Antelope trim is an ideal cut for making antelope sausages or your own ground antelope.
Antelopes have meat that is very lean and similar to
venison and elk, but they are most closely related to domestic goats. This breed is Antelope Nilgai, originally from India. With about nine times less fat than lean ground beef, and less cholesterol than even venison, antelope trim is a good alternative to conventional meats.
Keep trim frozen until you're ready to use it, then thaw the entire block. We recommend using it to make a bunch of game sausages at once. Once turned into bulk sausage or sausage links it can be refrozen.

Grind this trim thawed but cold using a meat grinder or attachment on your mixer. Mix with complimentary flavors of your choice and either use as sausage patties or pack the sausage into sausage casings to make links.
Antelope pairs well with flavors like cinnamon, berries, mustard, robust red wines, port & brandy, rosemary and juniper berries. For spicy sausages, consider adding ground dried peppers.
