It helps to have a plan for what you know that you will use the meat for.  We usually make some steaks and then ground burger. with no suet added that we use for taco meat, spaghetti, hamurger helper etc. since that is what I know we will use most f the meat for.  We will grind some with cheap bacon in a few packages for hamburgers.  I save some steaks instead of roasts since I seem to dry out my roasts and I like steak better so that is what I use.

I butcher my own also, the shops just won't take the time to really get the scraps off the bones. I use them as stew meat, and only use a hacksaw and a couple knives.  I will have to look into the butcher paper roll thing, I have always used gallon sized ziploc bags. Kinda pricey. Deffenatly worth the time and you only buy the hard items once if you get good stuff.

And so true about the grill being at the ready while cutting up the meat.  :chuckle:  :chuckle:
