Ingredients

  • 1cupcold water
  • 3tablespoonssugar-based curing mixture (such as Morton® Tender Quick®)
  • 2teaspoonsliquid smoke flavoring
  • 2teaspoonsmustard seed
  • 1teaspoongarlic powder
  • 1teaspooncoarse ground black pepper
  • 3poundslean ground venison
  • 1cupshredded Cheddar cheese
  • 2jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced

  • Directions

    Stir cold water, curing mixture, liquid smoke, mustard seed, garlic powder, and black pepper in a large bowl until curing mixture is dissolved. Mix in venison, Cheddar cheese, and jalapeño peppers until evenly blended and somewhat sticky, about 3 minutes. Divide mixture in half, then roll each half into 2-inch-thick logs. Wrap each log tightly with aluminum foil and refrigerate for 24 hours.

    Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

    Remove foil from sausage logs and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.

    Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of sausages reads at least 160 degrees F (72 degrees C), 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Cool sausages on a rack to room temperature. Dab occasionally with a paper towel to absorb excess grease. Slice thinly to serve.
