Is it possible to make an unfermented summer "type" sausage without sugar?
I have been searching everywhere but it either needs culture, or fermento.
I am just wanting a thick sausage i can slice for sandwhich meat... but I dont have the controlled environment to ferment properly ... and i dont really want potato starch or sugar in my sausage anyway.

Hopefully I havent been a pain in the but with so many questions this past week! I am collecting all the information and excited to get started next week!
 
Ok I found this recipe from 2 guys and a cooler.... but i am wondering if the Sodium Ethyorbate is mandatory? Or can I go ahead without it?

Sorry missed this one.
You pretty much answered your questions on non fermented summer sausage
Fermento (powdered buttermilk) or ECA.
The amount of sugar is only about 1-1/2 teaspoons per kg. I omit sugar as I go way less salt than most.

Sodium erythorbate is not mandatory. Besides being a cure accelerator is an anti oxidant and helps set color better. Just let the sausage rest for a couple of hours before smoking / cooking.

no sodium erythorbate is not mandatory neither is ECA... ECA just give is a tangy quality....you can get rid of the sugar as well... i have a few bologna recipes in my signature i make with venison but they work for any type of meat give them a shot

You are misunderstanding what sugar and MSG does in the recipe ….. just remove them
From recipe and it will tastes just fine if
You don’t want it
