Making meat!
«

March 18, 2012, 11:44:00 AM »
A couple of my brothers and I finally got around to processing our venison scraps from last Fall. I've butchered for years, but only started processing a few years ago. I really enjoy the process and it sure is nice to control the quality and taste of what you work so hard for during the Fall. I've been using store bought seasoning/cures and adjusting them a little with my own peppers and such.
I was wondering how many guys here do your own processing and if you have any tips or good recipes you wouldn't mind sharing?

That's impressive. I've been butchering my deer for years but have never made any sausage or jerkey yet. Maybe next season I'll get lucky to kill a deer.

Butchered awhile in school & always process all my own meat. But, it's been a long while since I made hamburger & sausage. Seeing yours reminds me of how much I like venison burgers. Wish I lived closer!

Jerry, we had a little over 100 lbs of sausage, bologna and sticks, which came from 3 deer. I have another 30lbs still in the freezer and was hoping to hear some good recipes to try out.

Wife and I gring most of our deer. WE make our own summer sausuage, you can get the ingredients and cure agent cheap,from The Home proccessor.com. WE use the grind in so many ways, and we also can deer, which is to die for. Just add chunks of deer to pint or quart cans, teaspoon of salt, and about 1/2 cup of water, seal and pressure cook for 90 minutes, 11# pressure or 70 minutes for pints. Great to make quick fajitas, chineese strir fry, or breakefast burritos!

WE process all our critters here too. Its part of the hunt to me and it saves a lot of money compared to what is charged now .
If I have a good year like I did this year I actually come out ahead as far as money goes to what is spent on hunting....But, the money spent on my new Howard Hill put me in the "hole" this year unless I run a cross a Buffalo in the swamp.lol.RC

Koger, I hadn't heard of the homeproccessor, thanks.....canning is something I'd like to try this year.
RC, I hear ya. I figured up the cost of the grinder, stuffer and other incidentals and it has paid for itself in 3 years. That was a nice sales pitch to the wife when I bought the equipement.

we can a great deal of ours, especially when the freezer is getting full! Meat falls apart when you cook it... I highly recommend it!
