Time P1DT4h

Yield 160

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 cups sugar-based curing mixture (such as Morton® Tender Quick®)
3 cups firmly packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons monosodium glutamate (MSG)
2 teaspoons ground mace
2 teaspoons mustard powder
6 tablespoons coarse ground black pepper
6 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes
¼ cup garlic powder
40 pounds ground venison
16 fluid ounces liquid smoke
½ hank 1 1/2 to 1 3/4-inch beef rounds casings

Steps:

Stir together the curing mixture, sugar, MSG, mace, mustard, ground pepper, pepper flakes, and garlic powder. Sprinkle over venison in a large mixing tub. Mix the spices into the meat, then pour in the liquid smoke. Mix together by hand for several minutes until very well combined. Place into a non-reactive (glass or plastic) container, cover, and refrigerate for 24 hours. Prepare casings according to note below, allow to soak overnight.
To stuff, cut off a 2-foot (60-centimeter) piece of casing, pinch out the water, and tie a knot at one end. Using a sausage stuffer or large funnel, fill the casing to within 4 inches of the end. Tie the open end close to the meat, so that the bologna is firm. Tie the two ends together to form a circle. Repeat with remaining casings and bologna.
Preheat oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
Bake the bologna in preheated oven until they reach an internal temperature of 180 degrees F (82 degrees C), about 2 hours. Once cooked, allow to cool, and refrigerate until cold. The bologna may be kept tightly wrapped in the freezer. To serve, cut through the casing lengthwise, then slice the bologna into thin slices. Peel the casing off of the bologna slices and discard before eating.

HOMEMADE DEER (VENISON) BOLOGNA

Homemade Deer (Venison) Bologna image

This is a great recipe for the hunter that likes to make there own bologna. I use the ground sausage you find in your local gerocery store. I like the Jimmy Dean Ground Pork Sausage thats in the plastic bags. Dont use the sausage that already has casings on it. You can leave out the liquid smoke and use a maple breakfast sausage for a sweet taste. You can also use reagular beef hamburger instead of Venison if you wish. I dont like my bologna spicy hot so I dont add the red peppers. Also the only place I could find the Morton Tener Quick Salt is at my local Hardware store. I dont know why my grocery stores dont carry it.
