INSTRUCTIONS
Bear, Beef, Lamb, Pork, Sausage, Veal, Venison
Procedure: Choose fresh, chilled meat. With venison, add one part
high-quality pork fat to three or four parts venison before grinding. Use
freshly made sausage, seasoned with salt and cayenne pepper (sage may cause
a bitter off-flavor). Shape chopped meat into patties or balls or cut cased
sausage into 3- to 4-inch links. Cook until lightly browned. Ground meat
may be sauteed without shaping. Remove excess fat. Fill jars with pieces.
Add boiling meat broth, tomato juice, or water, leaving 1-inch headspace.
Add 2 teaspoons of salt per quart to the jars, if desired.
Adjust lids and process following the recommendations in Table 1 and Table
