Johnsonville Brats.Possibly ham steaks.I don't butcher and dine at camp.Nothing against it.Just never do.
Well, my MO is to shoot an animal about four seconds before late shooting light and then spend way too long getting it taken care of by headlamp then headlight. Dinner is usually some whiskey and a few protein bars, maybe a burrito from the gas station if they are open. I'm way too tired to actually cook anything.I did have a victory meal by myself at the Cat's Paw in Bozeman once, that was probably the highlight. I had some sort of sandwich and talked to the bartender who was making about 1000 jello shots for the weekend.I always have high hopes of cooking stuff up fresh, but I can't remember that ever happening. With ocean fare - absolutely.
Why is nobody saying heart? Is heart not everyone's first meal from their animal? I can't remember a time my next meal wasn't heart.
It's always the heart for us too. Thinly sliced and cooked with some onions and potatoes. Best meal ever! Then wash it down with a nice cold IPA.
Honestly tenderloin and back strap is a pretty chewy fresh off the carcass. It needs to sit a bit or get a freeze/thaw on it. Liver is a hard pass. I dont have a first meal ritual but if I do eat something fresh it is gonna be heart. It really ticks off my kids if I dont bring the heart home though Couple years ago in Idaho I took a tenderloin, sliced it paper thin and seasoned it with beef Ramen seasoning (all I had ). Threaded it onto a sad looking roasting stick and warmed it up a bit over a little warming fire. The whole setup was quite sad looking but it tasted pretty dang good.
That meal is 10 times better at hunting camp then at home though Clint. gonna have to cross paths at a huntin camp someday & break bread over a couple cold beers!

All the normal at home stuff, gonna try to slip over east of the mountains to meet up with some old friends at mule deer camp for a few days & then it’s all about Colorado 3rd season deer in November!😎 I’m sure you got a full slate scheduled as usual?
