Grandpas Homemade Sausage Recipes

SAUSAGE (MY GRANDPA'S HOMEMADE)

My Grandpa used to make lots of goodies every year around Christmas. His sausage was probably one of my favorites. We would snack on it all day long with crackers and cheeses. Please keep in mind it's written on an old post card and it's not very descriptive, (he passed away in 2000 and I was never able to ask him about his recipes) so I did my best. If you ever try to make this and find a better way, please offer me suggestions. I have not made this yet, almost in fear of it not tasting as good as it did when I was little. I am thinking about making it this Christmas. If I do and I find the need to edit some things I'll do so as soon as possible.

GRAMPA'S CORIANDER TURKEY SAUSAGE

My father-in-law is known for his Sunday breakfasts. Homemade sausage, fluffy eggs and tender fried potatoes and onions...yum. My kids loved spending time at Gramma's and Grampa's farm with the horses and other animals, and always came home talking about breakfast -- which was normally served well after 11 a.m.! (I have mixed all the ingredients together and fried right away -- tastes great, but don't tell Grampa!)

Steps:

Place the venison in a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle with the curing mixture, mustard seed, garlic salt, pepper, and liquid smoke. Mix well with your hands until the mixture is evenly blended and begins to stick together, about 2 minutes.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 days, mixing well each day.
Preheat an oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
Divide the mixture into 5 one-pound logs, place onto a broiler pan, and place a sheet of aluminum foil on top to cover.
Bake in the preheated oven until the logs are no longer pink in the center, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), 6 to 8 hours. Turn the meat once or twice during cooking. Allow to cool before slicing thinly and serving.
