I will be cutting soon too! I was able to get my first and second deer ever in one day on Sunday. Very first one being a nice sized buck and then folded a supplemental later in the day. The knives are sharp and the beer is cold… I’d say I’m ready to have some fun!

I’ve butchered 8 deer and 1 elk this year. We always have a crowd over and everyone leaves with meat. Good times! Here’s a couple deer hams I’ve been brining for 8 days. Cold smoking now. Hot smoke overnight. Wake up to smokey goodness!

Hams cold smoking:
Finished product:
A little glaze and reheat and you can’t beat it! Just another good alternative to roasts and steaks.

Ya it’s very good thank you!
It’s not a ton of work. The brine is about a half hour of prep. The butchering is silver skin and shank removal. The brining process is easy, I only inject once at the beginning and once in the middle of the 7-8 days. Rinse and soak in water for 24 hrs to get the excess salt out. Cold smoke. Hot smoke. It’s about 3 hrs total work i would say.

I have it on good authority that Bessie is imbibing the poisonous Crown again. I tried to help him with that, I did, that's what a friend does. But he keeps going back to it.
I think he just likes the Velvet bag to keep his marbles in.

Do you guys freeze the “ham” meat afterwards or does is have to be eaten within a certain amount of time? Looks awesome would love to try it and to do it! Just don’t want to waste it if it can’t be kept for an extended amount of time.

Is that a shot from one of those bottles of XR Bessie?
I've had a bottle for close to a couple years now. Have yet to crack it.

Crown Royal extraXRrare. Didn't know it existed till I got a bottle for my bday.
$200 a bottle so still waiting for a special occasion to crack it. 400" elk was supposed to be it but that plan fell apart.

On more than one occasion I e wished I was u!
400+ bull….. I’ll never have that opportunity.
Same with that yummy XR you speak of.
Once about 3 years ago I had my biggest bull I’ve over sighted in on dead to rights at 80yards….. that guy couldn’t have been bigger than 300ish
Didn’t fire b/c my son was in front of me…. Steep downhill.
400……..
You live right.

Cut and wrapped our moose in october, and my wife and I will be starting on her elk tomorrow.
Very enjoyable/rewarding time processing your own wild game and I have my wife to thank for getting me into that as I would normally take my larger animals to a butcher before we met.
Nothing like it!
