Today, The Bearded Butchers are making deer bacon! This venison bacon recipe isn't for the faint of heart, but it's a lot of fun to make and the same process can be applied to any lean meat or game meat. The deer bacon recipe we used today uses a number of different projects that we have available in our store along with a wealth of knowledge for free, right here on UA-cam! Follow along as Scott and Seth take another animal from field to table and show everyone the right way to use every bit of every animal that they harvest.
16:00 - Scott's Hot Tip
Full Venison Bacon Recipe:
1) Mix 12.5lb venison trim with 12.5lb pork trim for 25lb meat total (meat should be as cold as possible so keep in the fridge until you're ready to start).
2) Mix meat together with maple seasoning kit and cure (If you want to avoid sugar, add 7oz salt instead of the maple seasoning). Feel free so add some other things here as well like our jalapeno powder or hot or cajun seasoning for some heat or some of our diced fruit for a sweet and fruity option.
3) Grind seasoning, meat, and cure mixture twice. Coarse grind first with a 10 and a finer grind second with a 4.5. Check out MEAT! for a grinder, we recommend 1.5hp because it's the only one with enough power to run the mixer too. meat-your-maker.pxf.io/doBmjq @meat2936
4) Mix the meat after the grind. Check out MEAT! again for a mixer meat-your-maker.pxf.io/gb7kWO. Mix forward for 4 minutes, then in reverse again for 4 minutes. Add some ICE COLD water during the mixing. Two 16oz bottles of ice cold water (32oz total) should be enough.
5) Form the loafs in lined pans. Coat the loafs with 🧂 Cinnamon Swirl bit.ly/3Lbop3F or Black 🧂 bit.ly/3MRa9hA. Blends with sugar (Black, Cinnamon Swirl, or Hollywood) are the best for bacon.
6) Cover and refrigerate overnight.
7) Lay down some butcher paper bit.ly/3A5WbAQ to keep your processing area clean. Flip the pans and dump out the formed meat slabs onto some smoking screens like these amzn.to/3r2aBgP. Season the exposed sides that hadn't been previously seasoned.
8) Get the slabs on the smoker at 185 degrees F. Check out Grilla's end of summer sale grillagrills.pxf.io/6bZL0K for a CRAZY price on a grill with 160# of pellets! @GrillaGrills. (You can TURN ON a GRILLA from your PHONE!).
9) We smoked for 180 degrees F for 4 hours then stepped up to 200 degrees until the bacon hit internal temperature of 150 degrees F. Pull them off of the smoker for about an hour to rest, then put them in the fridge overnight to firm up.
10) Slice the bacon on a MEAT! deli slicer meat-your-maker.pxf.io/zaMEAr.
11) Cook to perfection and enjoy! Check out the MEAT! kitchen knife set to finish everything up meat-your-maker.pxf.io/0JqWgR.
12) Vacuum seal the rest of the bacon (if there's any left) with the MEAT! vacuum sealers meat-your-maker.pxf.io/b3Xx6v

My local game processing shop does deer bacon like this. It’s phenomenal. Don’t have to fry it, can eat it cold like lunch meat. I like putting it in a wrap with some horseradish sauce 👨🍳
My grandpa owned a butcher shop for a long time and continued to process meats for years after. Growing up, his venison bacon was my favorite and I still make it to this day even after his passing. His butcher shop was known for his variety of bacons so it is nice to see more butchers take in these varieties of styles of bacon!
As a father of 4, my favorite part of these videos is seeing how proud you both are of your kids and including them in the videos. Can't get enough of that! You both are awesome. Can't wait to use the diy kits on the way to me.
Thank you!
Man the kits are really pricey. I wanted to try them too.

Sweet and meat, sweet and spicy doesn't mix. I don't see the obsession it should be illegal to make the mix discussing!
Favorite lines: Faith, Family, Food! We're livin' our best life Bro. Yep, Bearded Butchers Makin Bacon...a classic.
