Brown Sugar in smoked link deer sausage??

[cobrafnd]

I am making some pineapple Jalopeno smoked link sausage tonight and smoking it tomorrow morning. I seen one of the local butchers uses some brown sugar in theirs. Anyone know how much brown sugar you would add to say 50# of sausage?

There is a thread here that one member posted a spice usage table. I have it but cant post pictures right now. The list says sugar 1-2grams per kilogram of meat. Maybe someone else can post the table, its handy to have.

Depends on what percentage you want. The higher percentage the sweeter. That is percent by pound. 2% percent would probably be ok sort of a middle of the road. So about 16 ounces should do it.

I use 1/4 cup per 25# and it gives it a back ground sweetness with the pineapple. Just be sure to use cooked pineapple or your sausage will turn to mush.

Thx y’all! Used canned pineapple and used 80 oz of pineapple and 10 oz of brown sugar to 46# of sausage.
