Game Processing Pig ,Deer, Moose and Elk

Bruce — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 15:52:49 +0000

Hi I wanted to have an article on game processing using and explaining the tools. After hunting 30 years and processing most all my own game I wanted to share what I found worked for me. The tools I used were just what ever we could get or already had in the kitchen. Most families in the country had a meat saw for cutting their beef or pork. it is also something they would not lend out for many reasons.

Click Here

Most used the Old Hickory butcher knives. The reason was they were easy to work with cheap to replace and easy to sharpen. Truth is they still are great knives for the price, for all the same reasons.

I now have changed to the Milwaukee one handed reciprocating saw as a meat saw for most uses.Get the right blades, the longer blades with course teeth.

click Here

I did not have the reciprocating saw until the last 15 years but I sure wished they made the one handed saw for a lot of reasons. I would take this out camping now just for every thing. It is light easy to use and can cut anything. I have cut steel with it and it works great for meat.

I know for cutting deer a hand saw is easy enough. When I started looking down the spine of a moose and thinking ripping it in half then doing t-bone and chops you are looking of two sides seven feet long. I was thinking it looked like a full days cutting with a hand saw. With a good reciprocating saw one hour tops. This is doing the game processing at home in the kitchen or in the shop if we had one clean enough.

We used a hand grinder until after the first moose. I had decided that was more ignorance than I could Bear. We had no money for a commercial grinder. What we did have was a lot of redneck junk to salvage parts from. I went to garage sales until I found a Porkert 10 hand grinder. I took the handle off and chucked it. I went and found the right size v-belt pulley off the back of an old clothes dryer. I rigged it onto the grinder where the handle was. It took some imagination but it worked well. The first motor I used came from a wash machine then the best power source I could afford. It was one third horse power not really enough but it worked. I am not sure what old car or shed we found a short v-belt I just know we never bought anything like that. I made a box to mount this on out of two by six board in about a two foot square. I used a finished one side three quarter plywood board for the top. This worked because it is still strong enough and I had to cut a slot into the plywood for the dryer pulley to get it to set on top. Did I tell you I used my power saw to cut the slot for the pulley? Well I thought You would have guessed!!

The total cost was the time it took to find the junk and build it. We ground over a ton of burger with this motor before I found a one horse electric motor. Then it pulled to hard and killed the grinder which was never really made to be motorised. By this time twenty years later I had built three meat grinders. I had one stolen and finally conceded the job to the local butcher. My butcher has an excellent set of sausage recipes so it killed the idea of doing our own. That and the fact I am getting old and lazy.

I would now set up with a commercial grinder like the LEM product one horse. The reason for the size is it would last and is a product that you can get all the attachments for sausage making. It has a high cost but you can get it back just processing your own cuts of beef or pork. Just buying the cheaper cuts and grinding them would save every time. One other idea is you could process your own dog food with a machine like this if you wanted . I am going to add to this post as I remember all the stuff we used.

By Bruce : PS If you have any ideas on building stuff that worked well use the contact and I can post them for others.

Pig Processing – Fill Your Freezer

Pig Processing – Fill Your Freezer

With Different Types of Sausage

meat saw

Pigs are not always the game of choice for many hunters, but in recent years the pig population has gotten to be a real problem for farmers and land owners. Pig processing has become a lot more popular lately for that reason alone. For those of you who don’t know it, wild pigs are very destructive. They root up the foliage making a terrible mess and leave lots of holes in the ground. This really causes a problem for farmers and ranchers. Cattle get injured by stepping in the holes, and the farmers lose their crops. The answer is for more hunters to kill pigs for food and to help balance nature out a bit.

Click Here

The good news is that a pig produces some really great meat. They supply us with bacon, chops, roast, sausages, and much more. The popularity of killing pigs isn’t as great as that of a deer or elk, because there is no trophy rack of horns to display. Hunters do love to show off a bit, and who can blame them! And in most states there is no particular season for pigs, which means you can hunt them anytime you like. Be sure and check the laws in your state before doing any pig processing of your own.