I remember growing up and my dad doing this, just with moose. Some of the best bacon I’ve ever had
You guys are doing a great job. I'm your age, and i can remember my mom telling me to ride my bike to see Fred, the meat cutter. Nice man. And I'd leave the shop with dinner, shank bone for a dime to give to my dog.
I love how you guys interact with each other, a long with the other members of your family!! Always makes my heart smile watching your videos!! Take care and God Bless you all!!
Love the wholesome comment, Mike! Thank you!
I've been a fan of you guys for years. I'm getting very close to harvesting, growing, and preserving my own food which will be a whole new adventure. I'll soon be a customer, not only a subscriber.
This is a genuine God given skill/love for bacon lovers.kudos bearded butchers
Ordered your kit and made 5 lbs of elk bacon. Turned out fantastic. Looking forward to making more in the near future, Thanks for sharing.
Rock on! Glad to hear it went well, John!
We’ve just recently bought a “ meat” grinder and luv it..we’re going all in with the jerky making from your previously video.. now the bacon is going to be a must ..as a older gentleman, watching you guys interact together makes me miss my family,which used to be quite large.. so the little woman and I , have ourselves and 4 dogs to make these products for.. thx for showing use they way
I've been watching you guys since the beginning! I love how you guys are trying to get people processing at home. Your videos just keep getting better. Awesome Grilla Grill. I've had the Chimp for 3 years.
You guys are incredible. So educational and done with so much love!
when we make venison bacon for BLT sandwiches we use a bread loaf pan to form it before placing it into the smoker, after its smoked and sliced its perfect size for the sandwich
I am speechless 😶 just absolutely amazing ❤ you guys are living your best life. Man those sandwiches at the end had my mouth watering 🔥
I've been making it for years! Now I'm going to have to try your maple seasoning. Love the videos, keep them coming!
You guys are meat scientists as well as butchers. You constantly push the envelope and challenge yourselves to go even beyond what others do on a regular basis. You teach as well as show by example. Thanks Guys
Love your channel,your spices are totally awesome.Great content for butchering.You guys have your stuff together.
My son and I made some last year for the first time, it was pretty good. Yet another way to process your deer. Thanks for the video.
Very excited for the DIY kits. Watching your channel has me thinking I might finally get my hunting license and go out during deer season. Homemade venison bratwurst? Yes please, and I think my friends would enjoy them too 🙂
Okay I gotta try this, but I swear that my ears perked up when Seth mentioned making smokies using the maple seasoning! 🤤
I used your DIY maple bacon kit. I've been making bacon for about 4 years now. Your product was great and easy to use. I did add liquid smoke to it. Before I would use real Maple syrup in my bacon, but it never did get enough of that maple flavor. This kit works great.
Those bacon looks superb. I am sure, they taste superb as well. You guys ROCK.
I can feel the growth happening with your content. Anticipation for what’s to come is at the extreme. Another quality video of the Bearded Butchers. Love it fam 💯
Awesome! Thank you!
We're excited too! Thanks for watching!!
Great job Logan!! And to the Bearded Butchers, you knocked it out of the park!
Thank you for sharing this and making it available for us non commercial folks. I watched the whole video and had to place an order. Can't wait to get some venison bacon made up and shared either family/friends. Awesome stuff gents! Cheers.

Why would anyone complain about the gloves? Seriously, I'd be more concerned if you guys weren't wearing nitrile gloves. I started using them when I apprenticed and I'll never stop. The feedback is wonderful and I like to keep my hands clean.
yeah idk either who wants to have nasty greasy meat hands all day?
If the product is for personal use it’s kind of wasteful, not that big of a deal when doing large batches but there’s people who use gloves just to form some ground beef into burgers or to dice a bit of garlic
Only real problem is using a water bottle instead of just taking a measuring cup
@@dantethunderstone2118 It is however, safer. And they're making a family sized supply. If I was making enough for multi families, personal use or not, I'd still glove up. It's not as if the gloves themselves are expensive, and Whitefeather can probably get them even cheaper than I do.
