Thread: Show me ya Sausage!!

From time to time I see all ya wild game sausages popping up on here and it inspired me to go have a dig round in the freezer. I found 3kg of fallow and 2kg of red (scrappy cuts)that I was never gonna get round to doing anything with. I took them down to the local butcher, he put in a couple of kg beef to get a full mix.

Ended up with 8.5kg of finished product for $40. Picked them up this arvo, mrs already had tea on the table when I got home so I put a bag in the fridge for tomorrow night.

Well to be frank I'm a big fan of a good sausage and I just couldnt bare the 22hr wait so slipped a sneaky one in the pan for pudding

Bloody beautiful

Pretty keen to hear what mixes/seasonings/herbs/spices/butchers you fullas use and how you go about getting them to the table

Venison and garlic does it for me BF.

Ive spent the last 5 min trying to imagine the taste, I like mussels and I like venison and putting them in a sausage could only enhance the flavour. Have you ever smoked a mussel and veni sausage? I reckon thatd be the goods

Nah never. Would be good. Now that my old boy no longer works at the mussel factory we don't get them free so cant be arsed.

I had a bit of a sausage fest tonight, dropped all my boned out venison and turkey down at the butcher the other day, picked it up tonight. Ended up with 20kg of venison sausages and 12kg of turkey. And still got some patties coming next week dont know where they guna go as Ive just bought half a beast and the sausies have topped the chest freezer up to the lid...might have to do some tato tato round some mates this weekends

So I got home and thought "Ive gotta have a hoon on these turkey sausies" but then I really wanted to try the venison...only one remedy for such a dilemma....mrs and kids got home to mount sausage on the dinner table

Turkey turned out beautiful, Id highly recommend it to anybody who has access to turkey, venison were primo to.

Definitely nothing wrong with prime sausage at $5 per kg, forgot to take a pic before tea but heres one of the left overs.

Have you answered my question about your AI?
