Any of you guys know of a good venison bratwurst recipe? I have a lot of venison, casings, a grinder, and a Fareway 5 minutes away. I'd like to make them in the next couple nights. Thanks for the help.
 
Haven't tried many recipes. But we are pleased with the Eastman Outdoors from Theisens. About $14 and does quite a bit of meat.
 
The guy that processes my deer for me made some Brat patties and they are outta this world!!!! He said all he does is take ground deer and pork mix it together and then adds brat seasoning. I will definetly have a stock pile of these for my next visit
 
What is in the seasonings????? I have the deer ground, have the pork butt ground, have the casings, but need the rest. I make breakfast sausage by adding salt, pepper, sage, and thyme. I think it's different for brats though.
 
I don't know what the actual seasoning is called but he said that you can get it at Fareway. There is no casings he just makes them into patties.
 
My buddy and I have made several different batches of venison brats. We've sampled Polish, Sweet Italian, Hot Italian and traditional bratwurst. We've tried kits from LEM Products, Hi-Mountain, Cabela's and Todd's Spices. My favorite has to be the Hot Italian from LEM Products and the original brat by Todd's Spices. Todd's is located on NE 14th St. in Des Moines just south of I35 a mile or so. The polish was good also from Cabela's - I guess I should say I've liked all of them and total over the last two years have probably made close to 50# of brats. I mix mine 50% Venison and 50% Pork. Some people may say less Pork but I've found the brats stay jucier and cook easier without having to worry about burning them. Plus, it helps stretch out the meat a little if you need to. This year I'm going to make some fresh hot italian and put it into 1# ground venison bags and use them for homemade pizza. If you plan to smoke them make sure you use the cure in any of the kits you buy. Good luck and one more tip - make small batches, say 10# per time. You'll get close to 30 brats and the mess won't make the other half too upset!

go to the fareway meat counter and ask for a package of their brat seasoning. they sell us their sausage seasoning, when we make breakfast sausage