@@SableDrakon more it’s bad for the environment since they can’t be recycled, with a large quantity like this then yes you should wear gloves (altho not necessary since it’s for personal use) but there are times where they’re essentially just making a roast or a steak or something but they still wear gloves which is very unnecessary
I use gloves for personal use too but not every time I’m handling meat because it really isn’t necessary since soap exists
@@dantethunderstone2118 Perhaps you don't care about your family having safe food to eat and not having the house contaminated with e.coli and salmonella to spread🙄. We do. Personal use has absolutely nothing in the world to do with safe food practices🙄. Good luck keeping the elderly and toddlers in your life alive🙄
I just gave birth and have been binge watching your videos while up at night with the newborn. Everything looks delicious! Husband got his first deer this year and, although I canned it all as chunks and sausages, I’m looking for some fun snacky things to make next time!
My Butcher Out here in Philly started doing it last year …. Kids and wife LOVEEEEE IT!!
I’m from Scotland. Love watching you guys. Seeing how you both enjoy your family’s and especially your hunting..
That's a sweet looking recipe!
Love all your videos. I've learned so much about butchering beef, pork, and deer from you guys. Looking forward for more videos and trying some of your products and merchandise.
Gotta Love Them Beards!!
Good luck, Michael!
Thanks so much for all your great content, I’ve learned so many valuable things from watching you guys. Just want to say thanks
Very nice to hear that, Eric! We're glad to know that you're getting tons of values on our videos 👌
Such a great video educational and you can learn from it and some truly important what family and life is really all about great jobs guys!
Actually pumped that I can get all the cures seasonings and casings I need from you folks going forward. Thank you!
Thanks! And do feel free to drop more suggestions on how we can further help you guys!
@@TheBeardedButchers where can I get those plastic tub covers?
Spent alot of years living off venison, never thought about bacon.Great idea.Have a wonderful day.From Alabama,God bless!
I don’t know if I’ve ever watched a UA-cam video with my mouth watering the whole freaking video….Awesome!!
Another great video my local butcher in Brandon Wisconsin has been making venison bacon for number years and is by far excellent way to use trim meat
Yes your cat is great love watching your videos mate love your your end all the best
Thank you so much 😀
You guys always do a great job. Thanks for another video.
Oh my! That just sounds fantastic!!
Great idea. Looks like I’ll be putting the rest of last season’s venison into a batch of “bacon”. Thanks for the idea guys. Looks great.
*The Bearded Butchers* Knocked it outa the park on this one fellas, had me drooling, lolooo. Thank-you so much for taking the time to show us how its done. God Bless.
You guys are awesome! All of your videos have great content and the delivery makes them fun to watch.
Glad you like them, Jeff!
Yet another informative and mouthwatering video! Awesome topic too Guys! I have a couple of buddies who famously hunt here in Ohio and I'm sending this video their way. Quite sure they will be interested too as they enjoy doing different things with their catches. The Presentation is what nails these videos for me. Family orientated with wholesome vibes that remind me of growing up with my siblings and Parents. I have no doubt that their are Fans who like me, consider You All as Family too. Cheers From down the road in COW-lumbus...MOO! Cheers, Blessings and Keep Strutting Everyone In The Bearded Butchers Community!
I need some of this sent to my house in Florida! My mouth is salivating like crazy!
I am super excited about your DIY line. Hopefully a successful harvest this fall and I will be all over that.
Good luck!
what a great idea, would never have considered making bacon out of ground product ! I had to grab a cold beer to drink while watching you guys eat the bacon, wow. Awesome, will definitely try this, keep up the great vids , cheers from NZ
Our pleasure, Lloyd!
Awesome job guys! Congrats on your channel. I learn something every time I watch an episode, thanks 😊
My mouth is watering the venison bacon looks so good.
I just made my own bacon thanks to your tutorial, turned out amazing! Best of luck to you and your family.
That's awesome, Mark! Hope you and your family loved it. Venison bacon for the win! 🥓🥓🥓
One suggestion for your DIY kits. Make the kits for smaller batches. Instead of 25lbs. Maybe 12lbs.