Pig Processing For Sausages You Will Love

Summer Sausage

There is nothing better than slicing off a piece of summer sausage and placing it on a cracker when you are fishing, hunting, or just have a get together at home. To make the best summer

Click Here

sausage you need to make it with deer and pork, so save some of that deer you shot for when you start pig processing. You can also add chopped up cheese and jalapeno peppers into the mix, for a great spicy sausage. After tasting this, pig processing may be a priority for next year!

Click Here

German Sausage

German sausage is great for adding to beans, making hotdogs, or just eating as a stand-a-lone meat. When you purchase your seasoning kit for the summer sausage and the German sausage you will be supplied with the casings the sausage is stored in. Our best suggestion is to purchase an entire kit with everything you need for pig processing.

Click Here

Breakfast Sausage

Breakfast sausage can be made from just the pork, or you can mix deer with it. Either way, it makes a fantastic breakfast sausage. You can buy the seasonings for breakfast sausage, but you won’t need any casings. You will need to either store the breakfast sausage in freezer bags or purchase some plastic storage sleeves.

Click Here

Pig processing is not any harder than processing any kind of wild game and you will find that you love having this extra type of meat in your freezer. Most of the seasonings and casings come from Lem Products and are easy to get your hands on. Just remember if you want to cure meat, you can use the Morton Tender Quick, which is sold at many grocery stores on the salt isle.

Wild Game – Food or Trophy?

Bruce — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 22:00:42 +0000

Wild Game – Food or Trophy?

Wild game is animals that roam free in the countryside. The wild game, which can be fowl or four legged animals, co-exist in the wilderness with no rules or regulations. They don’t have anyone telling them they can’t mate with their sister or cousin, and this can cause problems down the line. If hunters were stopped from hunting in season, the animals would breed among their own clan more often and soon deformities and disease would flourish until they were all dead. We certainly don’t want this. It is important to keep a balance in nature, and that is where hunters can really help.

Click Here

click Here

There are certain seasons for hunting wild game, and for good reasons. One, to save the breed of animal from the reasons mentioned above, and two, to preserve a species and not have them become extinct. By allowing deer, elk, dove, or any other wild game, to be killed only during a certain season each year will protect them from these issues.

Hunting Wild Game Is Not Bad

Hunting for wild game is good for the species, and good for humans. For those who love killing your own food, wild game can furnish you with a large variety of meals. And, killing and processing your own wild game will save you money you would normally spend at the grocery store. In today’s economy, saving money is extremely important to most families.

Hunting is not bad, even though the irresponsibility of some outdoorsmen sometimes portray hunters in a bad light. The truth is that most hunters are very safety conscious, and know what they are doing. They just love the entire hunting experience and being in the great outdoors!

Types of Wild Game

There are too many types of wild game to mention, and what kinds you have all depends on what country you live in. In the United States, wild game is made up of different types of birds, such as quail, turkey, or dove. And for the four-legged kind of wild game there is moose, elk, deer, hogs, and many others.

In other countries you could be hunting for antelope, or kangaroo! Wild game is in every country and it needs to be hunted to keep the quantity of animals under control.

Don’t feel bad if you want to shoot that 10 point buck for the horns next time, because you are doing nature a favor. If you don’t like to eat the meat, please donate it to a mission, or give the meat to a friend. You will feel good that you helped to feed someone else, and that trophy rack will certainly look good hanging inside you home.

The next time you go hunting; go out knowing you are helping the species to survive, by doing your part. It does sound strange that you are helping them to survive, by killing some of them, but it’s a true fact. See how many types of wild game you can add to your kitchen table this year, and make it a family tradition. Hunting wild game is one of the greatest sports of all times, so never apologize for being a hunter!

Processing Meat For Healthy Eating

Bruce — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 19:24:14 +0000

Processing Meat For Healthy Eating

Click here

Processing meat is something that many hunters do, and they don’t do it just for the fun of it. In fact, processing meat is a lot of hard work, but the benefits are well worth it. When you process your own wild game you have some advantages over retail shoppers.

