I got this recipe on another hunting site which went south and I lost the only copy I had a few years ago. After some trial and error I made a 15lb batch over the holidays and this is damn close to the original which was great IMO. Anyway it was posted by a guy named Jorge so cheers to him! I make patties out of it for breakfast, or brown up a pound in a big skillet, once the meat is done add a can of pinto beans (drained) mash up some of the beans with a big spoon and let it crust up a bit and eat it with cornbread – awesome.

Ingredients for a 5 lb batch. Use whatever ratio of fat to game meat you want. I usually use venison about 15% pork trimmings.

Chili Powder 1/3 cup
Paprika 1/3 cup
Salt 1 Tbs
All Spice 1 Tsp
Black Pepper 1 Tbs
Cumin 1 Tbs
Garlic Powder 1 Tsp
Flour ¼ cup
White Vinegar ½ cup

Grind meat and fat with coarse plate. Add ingredients, mix by hand and grind with medium plate.
I usually package it in 1 quart Ziplocs.