Going to try that! That bacon looks amazing. Thank you for sharing!!
That's awesome! Hope you enjoy!
Looks excellent. We processed two pigs today and made some sausage. The trimmed fat goes in the freezer and is waiting on a whitetail. Gonna make this bacon!
That cat is so adorable
Love you guys
Fantastic videos y'all! So much respect for the safety culture y'all is promoting absolutely top notch!
WOW! This sounds divine guys! Will have to give this a try! We are hoping for an elk and deer this year so this would be a wonderful addition to the meat use. THANKS for all the links and helpful details. Best to you
Woohoo! Good luck!
@@TheBeardedButchers thanks friend!
You guys are awesome. Loved watching the video keep it up.
I made 18 pounds, 3 pans. Tweaked each one, jalapeños in 1, cinnamon swirl another, and red pepper flakes & cajun seasoning in the other. Outstanding! so versatile too. Even made a pizza using the bacon pieces. Wonderful po boy sandwiches! Thanks for sharing!
That bacon looked incredible. I know it tasted FANTASTIC. You guys ROCK!
No, Michelle -- YOU guys rock! 🤘
Thank you for your continuous support!

I made deer bacon for the first time this year using the LEM kit. I added a lot of pepper to it and made pepper bacon. It was awesome. Now I think I want to try your sugar maple🤔🤔🤔👍
Love the smile on Logans face knowing that is a deer he harvested himself! We poor folk over in Rittman have to get the hand mixer out for this, we don't have the expensive attachment like you Creston folk lol great video fellas
Put a drill on it 🤷♂️
Love this!!! Love y’all’s channel!
Meat your maker should sponsor you guys and let you give out a discount to their products! That would be awesome. I’ve been looking into getting a setup for making sausages and now bacon is on the list. Awesome recipes my bearded brothers. Keep up the awesome work. I’ll be buying your product shortly once I start buying the equipment. Thanks guys and keep the video rollin!
When he bit it and chuckled lol that said enough!! Good video!

You guys GET IT! Thank you
Great job that looks delicious 👌👍
Can't wait to try this !
Faith, family, food- Love it!
Hi..and yes and Amen
We have been making moose bacon for over 20 years. Same process you demonstrate, just different seasoning mix. I do not use a cake pan. We used disposable aluminum loaf pan with wax paper between the loaf pan and ground meat.
These people seem like great people.
Man am I glad I watched this video. There is a butcher east of St. Louis I take some deer meat to and have them make it into bacon. I went out to look in the freezer in the garage and found a couple pounds from last year I forgot about. I know what I’m having for breakfast! Its so good I make the two hour trip twice just to get some. I think they say they use 2 pork to 1 deer on theirs. Not sure but it looks like they make it in a bologna shape and then flatten it a little into an oval then cut it to make into half moon kind of shapes. I’ve cooked it on a griddle and on a grill. Just be careful on the grill if you leave too long it will catch fire and burn to nothing. Love your vids as usual. Really nice to see how things are done. I may try the deer bacon myself next time. Thanks guys!
Nice job
Impressive you can make such a good product on the first try!
Yes you can!
Oh just one bite, PLEASE!! 🤤
Congratulations on the DIY line. I cant wait to order some sausage making stuff and can't wait to order that maple
Hope you enjoy it, Tony!
Great content... Looks delicious!
looks like a lot of work but dang every step my mouth was salivating. might have to try this one day and stock up the freezer.
I've been making venison bacon for years using some seasoning from another website. Will definitely be trying yours out this fall.
Sounds great!
OMG I litterally am getting a smoker for Christmas FINALLY!!! And after making elk snack stick with your DIY kit dehydrated not smoked 🤤 so delicious I am totally gonna make this! We also made deer brats with your diy kit! Absolutely top notch quality and taste, ordering more and gonna be making this after Christmas!
That is awesome! Merry Christmas!
Dang! I'm sold..i adore bacon..i've got to try my own now..never thought of this
