After reading your earlier post I called around. No one around here will touch grind until January and told me they'll charge more than it is worth, but didn't give a number.
Their reasoning is they specialize in while animals and want to keep it that way
How long on average does it take for you to fully process your wild game?
Including any trimming, slicing, or grinding.
I'm about 8hr or so into breaking down two (2) deer and feel like it is taking me longer than it should.
I am admittedly very picking on trimming for the grind pile. I...
The following Saturday morning I managed to get back out in the woods on my own.
I sat a small field corner out of my saddle without much action the first hour.
I decided to put another layer on since I was getting little chilly.
after fighting my bino harness and vest i finally start to slip...
Opening weekend of Kentucky's modern firearm season finds me in Estes Park, CO.
Terrible dates to be gone, but I absolutely love the mountains.
Happiness levels seem to rise with the elevation.
We're here for a business trip, but I got to find a way to get outside. Even if just for a bit.
A...
Even though we felt our glassing stops were thorough, at some point we looked over 2 deer and jumped them out of their beds.
They only saw us, or part of us, since noise and smell were in our advantage.
We decide to fire up another calling/rattling sequence.
Then shortly after creep forward...
Maybe it was the pitboss I had, but I have a propane wood chip smoker now that way outperforms the pellet grill.
Better bark and flavor. I assumed it is because I have actual flames turning real wood into coals
At 9am my buddy Nathan (who will be key to the rest of this story) decided we would still hunt our way back to the vehicles.
There is a strip of timber 500 yards long and 100 yards wide that is parallel to the path back to the parking area. When conditions are right we'll sneak out through there...
New pattern coming out soon to replace it.
From what I've seen it is very similar but with less sharp lines.
Honestly will probably be a more effective camo
During that muzzleloader hunt I had a small buck walk right under me in the saddle, then work a licking branch right in front of me.
Managed to get somewhat of a video.
Starting as just another day during Kentucky's modern firearm deer season, ending with bloody hands, full coolers and big smiles!
Thanksgiving 2023 is one I'll store in the back of my mind.
I'm not the best storyteller and typing on a phone sure won't help, so please bear with me through errors...
2 beef cheeks and a smoked ham rolling.
Gonna let both soak up some smoke for several hours then the ham will get placed in a pan to braise and pull. Cheeks will get submerged in tallow and confit
Gents, what should I use this on?
Fermented garlic honey.
My first instinct is ribs, but I feel like there has to be more.
.... I do have a whole duck in the freezer 👀
