My father and all my uncles were beef boners and meat cutters--I started cutting meat when I was 8 years old.
I've got a meat saw and grinder, wrapping table and sausage stuffer set in my shop. Trained a lot of young fellers over the years--most of 'em smart enough to stay away from here in the fall of the year.
That's funny! ..... I worked as a commercial meat cutter for 24yrs learning back in the day when beef came on a hook not in a box. I don't cut meat for pay but do still do it for friends (for free). While I not longer cut meat, I too stay clear of those who do moose in the fall. It's a lot of hard work.
Our family has a moose camp on the Kenogami River east of Longlac.
