congrats on your first bear!

Thank yall! Got the pelt up at the taxidermist now for a rug and just got the meat back. I also kept the fat. Looking forward to rendering it down and cooking with it this year.

I process the deer I take but was unsure of the best way to do a bear so had the processor do it. Backstraps sliced thin, kept 1 roast then ground the rest, had it split between ground, brats and Jalapeno and cheddar summer sausage.

Good for you, would love to join sometimes.

How heavy is that bear? It looks really young though.
