Thanks steve. You ever make garlic sausage, smokeys, pepperoni and other smoked options out of the grind?

No, I grind the fat into mine, so it does not make good jerky and I have not got into sausage making yet.

If you guys don't have sausage recipes of your own try looking up Hi Country mixes on the internet. They are out of Lincoln Montana. I can attest to how fantastic the sausage and jerky mixes are and guarantee you will love them. HI COUNTRY

Waltons Inc out of Wichita, KS is another great source. I would guess 90% of their business is commercial, but they are more than willing to work with the individual consumer. They have several videos as well that are quite educational. I've been using them for several years now.

We've been eating sheep foe 35yrs and have never found the need to grind it. We have tons of grinding meat and smaller parcels of sheep go into the stewpot.

lol the only thing that went into grind bags was trim to small for stew meet and a few tougher looking pieces. Did not end up with very much grind . The rest I cut into steak, roast, and, cube stew meat.

My wife likes the small trimmings ground up. She makes some really good curry dishes with it. Nothing wrong with grinding up a little bit of sheep, it all gets eaten quickly around my house.

We ground our shanks and other small trim pieces - maybe 5 lbs worth. I froze the grind in very small packs, just enough for 3 medium burger patties. My intention is to simply add salt, pepper and an egg for sheep burgers. Maybe a light smear of dijon on a nice bun and some greens.

Did this last night for the first time and it was great. I've got plenty of other critter burger to drown in sauces, curries and casseroles. The sheep will get treated differently.

Nothin wrong with grinding up sheep.

I like to grind some with extra fat (sheep fat) and make Maple Breakfast Sausage. mmmgood. Also, Shmoose burger is really good. The added fat and flavor combined with the lean moose makes very tasty burgers.
