    Honey in place of corn syrup for brats?

    The idea of replacing corn syrup with honey came from my wife and I eating paleo. We switched our eating to the paleo lifestyle a couple weeks ago and we're loving it! We feel better, and are losing weight! The really good part is we can still eat meat! Lol As long as I control what goes into my...

    Honey in place of corn syrup for brats?

    I made up a trial batch of honey brats today and they were great! I used about 2/3 the amount of corn syrup and it was about right. The honey added a little flavor but not too much at all. Thanks!

    Honey in place of corn syrup for brats?

    I make brats using a len poli recipe I believe and they're great! I use corn syrup which is what the recipe calls for but I was thinking about using honey instead. Would the honey work well? I'm also thinking about trying a small batch with sriracha in it! woohoo!

    I hate when they put butts on sale for $.99lbs

    So many types of sausage, so little time lol!  Awesome! Just browse thru the pages of a sausage book. That usually gets me stoked about making a half a dozen different sausages!

    Green Sausage

    A lot of woods go well with deer sausage. A lot of it is personal choice, IMO. I usually use hickory and cherry. Sometimes add in some oak. Or some apple.  You will need to thaw out the meat before smoking. Otherwise, it won't cook properly/evenly.  Good luck!

    Smoking Snack Sticks Hang them or Rack them?

    I guess really a person should do whichever gives them the most efficient use of space in their smoker. Some aren't really tall enough to hang effectively and vice versa. To me, sausage should be hung mostly because that's the way its been done historically. I'm sure it will be fine either way...

    First time Venison Summer Sausage (advice?)

    I too mix and stuff promptly. Even then sometimes I'll add a little ice water if the mix is really thick and I'm stuffing small casings.  There are quite a few recipes on the board here. I recently tried several of SausageMaker's mixes and didn't care for any of them really. I like my own...
