What do y'all add to your deer for grinding? I'm thinking about using pork butt. What's the ratios? I have a meat your maker 1hp on the way and I'm new to this.

i use pork butt for general grind and sausages. i use bacon for grind i know im gonna press into hamburgers. for general grind i go 30% fat. sausage recipes vary widely so i follow the recipe. burgers i only do 20% bacon otherwise it seems to overpower.
if you've got a recipe you know you love that uses ground - say a meatloaf - make a couple batches at different ratios and see which you prefer. a lot of this you'll tweak/change as you go along.

I use 4/1 ratio deer to beef fat for general purpose grind, and substitute pork butt for grind that will be used for burgers
I use 1 lb bacon to 4 lb venison for burger.
1 lb pork butt to 3 lb venison for meat sticks.

Straight venison for us. If we wanted beef or pork we'd just buy it at the store.
You must not eat deer burgers cause you can't make them without fat to hold them together. We use straight ground for spaghetti tacos and chili
We eat deer burgers all the time. Use a patty press and wax paper before you freeze them and cook from frozen. If I make a burger from a frozen tube of ground we just add breadcrumbs. Holds together fine.
Sometimes I make a beast burger. I'll thaw a tube of wild boar ground and a tube of venison and mix them together. That's a great burger!
Do you add beews
do you add bread crumbs before you press them or before you cook them?
No crumbs to the press Patty's, just add them to regular ground before we pat them out.
