I really like their mix. My personal preference is to slightly over season with it as it's a bit mild if you measure it exact. Example 5 lbs of meat but use seasoning for 5 1/2lbs.
I've also seen that page.
I typically use NFDM for all my sausages however the Pepperoni came with soy so I used that up. Because this was wild game and Bear to boot and had to achieve a higher internal temp they were not really moist but still had moisture. They came out perfect!
Yes sir 165 internal temp. Although I have read 137 was the magic temp to go above to kill Tricinosis.
Here is a good read on Bear and feral pigs. I found other resources that said the same as well.

Well decided to make up another batch of Bear Pepperoni and decided to also make some snack sticks as I only had enough Pepperoni Seasoning left to do 6 lbs.
Meat mixture consisted of:
7 lbs Black Bear
5 lbs pork shoulder
2 lbs Fatty pork.

I usually keep around 50 lbs of venison to grind each year. 20 lbs of Italian Sausage, 15 lbs of Breakfast Sausage & 15 lbs of burger. Any additional grind goes toward smoked sausage of some sort. Roasts go to pastrami or pot roast. Ill have to give this a pastrami a shot. I bet it makes...
I checked out your post and man that looks great! I'm gonna have to try that for sure.
I make Venison Pastrami every year out of the roasts. I can't keep it in my freezer because all my friends and family want some :-)
Here is a Venison Pastrami pic and a Elk Heart Pastrami as well.
Thanks everyone. I harvest a lot of different wild game meat and fish and try to incorporate them into a smoked product.
The trail bologna was my first time doing a smoke in larger casings and it turned out excellent. I definitely can't wait to do more of this size.
Up next on my project...

Knowing how unreliable these temperature gauges are that come with smoker I was monitoring the temps with my Maverick. I had the smoker probe mid cabinet and 1/4 of the way down from the ceiling. I was not aware to the fact that hickory burned hotter. This is my first go around with a...
Folks,
Need some help. I just got this smoker and am having temperature issues. First off during installation I sealed where the firebox attaches to the smoking chamber with high temp silicone and I sealed all the seams of the firebox. I also added a gasket to both doors.
During my...
64Caddy,
I just purchased the same smoker and am having the same exact issues! My last attempt I did put a water pan on the bottom shelf and got a much better result but couldn't get it below 250.
Let me know if you figure out he answer and I will let you know the same!

Nepas I have a couple questions. I have the same seasoning to use. If I don't smike them to finiahed temp and want to dry cure do I just add a culture and cold smoke? Do I add dextrose?
