Deer Bologna
For German Bologna use Lean Beef instead of venison
For 10 lbs:

7 lbs venison
3 lbs pork butts
1 tsp ground white pepper
3 Tbs ground mustard
1 Tbs ground celery
1 tsp ground nutmeg
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp garlic powder
4.5 Tbs powdered dextrose
2 cups soy protein concentrate (or Substitute with Non Fat Dry Milk)
2 cups ice water
2 tsp Instacure #1 (DQ Curing salt #1, Prague Powder #1, pink salt)
4 Tbs salt

Grind meat through 3/16' grinder plate. Mix ingredients and distribute evenly, add water as you go. Bologna is usually stuffed into 8" diameter casings but 3.5", 5" or any size that is handy will work too. Hang at room temperature until casings are dry. Place in preheated smoker at 165 degrees, until internal temp reaches 150 degrees. Remove and cool in a water bath until internal temp is brought down to around 90 degrees. This type of bologna is usually not smoked. If you like a more store bought look, be sure to emulsify the meat while grinding.

Nice looking bologna! My wife and I each have deer tags for this fall. Guess what I'm making.:thumb1 copy:
 
Bassman,
If you make the bologna and stuff into regular SS casings it is really good that way as well.
 
That sure looks good... is bologna as easy to make as Summer Sausage?

I have a friend that uses this recipe exclusively as his summer sausage. He says it tastes better than anything he has gotten from a locker plant. And he can make it at home himself. So Yes it is as easy as making Summer Sausage.
 
I am going to try this one once the weather gets a little cooler her...

Why wait?? with this recipe you can use the house oven. That what makes this such a great recipe. The house oven is what my buddy uses he doesn't have a smoker of any type.