Those advantages consist of lowering your grocery bill, getting meat free of preservatives, and having meat fresh from the land. That in itself is economically beneficial and health safe.

Click here

Families processing meat dates back to prehistoric times, although their methods were crude indeed. They tried things such as preserving with salt or sun drying, as well as cooking foods different ways. Salt turned out to be the best way to preserve in those times.

People who grew up on farms were used to growing vegetables and slaughtering their own meat to eat, but most people today would become vegetarians if they had to start processing meat themselves. The rule should be, if you are going to eat meat, you should not complain about the slaughtering and processing method!

Modern times provide us with electrical equipment to process with, and refrigerators and freezers for long-time storage. And, learning how processing meat is done is extremely simple. In fact, one company called Lem Products, sells the equipment, meat storage bags, and seasonings you need for all your processing.

click here

They sell seasoning kits for making breakfast sausage, German sausage, and other recipes you might be interested in. If you can flip a switch, and read instructions, you can become a pro at processing meat.

Processing Meat

Important Health Hazard You Should Know About

When processing meat it is important to know some rules about handling raw meat. Below are some simple rules that will keep you and your family safe from bacteria such as E. coli or Salmonella.

Wash hands with soap before and after handling raw meat
Never wipe up raw meat on the cabinet with a rag, and then turn around and wipe your hands
Be sure and clean everything that came in contact with raw meat by rinsing it in bleach water after a soap cleaning.
Also wash off the cabinets with a rag that has been soaked in bleach water

The bleach water is mostly water in the sink with about ¼ cup of bleach. You need enough to kill any bacteria, then you can rinse in plain water. Always follow these procedures so no one in your family will get sick.

Processing Meat – How To Freeze

click here

One you have your meat cut and ready to freeze you can use several methods. You can buy butcher paper and wrap your meet in it, labeling what’s inside. Or, you can invest in a vacuum sealer, and not worry about how long the food has been in the freezer. Most vacuum sealers say that food will be good one to three years.

click here

For foods you know you will be eating within the next six months you can use Ziploc freezer bags and save some money. The bags for the vacuum sealers do cost more than freezer bags.

Processing meat will become second nature to you after a while and you will appreciate the wonderful taste of fresh meat, and the knowledge of knowing it was prepared safely.

Deer Processing –Why Do It Yourself?

Bruce — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 03:16:07 +0000

Deer Processing –Why Do It Yourself?

Nothing you can eat has a better taste than deer, when it’s processed and cooked right. The reason many people won’t eat deer is because they don’t like the gamey taste. Usually when this happens it means the deer processing wasn’t done correctly. It won’t hurt you, but the taste is a lot more like beef when done correctly.

If you are a hunter you probably already know how to cut the deer up, unless you are a hunter that guts the deer and takes it to the processor to be butchered. If you don’t know how, there are instructional videos that can be found on the Internet at sites like You-Tube, to teach you what the steps are.

One thing the videos don’t usually tell you is to let the deer bleed out good. If you have a cold place to hang the deer for a few days this works great, but it can also be done in an ice chest. You simply put a layer of ice on the bottom of the chest, then place the legs, back strap, etc. in there and cover with more ice.

When you keep ice on the deer for at least a week, the blood will slowly drain down to the bottom of the chest, and away from the deer. This increases the taste immensely. Of course deer processing this way means you have to do the grinding and cutting up of the deer yourself.

Click Here

Doing the deer processing yourself not only helps the taste, it saves you a lot of money. From a good sized deer you should be able to grind some hamburger, cut steaks, make summer sausage, and other delicacies.

When you buy a heavy-duty grinder your deer processing will go a lot faster, however there are some hunters who use a grinding attachment that connects to a good brand of kitchen mixer. Kitchen Aid makes a great mixer if you don’t want just the grinder. The grinding attachment is sold extra for around $40. That way you can use the equipment for baking and mixing as well.

