't poach it. I honestly didn't mix it very long. How long should I have mixed it? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Why did my sausage dry out

    It was the Thai recipe posted on here. I used 50:50 skin on chicken thighs and venison that was preground at 90:10. 1/2 cup coconut milk and 1/2 cup NFDM. The rest was spices. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    That looks great and I like that there are no peanuts in it. Is the spice ratio for 3 lbs ground? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Opinion of AC Leggs

    I used a pack of kielbasa seasoning and it turned out decent. Anybody used either the breakfast or mild Italian mixes? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    So which would you buy then?  The cabelas?  I wonder how customer service will be with their store brand since BPS bought them?

    Questions : Cure #1 saltiness in recipe

    If I want to make and freeze a fresh sausage and am using a recipe that calls for cure #1. Can I substitute table or kosher salt for it since I'm not smoking it and get the same flavor? Or is cure salt more salty? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
