Folks, I'd like to have some venison made into summer sausage this fall.

Without regard for the price per pound, who have you used in Utah, that I can take 20 or 30 pounds of venison to, to have made into summer sausage, of various flavors. I'd like your suggestions based on your personal taste buds.

I'm willing to drive to either end of the State of Utah, for delivery and pick up.

I can have it made locally but I'm not very happy with the kind of product that I'm getting back from the local provider. (He's having it by a third party, so it's no reflection on his work.)

Thanks

Thanks gents. I'll call them both and get the details.

Anyone else's opinion would be very much appreciated.

I called both Faughtons and Lacorti's today.

Faughtons, in Evanson, does not make summer sausage, only salami. I want summer sausage not salami however, for those that maybe interested, the folllowing might be helpful.

They require a minimum of a 10 pound order. We provide 7 lb. venison, Faughton's addeds 3 lbs of fat and your get back 10 lb of salami, that you must keep frozen until you're going to use it.

They have two kinds, Regular Flavor for $35.50 for the 10 pound minimum, and Jalapanio with Cheddar for $44.50 for the 10 pound minimum.

They have never had anyone ship raw venison to them for processing. Also, the original Mother and Father that owned and operated the business retired last year, someone else is operating it now, not sure if it's family or some one other than family.

Lacorti's, in Fredonia, make summer sausage. I didn't ask if they made salami too.

They did not say they require a minimum order.

They added beef to keep it from being too dry. They didn't say the ratio of venison to beef fat. If you give them 1.5 pounds of venison, they will give you back a 1.25 pound stick of summer sausage.

The price is $5 per stick (1.25 pounds) for the regular.
The price is $7.00 per stick for any of the other flavors. (1.25 pounds)

They do a regular summer sausage that has a little chili added and has a mild chili flavor. They also do a Jalapanio and a Jalapanio with Cheddar, Black Pepper, and other flavors, at the request of the customer.

They will take venison that is shipped to them. Over night freight and proper packing of the raw material must be made to avoid spoiling during shipment.

That's if for now. Thanks for the referrals folks, anyone with other recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Bingham's in Morgan. They did a desert sheep for me last year (it' turned out really good) and my antelope is ready now...
They don't have a lot of choices in summer sausage, (I think chorizo and the jalape?o cheese is awesome)!
I think there's a lot more flavors in brats?
Good luck!

I have checked each of the locations that have been suggested, in Idaho, Utah and Wyoming. I haven't found anyone that makes summer sausage that does not require refrigeration.

What I was looking for was something like the HIckory Farms product that can be set out for a few months. Is far as I can tell, nobody makes one with enough preservatives to be safe outside a fridge or a freezer for long term storage.

Thanks everybody, for your input and help with the suggestions.
