twilliams you will probably need to add fat but should be good

I picked up a brisket today and plan on a 50/50 mix and also going to try a batch with venison and just beef fat as well as experiment and add bacon and hi temp chees to some for grilling burgers… the new grinder is out for delivery on the Fedex truck…

venison is very lean you might need to add more fat

Jonathon thanks. I hear you and others talk about beef bone marrow. Is that something you can buy at any butcher shop, big grocery store or what. Is it just a real strong beef flavor or what is the benefit?

Was wondering the same thing. Bone marrow is a very small part of the yield from a carcass and takes extra labor to recover it. I am not aware of any sources for marrow.
Considering how good marrow tastes by itself, I am surprised any makes it to the consumer market. I would imagine the restaurant trade gets the bulk of it.

Bacon trimmings ground and mix with lean meat like venison is quite tasty. Helps bind and you get some smoke from the bacon.

I challenge you to find any food that is not improved after mixing bacon with it.

I usually grind up bacon with the venison a little salt and pepper. add some wood chips to the hardwood in the grill. Good to go.
The burgers hold up well , I don’t have a press but my 2 hands do a pretty good job.

sounds great.

processhead Thinking you just want someone to fall after chasing their tail for 10 mins thinking up a combo that doesn’t work with bacon.

I shot a bull elk in MT 2 years ago and added 10% beef fat. That was some of the best burger I have ever had. It held its shape great. Just seasoned with some salt and pepper.