While deer processing at home you will also want some cube steaks and that takes a tenderizer. You can buy them as stand-alone piece of equipment, or you can use a hand held one. If you have a lot of meats to tenderize you need an electric one.

Kitchenaid attachment

Deer Processing With Vacuum Sealing

Once you have your deer cut up, ground, and tenderized, you need to think of the best way to store it. Using a vacuum sealer is the best way to preserve the food for a long time. One good brand is called Food Saver. In minutes this little counter-top machine will have your deer sealed air tight and ready to freeze. The cost for sealers range from $59 to $159, but they last for years, and are well worth the expense.

Deer processing at home is not hard to do, and once you start it you will never go back to the processor again. The equipment is purchased once, and used for years to come. Start your own deer processing and enjoy the taste of all your hard work.

I have found the vacuum sealer is not always the best some of the cheaper ones do not work the best. The photo link will take you to Amazon read the reviews to check and see what customers say about the product to save a lot of grief. The sealer that works the best can really increase the freezer life of your game. I used one for smoked salmon as well as deer and moose and in most cases it works perfect.

Meat Processing – The Do-It-Yourself Way

Bruce — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 22:22:27 +0000

Meat Processing– Processing meat for your self.

Most people don’t even think about the processing that goes into the meat they bring home from the store. However, the price of meat has everyone thinking these days. A lot of people are wondering if meat will continue to be a part of their diet because of the sky high prices.
So what are some families doing about it? Well, they are processing their own meat to save money. It only takes a few tools and a little bit of machinery, but all this will more than pay for itself the first year.
If you are a hunter you at least have access to some kinds of meat, but the fact is that many hunters send their bounty to a meat processor, and of course this cost money. And if you aren’t a hunter there are still ways you can process your own meat, which we will share with you as well.

Equipment You Need For Meat Processing

For meat processing at home you need to own some good butcher or chef knives, and you need a heavy duty meat grinder. One piece of equipment that is optional, but helpful, is to also have a meat tenderizer. These pieces of equipment are electrical appliances that work well in any kitchen.
If you plan on curing some meat you will need plastic containers large enough to hold a ham because you can’t cure in a metal container.

Meat Processing From Store Bought Items

Surprisingly you can actually save money by reprocessing some of the meat you buy in the store. For example, lean hamburger runs almost $4 per pound in some places, but a chuck roast may only be $3 per pound. Take that cheaper cut of meat and make your own hamburger, stew, or chili meat
To save lots of money on meat you will have to process more than store bought meat. You need some wild game.
Types of Wild Game

If you hunt you can save a tremendous amount of money on your grocery bill. Here are just some of the foods you could be bringing to the table.
• Duck
• Deer
• Hog
• Turkey
• Elk
• Moose
• Dove
• Quail
Even catching your own fish is a great way to add another main course to your menu on occasion. Meat processing of these animals and foul will be healthy for you as well. No preservatives added by someone you don’t know, plus you know who has been handling the food.
Killing and processing a cow is not something that everyone would do because it’s a huge animal that produces a lot of meat. But, you can buy a side or quarter of beef to save money.

Meat Processing You Will Love

When you process your own meat you can grind, tenderize, or slice for fajitas. The limit is only your imagination! There is nothing better than deer or elk that has been chicken fried and covered in good old country gravy!
As promised, it is now time to share with people who don’t hunt how to get some of this delicious meat. It’s easy. Everyone knows people who hunt, and most of those people send their meats to the processor. Buy the equipment and offer to process their deer or hog for free if they will shoot you one as well. This is a win-win situation for both parties.
Learning the process is easy if you watch videos on You-tube, or research the techniques online. Start your own meat processing this year and save money while eating like a king!

Camping Vehicle Pre-trip Inspection

Bruce — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 18:31:05 +0000

If anyone has more to add to this list can you contact me on the form below??

I think the best way to be prepared is with starting from the basics. When getting your truck, motorhome, van or just your car ready to head out on a camping trip or any trip I would advise this list of things to check. Just click the photo to get the product at the best price.

