Notes
- Make it even hotter — Although the paprika and the red pepper flakes tip should do the job, if you are looking for something different, maybe you should consider adding a splash of hot sauce to the mix.
- The fat — If the ground venison you purchased came with the natural fat, then there is no need to use bacon fat or lard.
