What did you make out of your animal this year?
« on: October 30, 2014, 10:30:52 AM »
As in, jerky, sausage, etc?

Im having some landjaegar and pepperoni sticks made, to try a new local butcher out, but might make more summer sausage, or maybe some brats myself..  Curious what others make, other than the obvious steaks, roasts and burger? And did you make it yourself? Looking for some new idea's

My bear summer sausage, that was amazing:

Son's buck minus the Backstrap and few steaks...

Pretty much all burger, He wanted all pepperoni, so I will make some of that out of my eastern oregon deer for him. We eat a lot of meals with burger in our household...

Steaks, chops, roasts... The rest in burger, pepperoni, whimpy's.  I took mine and my son's deer to Sumas Meats north of Aldergrove. One form to fill out at the border for exporting deer meat for processing. No Canadian paperwork. I declare it to them when going north, I declare it and show U.S. Customs my copy of the form when I bring it back. No fee/tax.  Kurt and his sons have been great butchers for me. Timely, trustworthy, cost effective.

Elk, 25 lbs of summer sausage, steaks, a few roasts and ground. I'm still debating on what to do with my deer but I have to get it on the ground first... day after Thanksgiving can't get here soon enough.
Thank God for Hunting...gives me something to think about at work.

Can't make much out of a Decatur doe... 8 1/2 pounds canned (six jars), 7 pounds of burger, 7 1/2 pounds of steak, including the heart.   Yep, 23 pounds of meat from a mature doe....  Tastes good though.   ;)

68# of elk burger mixed with 10% beef suet. 30# venison breakfast sausage. 30# spicy venison breakfast sausage. 24# sweet Italian venision sausage.  Most of the elk went into steaks and stirfrys.  All but the backstraps of the deer went into sausage this year.  All venison was mixed with 25% 70/30 pork back/butt/shoulder.  Definitely took some time, but well worth it when it comes to eating.

160 lbs of elk burger so far.   November deer kills will be jerky, summer sausage, and pepperoni.   I like to mix venison with duck/goose for pepperoni so I don't usually have that made until January.
