Venison bacon

[brockel]

Any of you make venison bacon? Tried it for the first time this week and I’ll for sure be making more. I’ll add a couple more things to it but man it’s pretty good stuff

 

[Gellar]

I’ve never made it before but I’ve seen recipes and I have always wanted to give it a try.

My son had some made from his deer last fall, I will be getting some made this fall...

What was the recipe you tried? Hoping to get a doe or two later this season and would be interested in trying it out.

I use it for mallards, it's pretty damn good.

Just looked at recipe, one I use is whole muscle then you slice it

Looks real good and I enjoy it when I have it. I usually get it from a buddy. I make a point to harass him about calling it "bacon" though. It should be called "sliced venison breakfast sausage" or "venison fake'n". Real bacon comes from a pig.

Beats the he** out of a salad shooter brockel...

I made some moose bacon this spring. Gonna make some more in the near future. I'm going to try it with a much coarser grind to see if it's any better, but this turned out really good too.

Hit you up on the next batch. Season starts day after tomorrow

I am making 25# batch this week. I see most folks smoking it or adding Maple Syrup to it. I was thinking of putting Liquid Smoke in it and doing it in the Shop oven where I can control the temps better. Anyone use an oven as opposed to an outdoor smoker? John

Venison Bacon

Try something different with your deer trim - the best homemade Venison Bacon. Mix deer with pork, add seasoning and mix. Form into 2" loaves and let cure over night. Put on smoke screens, smoke until fully cooked. Slice and eat. Comes with sure cure and Venison Bacon recipe that tells you how...

I didn't do it myself, but I've had elk bacon similar to what's been posted and was very impressed with it.

 

[Rob96]

Processor I use calls it hillbilly bacon.

Hickory nuts out of Wisconsin makes the best venison bacon within 12 hours of me! Every year a group of us send around 1500lbs of venison to be made in to bacon. It's a big group!

Liquid smoke isn't my favorite taste. You could smoke it on low heat then finish in the oven I've done that before with other things. Sometimes it's hard to smoke stuff when it's zero out.

Haven't made it with venison, but I did make some goose bacon. It was amazing! If I hadn't told you it was goose you would swear it was ham.

 

[Redman]

Since it isn't whole meat wouldn't it be called Spam?

I didn't follow this recipe. The recipe I used was for the Crane bacon that Randy and company had in Arizona. I used whole goose breasts.
