Venison Breakfast Sausage

Breakfast has always been my favorite meal.  One of my favorite things to have is breakfast sausage.  Recently, I tried making breakfast sausage out of venison for the first time and it turned out great!

I was able to get a blend of pork fat and venison right from the deer processor but there is instructions below on how to make it yourself at home.  Make sure that you have a meat grinder on hand if you choose to make it yourself at home.

Common Questions About Making Venison Breakfast Sausage Patties

What is venison sausage made from?

Venison sausage is made from a combination of venison, pork trimmings (fat), a combination of spices such as garlic, sage, thyme, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, plus a bit of pure maple syrup.

How much pork fat do I add to deer sausage?

If you are making venison breakfast sausage from scratch, I suggest using about 60% venison and 40% pork trimmings.  Dice everything up, mix together, and then run it all through a meat grinder.

What are pork trimmings?

Pork trimmings are mostly pork fat and a bit of meat scraps still attached.  This is something you should be able to get from a local butcher.

How do you make sausage seasonings from scratch?

There is a lot of flexibility when it comes to what seasonings you can you in homemade sausage.  Some of the most popular ones include –

  • Paprika
  • Garlic
  • Fennel seeds
  • Black pepper
  • Red pepper flakes
  • Onion
  • Thyme
  • Sage

Feel free to experiment and try different combinations of seasonings.
