Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Food, Cooking, and Game Preparation Deer burger production

So, so friggin cold over the weekend, figured I make deer burger, in the basement;





70lbs should get us through the rest of winter.

Nice. We need to do the same.

(i have refused to comment out of shear, unrepentent, unabashed green envy)

Nice, did not get to go deer hunting this year. Oh well next year

I'm jealous of the basement!

Doug's off to 3rd year trade school, next Saturday, so asked to take about 20kg of burger, to get him through the 9 weeks.

Hmmm, better get to & do some more, I guess !!

So, do you thaw it, grind it and then refreeze?

Freeze your chunks in vacuum bags, partially thaw, grind twice, vacuum bag & freeze.

The balls of burger you see there, still have a high "ice crystal" content.

I have to stop & warm up my hands often.

The frozen meat is better for your grinder too !
