Superbowl Snacking

Ah yes, it’s that time of year when the winter blahs can kick in (for us Northerners) and we all want an excuse to get together and party. The Superbowl provides just that.

Some are too drunk to remember the half-time show. And some (like myself) enjoy the sport itself and spending time with family and friends.

Spicy Venison Sausage with Grilled Asparagus & Eggplant

Try this delicious treat on the bbq! We had a great lunch on the porch today.

Venison is a very lean meat. These sausages still had a bit of fat to be drained, but were far leaner than any other sausage I’ve grilled before. The sausages need longer to cook, so get them on the grill first.
