Antelope Breakfast Sausage Recipe

This is a meal that I feel everyone should try at least once in their lives, but I’m guessing many of you don’t have any Pronghorn Antelope breakfast sausage on hand. First and foremost, we must resolve the issue of obtaining Antelope morning sausage.

In the United States, buying and selling wild-harvested game meat is prohibited. Over a century ago, this was put in place to prevent market hunters from slaughtering herds of the game to sell the meat to the neighbouring town. If you’ve ever ordered an Elk Burger or Venison Chili at a restaurant, the beef utilised in such dishes was farm-raised.

Pronghorn Antelope are a widely distributed species with historical movement patterns and a penchant for “turning on the jets,” which is difficult to achieve in a high-fence situation.

If this is your first time hunting the world’s second-fastest land animal, I recommend hiring a reputable guide and outfitter. I used SNS Outfitters for my first Antelope hunt, and I was pretty satisfied with the results.

For hunting recommendations, habitat observations, and shot placement instructions, your Guide will be a far superior resource. Therefore, I won’t duplicate them in this article.

Once you’ve got your Pronghorn down, do me a favour and ask your Guide whether you can field dress it yourself, with his help if needed. My Guide told me that just one or two individuals ask him to do it each season and that most people expect him to perform the dirty work for them. You’d better be able to remove the refuse if you’re going to consume it.

We entrusted a local butcher with breaking down and packing the meat, and we crammed a substantial portion of Antelope Breakfast Sausage into our cooler before heading home at the suggestion of the Guide.

Antelope meat has relatively little flavour or texture in common with deer venison. Trying to explain it to you would only highlight my deficiencies with the written word. Please believe me when I say that everyone I’ve introduced to antelope meat has been pleasantly delighted.

Wild game is frequently served with the same items that the animal enjoyed. Some people dislike antelope because of its strong sage flavour, but I believe it’s fantastic. Rather than concealing the taste of pronghorn, try infusing it with fresh herbs, sweet apple, and savoury onions inside a sausage.

If there was ever a sausage that embodied the essence of autumn, this is it. For a complete supper, grill them with a side of sweet potatoes and cabbage. Alternatively, get creative and use it in various other sausage-based recipes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Antelope weighing 4 pounds
  • 1 pound fatback pork (2535 per cent fat ratio)
  • 10 ft. of new hog casings (3235 mm in diameter)
  • 1 big sliced yellow onion
  • a half teaspoon of cooking oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh sage
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon rosemary, minced
  • 1 teaspoon celery seed
  • Kosher salt, 3 tbsp.
  • 1 tsp. cayenne pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups finely chopped apple
  • 1/2 cup cold apple cider

EXTREMELY SPECIAL EQUIPMENT

Sausage stuffer, sauté pan, scale, grinder, mixer (optional)

Instructions

  1. Chopping the meat and fat into little cubes is an excellent way to start. To avoid clogging the auger when grinding, remove extra sinew and silverskin. The most acceptable option is pure pork fatback, but pork butt will also suffice. Weigh out about 3 12 to 4 pounds of antelope meat and slightly over a pound of fatback, or until the fat-to-meat ratio reaches 25-30%. Transfer the heart to the freezer to cool, either on a metal sheet tray or within a metal dish. The meat should be freezing but not frozen and have a crisp texture. In addition to the meat, it’s a good idea to keep the blade, auger, and grinder plate in the freezer.
  2. Prepare the other ingredients while the meat is chilling. In a medium-sized sauté pan, heat the cooking oil. Cook until the onion is tender and transparent. 1 1/3 cup onion, measured out and transferred to a tray or bowl. Place this in the freezer for a few minutes to chill. At this point, you can also measure up the apple cider and put it in the freezer. You don’t want anything to freeze solid, but you want everything to be icy.
  3. To get the right amount, mince the fresh herbs and pack them into measuring spoons. In a small bowl, add the salt and spices.
  4. If using dried intestines, prepare the casings according to the package directions. Soak dried or fresh herbs for at least 10 to 20 minutes in lukewarm water. To flush the insides of the cases, hold them under running water. They should be soft and odourless. Thread the casing through the sausage stuffer’s feeding tube. To release air, tie a knot at one end and pierce a needle.
  5. Remove all ingredients from the freezer and set up your grinder as directed by the manufacturer. If your meat is chopped into 1-inch cubes, you can use the tiny die to ground it once. If the cubed beef is in larger chunks, you’ll need to start with a plate with large holes and then switch to a dish with smaller holes. To keep it cool after grinding, fill a tub with ice and place a large bowl within (or the bowl that attaches to a standing mixer if you have one).
  6. Mix the meat, fat, herbs, and sautéed onion in a big container and crush into a dish set over ice.
  7. After that, you’ll need to make the bind. You can use a standing mixer with a paddle attachment, but your hands or a spatula can also be used. Slowly fold the diced apple into the meat mixture to incorporate. Pour in the cold apple cider slowly to help the sausage emulsify. The texture of the mixture should be sticky, not crumbly.
  8. Fill the canister of your sausage stuffer with the bind. Extrude the meat into the casings slowly. Don’t overstuff your bag. Tie off the end with another knot when you’re done.
  9. Pinch in 8-10″ intervals to make links, then twist every other tie down the length of the sausage until it’s done. Using a needle, prick any air pockets.
  10. Place the dead links on a tray inside the fridge, uncovered, for optimal results. Drying the casings for up to a day will help them firm and cook with a crispy texture. When you’re ready to cook, cut the links apart using scissors.
  11. Cook the sausages until they achieve an internal temperature of 160 degrees by pan-frying, grilling, or smoking.