If you check your book that comes with your vehicle it may also have a list and more complete one than me.

I would start with having all the fluid levels checked.

Click here

Battery, this may not be an option in newer vehicles.
Radiator coolant levels
Transmission fluid levels
Front and rear end gear oil click here
Tire pressures
Windshield washer fluid level

The other stuff you should look at taking is a 12 volt tire pump, and a repair plug kit. I think it should also include spare fuel if needed and boat gas if you are taking a boat, mixed gas if called for.

click here

It would be a good time to check the ware on your tires as well if you are going into rough country. It has saved me many times having a gallon of water to cool the radiator if necessary. Just to pore on the radiator not in it if the motor is boiling over. You can wreak your engine putting cold water in the radiator when it is too hot. Always give it a half hour to cool first and when putting the water on the front of the radiator, have the motor running.

It is also a good time to check your belts and hoses; it is a lot cheaper to fix them before you have to be towed back to a service station.

I have used the car tire plug kits to fix up many tires and . You pay a few bucks for a good set up then you are everybody’s hero. The plugs do not leak afterwords and out last most tires ask at your local tire shop they have them there also. If you are going into rough country it is best to have a tow rope set up and a jackal this set up can save you a long walk.

Your trailer

It is also very good idea to check to make sure your trailer tires and all parts are up for the trip. I like to keep in mind the last time I had the bearings packed with grease. This does not have to be done all that often. It is also something not to be forgotten for too long. Most long trips in the heat of the summer you will see a trailer on the side of the road with the wheel off.

Click here

When it comes to not worrying about your trailer bearings for a few years check up on Bearing Buddys they have taken the situation and crushed it.

Make sure you have checked the trailer water level and sewer system. It is also time to check your trailer power source to make sure it has all its needs taken care of.

The Chainsaw winch can be your best friend if you find a mud whole to big for your truck.

Camping Recipes For The Campfire

Bruce — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 15:31:51 +0000

Camping Recipes For The Campfire

Not everyone camps where there is electricity, nor do they use a propane stove. Some people just love cooking in an old fashioned campfire, and you would be surprised at the great camping recipes you can create! Camping recipes for the campfire are fairly simple to make, and here are the things you will need to do so.

Rack/grate to place over fire for cooking pots
Click here
Large roll of heavy-duty aluminum foil
Camp Fire Grill
Click Here
Positive Thinking
Frying Pan (iron skillet is best)
Pan for soups/stew/boiling

You may be wondering about the positive thinking that was listed, but it is important to “know” you can create practically any meal you desire on a campfire. It may take a little practice, but sometimes the worst accidents turn into the best camping recipes.

Hobo Stew
Cornbread (best in iron skillet)
Click Here
Chilli
Fried fish(if you catch any)
Fried potatoes
Pinto Beans (to go with the cornbread)

Anything you can cook in a pot at home you can probably cook on the campfire, but there are ways of cooking great meals without a pot as well. There are many variations of this recipe, but here is the general idea.

Take a piece of heavy-duty foil about 12 x 12 inches and place a raw hamburger patty in the middle. The patty should already be seasoned. Then slice some potatoes (one serving) on top of the hamburger patty. Next put some green beans (one serving) on top of the potatoes. Salt and pepper the vegetables and then tightly seal the foil.

Prior to making these individual meals, get the fire on your campfire burning really good. You need coals to place the foil packets on, or even in. Once you have everyone’s individual meal made, place them in the coals for approximately 30 to 40 minutes. You won’t believe how good this mouth watering meal is! All the flavors cooked together in the same juice is just heaven. You can exchange the meat with chicken, and any vegetable you like because they will all be delicious. Chicken may take a little longer to cook than hamburger.

Click Here

The foil will come in handy for heating breads and other items on the rack as well. Great camping recipes can be created with ease with just a little bit of planning. Just because you are outdoors doesn’t mean the food has to be simple.

Plan your next camping trip by spending time thinking up some great camping recipes for your friends and family. You will be delighted, and so will they. All photos are links to Amazon products and reviews
