Pork fat vs beef fat

[Ronin75]

I have been using pork fat for summer sausage and Italian sausage for the past 5 years. Today I met a restaurant owner who swears that beef fat adds more flavor to home made sausage. I’m looking for comments from anyone who has first hand experience adding beef fat. Thanks

yes I used to strictly use pork fat but have since switched to beef fat. I have used it with deer, elk, bear and antelope. I am usually making burger meat or ground breakfast sausage and italian sausage. This is all loose ground, not stuffed in casings.

As for flavor I definitely would agree it is better than pork. The fat from beef which is red meat goes well with the red meat of wild game.
