Looking good my man.....I need to take more pics like these and also learn more about butchery, different cuts and whatnot. I can't compete with what you got going there but here are a few... Wyoming antelope. Keeping things as clean as realistically possible. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/EplkkKc.jpg) Small Montana whitetail buck. Wet aging in the fridge which isn't my first choice, but it works. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/Jv8B8oR.jpg) My favorite way to eat trout and about the only way I can really stomach smaller trout.....fish tacos over a campfire in the backcountry. I've been known to pop a grouse on the trail for the same reason. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/sd9RWrt.jpg) I can't find pics, and it isn't glorious culinary but boiling pieces of moose or sheep tenderloin in a jetboil, then throwing it in with Mountain House at spike camp has a special charm.... That's a cool axe T_Inman, what is it? Thanks. Frank

Alright ! We can't do the surf & turf thing, here. Have to settle for "land & lake" !!

Those steaks even look tender. Mine never look like that. Maybe it's the aging thing? Mine don't hang too long usually due to weather. Although unusual, was almost 60 last 2 days of the season here. Mine are usually cut and wrapped within a day or so.

We often get temps to high to hang deer for extended periods of time here too. In fact I’d say it’s the norm.
We keep an old refrigerator in the garage and use it to “hang” quarters. The rest of the year it stays full of drinks or extra food before gettogethers. Pretty handy to not have to scramble to cut up meat when it’s still season and you have tags to fill.

Venison Wellington. Buy or make some puff pastry (butter and flour, essentially). Season and sear the loin just a touch. I made pate out of the deer's liver (find a recipe that uses reduced brandy), put down a layer of that on the pastry first, then the loin. Spread some grainy mustard on top if you like that sort of thing (I do). If you have some morels, they go nicely in the top layer, which is duxelles. Wrap it up, egg wash it, and cook in a hot oven to brown pastry without overcooking the meat. Maybe a little sauce on the side. Kind of elaborate, but I usually do it once a season. Nice for special occasions.
