    You might want to buy a cow

    For me, I was fortunate to finally find a walk in cooler after years of watching for one to hang deer in we kill every year. Plan was to also kill a hog when needed. Hadn’t really planned on beef, but like everyone else can’t get in to butcher shop when needed. So now I also butcher our beef...

    1st time butchering beef

    I got 127 (or8?) pounds of burger, both briskets, a couple chuck roast, and one side of boneless ribeyes out of her.

    Simple back bacon smoked

    I’m grinding this one for burger and will have help on day 7&8 of hang time. Otherwise I’d start at minimum of 10-14 days. Sometimes you just have to make the best of things you can

    1st time butchering beef

    I have lots of back troubles and neck troubles plus a big round tire in front! Me and bending don’t get along. But hanging from the loader on tractor gets me worse when I get up to the shoulder,neck area of whatever I’m skinning for some reason? I think a cradle would be easier to have more pre...
