I never ever add beef or pork meat or fat...you LOSE the taste of your elk. Crack in an egg per pound mix it up and season with salt and pepper. If the mixture is a little too "wet" add in very small amount of unseasoned bread crumbs to dry it up a little bit.

No it won't tast like meat loaf. I use this basic mix for my breakfast sausage also and just add the spice I need.

For meatballs, I add in the pre-mixed Italian Seasoning and then purposefully add-in some seasoned Italian bread crumbs.

I am a firm believer of not adding any domestic meat to any of my ground game meat.

Internet analysis: 1 in a row is a trend, 2 in a row is statistically significant, and 3 in a row is an irrefutable fact

Fools & fanatics are always so certain and wise people are always so questioning
