Hello hello! I'm new to the forums and looking forward to the ensuing discussions. I'm an avid hunter and wild game food fanatic. I enjoy grilling, smoking, sous vide, cast-iron cooking and, curing/dehydrating meats.
I made 18 pounds of venison breakfast sausage tonight that turned out great. I am also making jalapeno/cheese link venison sausage, and some spicy venison snack sticks.
Would you all smoke the link sausage or just freeze as is? What about the snack sticks? I don't have a smokehouse, so would just have to smoke them on a regular smoker. What cure would you use for smoking vs. non smoking?
Thanks.
