3-5 rolls of salami

- 4 lbs elk meat, ground

- 1⁄2 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 1 teaspoon onion salt
- 6 tablespoons meat curing salt

- In a small bowl combine the rest of the ingredients. Using your hands, add the spice mixture to the meat mixture. Mix well.
- Shape the meat into rolls about 2.5 inches in diameter. Wrap each roll in foil (heavy duty foil), closing tightly down the center and on the ends.

- Put the pan of meat on the middle shelf at the center of the oven.
- Bake for 2 hours.
- Remove the foil and put the meat rolls on the rack to drain and cool. The meat will still be fairly pink both on the outside and inside.
- When cool, wrap again in foil. Can be kept in the refrigerator for about 10 days or in the freezer for about 1 month.
