I'm gonna give this recipe a whirl, but I am planning on using 40% Duck meat, 40% pork butt, 20% brisket fat cap (leftover from trimming the recent brisket I cooked)

*I know there is a lot of controversy surrounding the use of brisket fat in sausages, but I've done my research. There is good fat and bad fat on a brisket. Good fat is the fat cap, bad fat is the deckle according the Aaron Franklin. http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/262204/suggest-a-sausage-recipe-beef-fat-and-duck-meat

Will post a thread when I start.

If you're going to make Texas sausage, you gotta use Texas beer!

I'm not against using Texas beers, but that one is not on my list of good Texas beers. I may be a beer snob...
