    Ropeing A Deer

    I just woke my girlfriend up i was laughing so hard. I too have met a somewhat similar fate. While hunting a doe began to eat off the bush i was hiding in so i tackled her. Big mistake i ended up on the bottom of the pile drinking a toast of my own blood to the health of the deer. Either way...

    Just plain Salmon???

    I like sweet salmon, Indian Candy. First i make a dry rub. 4/1 mix brown sugar to salt with coarse black pepper (eyeball) and some grated ginger and garlic (fresh). I cut slits top to bottom on the fillet about 1 1/2 inches apart and gently rub mixture onto the fish and into the cracks. Put...

    Turducken w/ pix

    I definitely keep the breast attached. I was trying (poorly) to explain for others that the breastbone would be the last point of contact when deboning birds. Next time i make one i will make my sausage leaner to accomodate the duck skin. That's a great idea!

    Turducken w/ pix

    Sirloin tip roast

    This is not a tri tip it is a short cut sirloin tip roast and has had the bottom sirloin removed. Many butcher shops do not carry a long cut sirloin tip because it needs to be removed from the hip before you do the primal cut to separate the striploin from the top sirloin. Also when it is cut...

    Novice Sausage maker-What to look for in a stuffer.

    The type of stuffer you buy has a lot to do with what type of sausage you make. Those plastic gear presses are great for salami and dinner sausage but anything smaller can become a problem. If you want to do peperoni sticks and breakfast sausage you might prefer a stuffer with more than one...
