Elk packaged weight
« on: October 14, 2015, 12:51:07 AM »
Never really have weighed finished product as we process our own meat. I kept track of the totals on my cow elk this year and thought I would share.
Elk was quartered in field, neck, ribs boned out.

66 lbs burger
113 lbs steak
8 lbs liver
3 lbs heart
25 lbs bones
30 lbs trimmed scrap

Total packaged in freezer of 190 lbs.

Nice, good size cow.  I'm hoping to put one in the freezer in late season.  That's more meat than my buddy got off his 4x4 bull last year.

My spike last year I got 165lb of processed meat minus the back strap and tenderloins which i kept. This year we had a spike go in to butcher at 182 lb on the hook minus blackstrap and loins.  Will be interesting to see the final processed weight.

About 10 AM. I actually was packing my daughters deer out when I shot it. Shot it 5 minutes after she took this picture.

Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.
