How To Make A Venison Pastrami Log -- edit 1

This is a short video of how to make beef, venison, or beef & venison pastrami log. In it commonly available vertical sausage stuffer and mixer were used to produce 2-5lb pastrami logs. The process excludes the grind but is concentrated on the mixing, stuffing, and cooking process in a residential environment. Slicing and packing are touched on lightly using a commercial slicer and residential vacuum sealer. The recipe is available at the end. - Recipe edit

Made this today. Had no casings so made it in a 2lb loaf tin. In a word "Superb". I will make this often that's for sure.

can you use beer or beef broth or ust stay with water

[rldel149]

I don't see why not.

The thing with beef broth is it may add flavor but may also add salt (depending on if it is a dry reconstituted soup base or bouillon). Canned broth probably OK.

If you used homemade broth you want to be careful in handling it to be sure it is both fresh and recently re-boiled to be sure there is nothing growing in it that could spoil your sausage. But, that is why ensure we get it up to or down to temp. (40-140 deg is the generally accepted danger zone for food).

I do appreciate it.

This is literally the best UTube Vid I've ever seen. Many thanks for sharing your experience with the public domain. You have done a six-star job, but I can only give you five. : )

Hey, That was neat the way you done that. However I don't have any of those kitchen appliances. Would it be alright to use a cement mixer to mix the meat with and use an empty caulking gun to fill the skins with? Last but not least could you use a table saw to cut that stuff up? Oh, I'm just kidding.

Really looks good. Thanks.
