RE: Am I really done?
If you need some help thinning out the herd, I'll be glad to help ya:D. Out of 8 sits last week I seen 3 deer. Granted I've killed 6, I can't buy a deer here in the last week. The orange army surrounds my properties and the deer are on edge.

ORIGINAL: Vito1 First, kudos to you for donating the meat instead of wasting it. Can the person you give the deer to pay for processing? Seems like a small price for all that venison. The price for processing in my area averages about $60/deer. Not sure what it is by you. If I didn't/couldn't hunt, I would gladly pay the $60. |
RE: Am I really done?
Well sir you just need yourself a meat grinder and a jerky gun, they will pay for themselves, and it never gets old!:)

RE: Am I really done?
ORIGINAL: davidmil I'm done, because I still have a cold and the season ends Sunday. Besides that, I have 2 in the freezer. More than I need. Last night our power went off for several hours. I started going into my panic mode about loosing it all.4 or 5 years ago we were without power in Maryland for 7 days and I did loose it all. |

RE: Am I really done?
Ya know, what I've started doing? I skin the deer and cut the meat off in the largest possible chunks that I can... then (because I don't have a meat slicer) out comes the electric filet knife. The big chunks turn into 1/4" thick strips and into the 24 hour marinade they go. From there they go into the dehydrater ($20 at Wal Mart) 5 hours later I have jerky. 40lbs of meat yields about 10lbs of jerky, it's much easier to store and you can even eat in the turkey blind:D:D:D

RE: Am I really done?
I can't imagine taking a critter that I killed to someone else to prepare so I could eat it...
All men need to know how to skin and butcher game...They also need to know how to cook it... btw...If you are out of freezer space, there is always canning... |
