Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Thawing game meat - what is your preferred method

I just take frozen roasts of moose or caribou, whole taters,water, salt, pepper garlic and put them on woodstove before bed. Usually tender by 8 hours atop wood stove.

No matter who shows up, no matter what time of night or day, always Dutch ovens full of moose, taters in broth.

big pot hot water for tea or coffee.

Come spring, whatever meat is left gets canned or smoked. I don't have refrigerator, freezer or electricty.

The better check points along the Iditarod race will have wood stoves dressed out with stew and hot water 24/7
