“Mule Deer Armadillo Eggs”

Armadillo eggs are a time-honored traditional appetizer of the Southwest. At the Mule Deer Foundation, we like to think of this appetizer as a great use of the excess mule deer grind left over at the end of the butchering day. For this Mule Deer Armadillo Eggs recipe we like to mix in 30% pork fat with our grind but whatever you have left over after your brats, or your summer sausage mix can work just as well. In fact, the more unique your blend of fat content and spices the better this appetizer becomes truly yours.
