venison haunch

Where to buy, how to use. Stuffers, casings, spices, grinders, etc.

Well, bangers and mash it was tonight. We tried one of each type of venison sausage made yesterday, and both were lovely and very different from each other.

The herby ones had quite a traditional herby flavour, and the Christmas ones had a subtle and different flavour with each bite.

WW,

I miss typed that. What I meant was actually 50p per Kilo. that is about 22p/lb.

either way they make an awesome sausage so I'm happy to make them and give the excess to freinds and to family rather than sell the venison.

Heather that Orange sounds nice. I'll try some zest next time and some dried apricots and cranberries too.

BTW, I've just signed up and there are so many good ideas on this bord. Just figured I should say hello!! :)

A cautionary note.. be careful if using fresh orange zest, it is crammed with oil and can quickly overpower the other tastes.

Yep good point Paul, also I make cranberry and venision sausages and soaked the cramberries in port but I found that way can be too sweet.

I reckon venison, with the addition of pork backfat would come out OK using Spuddy's recipe. I still have a bit of venison in the freezer so may have a dabble sometime.

Game biltong is quite popular in South Africa - they make it out of anything that walks with its back to the sun.

I personally have had as zebra, kudu, buffalo, elephant, ostrich, springbok, and others i don't care to remember :-)

A friend on whose farm we used to hunt in SA shot a baboon that was a nuisance, and his son made biltong out of it and took it back to school with him in the new term - no one ever bothered him for biltong again!
