Deer meat makes great sausage.<br />On the right side of my blog page is a "Favorite Site" list...almost to the bottom is the "Northwest Smoking" link. There are some great sausage recipes there!<br />I mix a batch, and fry a bit to give it a taste test before stuffing. Then add more seasonings if needed.<br />The only tip I can think of to cowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02516076315691432589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516940939413771830.post-59931664360700813412011-05-08T22:59:21.356-05:002011-05-08T22:59:21.356-05:00I definitely do!

I've smoked them as short as 8 hours and as long as a couple of days.<br /><br />The bacon isn't cooked...just cold smoked so you can add as much smoke to the meat as you like. The lower the temperature and the longer the smoke the better. <br />Good luck with yours! :)cowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02516076315691432589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516940939413771830.post-10988587451124934542010-01-14T13:03:19.599-06:002010-01-14T13:03:19.599-06:00Hi Cowgirl ,

I am looking forward to making my first slab of bacon. I have a question. You cold smoked your bacon below 100 degrees, more like 65 degrees. Rytek Kutas says that he pre heats his smoke house to 135 degrees, applies smoke and holds until internal temperature of bacon reaches 127 - 128 degrees Fstevohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01491247139175037961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516940939413771830.post-55623645947893978012008-12-16T21:35:00.000-06:002008-12-16T21:35:00.000-06:00Thank you Nate!
