smoked tongue is very tasty you will need to brine it and remove the skin from them . I use a ham brine soak it for 3-4 days then remove it and cut away the skin I then smoke them at 180 degrees until internal temp reaches 160 let them cool in fridge then slice and enjoy so people I know like to reheat also as far as testies ever heard of mountain oysters that's when they castrate pigs in the south their then sliced breaded and fried and yes they are edible and not overly bad!!

Thank you everyone Im happy to say the meat grinder has been sold

we have crows by the hundreds here in orange county shooting one of them would almost be a pleasure just don't know how to get it to you I could vacuum seal it and send it out overnight Maybe??

Well tell him congrats

good all around field gun I have had mine over 40 years its a 12 ga double I also have a 16 and a 20 double to match they have been good to me and have taking lots of rabbit a other small game

Same here I grind mine through a 5/16 plate then dump into my meat mixer I also pack burger into the bags good investment just twist and tape them I do use a sausage press to put them in the bags however you can use your grinder just takes a little effort Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There is 5 extra plates and two knives also with this grinder for the record this grinder has the capability to grind around 700 pound of meat per hour so its by no means a small grinder

I have a stimpson Meat grinder for sale its a 1 horse grinder with extra plates and knives works great, and it has a number 22 head on it. I'm asking $250.00 Its a good Grinder the only reason I'm selling it is i have a bought a bigger one. I am located in orange county understandably shipping would be a problem as its heavy anyone interested or if you want pics please text me @ (845)721-8252 or E mail me @ [email protected]

just need him there in the shooting light Good luck hope you put your tag on him

they didn't freeze it? I have been processing meats deer and others for over 20 years everything leaves here frozen. the color difference is most likely brought on by air touching the meat hence those packs look nice but they do allow air to enter them and as others have said will cause freezer burn. the multiple small pieces look like flank,neck and stuff that could of been stew meat or ground. The meat shouldn't have any bad taste from the color as long as it was kept cold while your processor had it. them not marking what the cuts are is a little lax but I guess that's how some do it, like I read in earlier post you can do your own its really not hard and their is a lot videos on you tube.

ya your right I also started before there was even any doe permits in 3M not that I want to date myself LOL But like you said there was more hunters then and we hunted it has been way to easy to fill tags for the last couple years, seems everybody now wants to put out trail cameras and things to help them pick a certain deer out of the herd and when that don't work they get frustrated and blame the no deer left clause. Theirs deer out there sure its a off year brought on by a harder then normal winter and a full moon but to my knowledge they have not started hiding in caves.

well if it matters in 3M you have to drive slow in the morning to avoid running them over but they seem to be bed down before dawn and not move again until around 6-7 o clock at night per car versus deer police reports. Understandably the full moon has effect on deer movement, I hope the second week turns around as for as hunter pressure goes its no doubt been lower this year then past years.

I have been using my 270 over 25 years the only problem I can see is up close like 40 yards and under they run out at 300 its like someone pulled the rug from under them I do use a 150 grain bullet though But good luck with what ever you shoot

Does it join your 20 acres Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

yup I get four DMP tags for 3M and there has been times I have filled them all before 9 am not this year of course as deer seemed to learn how to read a calendar and know when opening day has started and I and my family like the taste of venison I also do my own processing

200 grain that's like swatting flies with a sledgehammer sure it does the job but its a little over kill

let it lay overnight if you have a good blood trail and know where you left off finding it in the morning should not be a issue Good luck

3M sounded like a ghost town compared to years ago

it was even bad down here in 3m nothing maybe 15 shots started around 7:20 too not the usual 6:15 very upsetting for a opening morning its like theirs nobody left to hunt and move deer around

well we hate to break it to you like this but your going to have to get out of your stand and go get it, or wait until you see the big yellow ball over head

I cant say for sure its illegal but its unethical to shoot a cub

I don't know how many fights he has won but by the looks of him he has been in a couple congrats anything with a bow should be considered a trophy

as a rule of thumb the further apart the ears the bigger the bear I do think its illegal to shoot a bear thats in a group though but I could be mistaken on that

you just need to find smaller mountains
