When I use to hunt out of a camp it was their thing to take it to a butcher in town. Since I left that camp I took one deer to my local butcher and he charged me $60.00. I asked him how much for a roll of paper and he told me $15.00. Best $15.00 dollars I've ever spent.

Now not only do I cut my own, I've picked up a grinder and a sausage stuffer. So I make my own burger as well as sausage. Even tried my own sausage from scratch this year. They turned out ok but the recipie's need to be tweeked for my tastes. I've tried sausage kits. They were easy and turned out great. But they cost more. Added a dehydrator and now I do jerky as well.
