Deer hunting BS thread

We make a shit ton of sausage, lol..

Brats



Fresh homemade loose hot Italian sausage



One of my favorites- Goose breast Pastrami- done the old fashioned way, brined 10 days then cold smoked.


My sons favorite- homemade scrapple (or pan haus)


Back when me and my neighbors butchered hogs in WV


Smoked venison kielbasa

 

This had me rolling..

Mouth shot

 

Only good coyote...is a dead one

 

How long do y'all let meat sit in the freezer before you won't eat it? I ran out of freezer room last year and shot a late season doe and took it to the in-laws. Well, they haven't eaten any of it, so I'm confiscating it.

 

i'm still eatin deer meat from January, but its vacuum sealed. I would say as long as its stored properly 2 years is prolly fine, after that I might start letting the dogs have it. I have also had some that I just put in freezer bags before that was starting to get funky at about a year ish

 

you should be able to see/smell if its freezerburnt

Jerky is an option for almost gone meat lol

 

About a year-ish with a vacuum sealer. Two if the seal is really tight. If I notice a bag doesn't seal tightly often I will double bag/seal it.

 

Got this a couple weeks ago, and my buddy got the european mount done for me. First deer ive ever killed. Im hooked im making jerky as i write this.

We've got a lot of grind this year. Over 50 lbs bagged and sealed ready to go (230lbs total venison meat this year).

Will be making some of this-


And this-

 

Sucks your first ever was such a monster...you've got high expectations now!

 

This year's deer:




Plus a couple of girls that were hanging outside my blind last year, for 'artsy-ness'
Same doe is there every year with a yearling.

 

I showed my boss and he said it would be a good time to quit, go out on a high note.

 

Well i was just planning on killing a doe to put some meat in the freezer, but he showed up.

 

yeah I'm sure ur super disappointed you didn't get to kill a doe and had to settle

 

Lol I was like a child I was so excited. I have to give credit to a doe tho if one hadnt came in i never would have got him. She came right in front of me and he followed. Thank God for the rut.

 

its the most wonderful time of the year

 

That's how I got mine this year. He chased a pair of does past me.
Apparently the thought of sex makes the males of all species do stupid things, lol.
