Instructions

  1. 1 Combine brown sugar, curing mixture, black pepper, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, MSG, mace, and mustard; sprinkle over venison in a large mixing tub. Mix spices into venison, then add liquid smoke; mix by hand until well combined, 3 to 5 minutes. Place into a non-reactive glass or plastic container, cover, and refrigerate for 24 hours. Prepare casings according to instructions below (Cook's Note).
  2. 2 To stuff, cut off a 2-foot (60-centimeter) piece of casing, pinch out water, and tie a knot at one end of casing using twine. Fill casing with venison mixture to within 4 inches of open end using a sausage stuffer or large funnel. Tie open end near sausage mixture, so mixture is firm. Tie two sausage ends together to form a circle. Repeat with remaining casings, venison mixture, and twine. Place bologna in a large roasting pan.
  3. 3 Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
  4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven until bologna reaches an internal temperature of 180 degrees F (82 degrees C), about 2 hours. Cool, then refrigerate until cold.
  5. 5 To serve, cut through casing lengthwise; peel off and discard casing. Slice bologna into thin slices. Bologna may be kept tightly wrapped in the freezer; defrost in the refrigerator before serving.

  1. 1 Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Pour in beaten eggs and cook, without stirring, until firmed up. Flip eggs over and cook for an additional 20 seconds to firm the other side. Set egg pancake aside to cool, then slice into thin strips.
  2. 2 Heat remaining vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Stir in cabbage and carrot; cook for 2 minutes to wilt. Add pork, bamboo shoots, mushroom, green onions, soy sauce, salt, sugar, and MSG; continue cooking until vegetables soften, about 6 minutes. Stir in sliced egg, then spread the mixture out onto a pan, and refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour.
  3. 3 To assemble the egg rolls: Place a wrapper onto your work surface with one corner pointing towards you. Place about 3 tablespoons of cooled filling in a heap onto the bottom third of the wrapper. Brush a little beaten egg white onto the top two edges of the wrapper, then fold the bottom corner over the filling and roll firmly to the halfway point. Fold the left and right sides snugly over the egg roll, then continue rolling until the top corners seal the egg roll with the egg white. Repeat with remaining egg roll wrappers, covering finished egg rolls with plastic wrap to keep from drying out.
  4. 4 Heat about 6 inches of oil in a wok or deep-fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  5. 5 Fry egg rolls 3 or 4 at a time until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
