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
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.

Tips:
- Choose the right venison: Use venison from a healthy deer that has been properly field dressed and butchered. Avoid using meat from deer that have been shot with lead bullets, as the lead can contaminate the meat.
- Trim the venison: Remove any fat or sinew from the venison before grinding it. This will help to ensure that the bologna has a smooth texture.
- Use a fine grind: Grind the venison using a fine grind setting on your meat grinder. This will help to create a smooth, spreadable bologna.
- Season the venison: Season the ground venison with your favorite seasonings. Common seasonings for venison bologna include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and sage.
- Add some fat: Adding some fat to the ground venison will help to keep the bologna moist and flavorful. You can use pork fat, beef fat, or even butter.
- Stuff the bologna casings: Stuff the seasoned venison into bologna casings using a sausage stuffer. Be sure to leave some room at the ends of the casings so that the bologna can expand during cooking.
- Smoke the bologna: Smoke the bologna in a smoker at a low temperature (around 150 degrees Fahrenheit) for several hours. This will help to give the bologna a delicious smoky flavor.
- Cook the bologna: After smoking, cook the bologna in a pot of boiling water for about 30 minutes. This will help to ensure that the bologna is cooked through.
Conclusion:
Homemade deer venison bologna is a delicious and versatile meat that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. It can be sliced and served on sandwiches, added to soups and stews, or even used as a pizza topping. With a little time and effort, you can easily make your own deer venison bologna at home.
