    Umai Venison Chorizo

    Never tried this one so interested! I’ve gone over 40% drying a time or two but ended up with a “harder” sausage that I liked so would target right around 40% myself.

    Hiding From Me

    Did it dry out too much? I dry most of my umai by around 40%. Wonder what other folks prefer.

    German Sausages and Meats

    In my travels I have found that there is no consistency at the airport. It just depends on who the agent is. I have had expensive liquids confiscated AFTER buying them past security. I could carry on my fishing rod one flight but not the next. How you held it together after they confiscated...

    7 Pepper Snack Sticks

    Just did the same mix from Owens and will do some more. Will add a pound of pepper Jack hi temp cheese to my next batch. Used bigger sheep casings so can eat as a snack stick or cut in pieces for the small saltine crackers.

    Sweet italian sausage using rabbit.

    Back in the early 1970’s after getting out of the Army a few of the guys rented an old farm house. Coming down the half mile drive after a late night of carousing we thought we were hallucinating; great big rabbits all over! They must have kept rabbits on the farm at one time and they got out...

    Canada Goose Thigh Tasso

    I weep every time I hear of goose hunters “breasting out” their birds, which means throwing away the legs and thighs. Indaswamp has a great idea here, and they smoke up wonderfully as well. Here’s a before and after on goose thighs and legs: About 5 hours of hickory: Cut off the thigh; as...

    Honey BBQ Venison Snack Sticks

    I know exactly what you mean! I give a lot of this away and everyone has the highest compliments for honey bbq. I smoke mine 6 hours and usually add a pound hi-temp pepper Jack or cheddar cheese to each half batch of 6.25 pounds. I have had several folks say it’s the best mix they have ever had.

    Detecting Steel Shot in Waterfowl

    You have to slice it thin enough to detect a shot. It’s not too bad once you get used to it but a big batch of goose sausage would be some work. Microwave does crackle as it detects shot. I’m going to try that next, especially on chunks that don’t have any shot tracks.

    Detecting Steel Shot in Waterfowl

    It’s the steel shot that can wrec havoc. I know what you mean; we never worried much about lead shot and I don’t remember any real problems with it. A #2 steel can break a tooth, especially an older tooth.
