Venison Brat Ratios with Pork Butt and Bacon
-
Great site. I am ready to make some venison burger, and brats. I want to mix the venison with pork butt, and bacon. I’ve seen up to a 50/50 mixture when adding pork butt, versus 80/20 if using straight suet. Is this correct? I would guess the difference is because you are also adding meat with the PB. I would also subtract some PB, and replace with bacon. Thank you.

nicholls47 That is the ratio I am thinking of using for my elk and venison brats.

CaptMike I like venison and pork butt mixed 50/50 I think it makes great 1/3 lb burgers for the grill, top with green chile and cheese.

I just mixed 50 venison, 25/25 pork butt/bacon, then stuffed three casings. First time for that. I may have overstuffed them. But they look good. I had to pack it in for day, so will vacuum seal and freeze it to continue at another time. Does anyone use the same meat for burgers, and sausage stuffing? I will try that out shortly, after a lot of clean up. Jalapeño German Beer Brats!!! Thank you all for the replies.

CaptMike I often hold some of the meat for burgers.
