#Meat Processing Tools

Brutal meat processing day, an absolute blast! . . . . . . #mealprep #huntingseason #deermeat #meatprocessing #fyp

Quick overview of getting your meat home for out of state hunts. Last flight made for a late night, but I firmly believe you have a responsibility to do everything you can to care for the meat you took- be it deer, elk, goose, or hogs. 65lbs of Texas pork should make some great meals in the months ahead!

We’re officially in the home stretch of processing, and man, it truly is a process. We started with synthetic casings to accommodate those with pork allergies and finished up the rest with traditional pig casings. There’s a certain satisfaction in the rhythm of both, but I’ve gotta ask—which one do you prefer? As I look at the freezer filling up, I am reminded of how lucky we are. I think of the past generations that shared their love for hunting and blessed us with the land we hunt. They gave us more than just a hobby. They gave us a way of life. It’s an honor to work the ground, respect the harvest, and keep the tradition alive for everyone coming up behind us. #hunterlifestyle #wildgame #blessedlife #meatprocessing #homesteading

This cow elk has been hanging in our garage for about two weeks, at temperatures ranging from 32 to about 40 degrees. Time does what it is meant to do. The meat begins to break down, tenderize, and deepen in flavor. The exposed surface dries and hardens, forming the pellicle, a tough outer layer that develops where meat is exposed to air. Whenever possible, we leave the hide on during the aging process. With less meat exposed to air, less pellicle forms. Ideally, if you can get your animal out whole and hang it with the hide on, it is the best case scenario. It reduces waste, protects the meat, helps maintain cooler temperatures, and minimizes temperature swings between night and day. Here Rick is trimming the hardened pellicle from the tenderloins, exposing clean, beautifully aged meat beneath. This will not make it to the freezer, it will be dinner. #TenderloinThief #DoriGetsTheTenderloins #FirstWorldHunterProblems #NotStarving

Don’t worry about anyone sending us mystery meat…we know exactly what we’re cooking. We were there every step of the way. And it’s such a win-win. It makes us appreciate the hunt and respect the animal even more. Because pulling the trigger is just a moment. The work hasn’t even begun yet. #wildgame #huntingcouple #meatprocessing #modernhomestead #wildgamecooking

I keep getting this question—some hunters are truly curious, others are criticizing. The truth is, you can process your harvest however you want to. I choose to do it this way because not only can I taste the difference, my customers, friends & family can to. Figure out how to enjoy your harvest the best, and do it that way! #venison #deerprocessing #deer

It’s okay to take a little time to get the scent out of your nose 😁🫶🏻

B reel footage tonight because it made me chuckle and sometimes making content is difficult. Sometimes processing wild game is also difficult. Sometimes tearing paper is…listen. Hush. #modernhomestead #huntingcouple #wildgame #meatprocessing #venison

my favorite ways to use deer 👇🏻 • as a direct replacement for ground beef in anything & everything!! that’s why I’m so obsessed with @lemproducts big bite grinder. I use ground deer SO MUCH • cooked in the crock pot as a roast. either with potatoes & carrots OR to use for bbq pulled deer sandwiches or nachos • burgers 🤤 so juicy & flavorful don’t forget to comment “setup” or just go ahead & check out @lemproducts they’re sharing a new deal on home processing equipment every day leading up to Christmas 🎉 #ad #wildgame #homegrown #harvestyourownfood #venison #deerprocessing #sahm #singleincomefamily
