Seal all dough seams with a light brushing of egg. Brush egg over top of crust. Bake at 350* until cooked at desired doneness. Medium is approximately 25 minutes.


        Wild Game Summer Sausage
        5 lb. wild game (venison, elk, etc.)
        2 1/2 lb. lean pork
        1/2 lb. Morton Tender Quick
        1 clove garlic -- crushed
        4 T. black pepper

        2 T. sugar
        1 T. whole white pepper
        Cut wild game and pork into small cubes and store in freezer at 5 degrees or less for 20 days. This is to kill any disease that might be present in the meat. Thaw meat and run through medium blade of food grinder. Thoroughly mix the seasonings into the meat and run through grinder using fine blade. Let sausage set in refrigerator for 4 days. Stuff into sausage casings. Sausage may be hung to dry and used or may be lightly
        smoked to enhance flavor. Summer sausage will keep without refrigeration.
