That’s awesome!
I haven’t canned meat yet. Need to try that at some point. My last 3 deer I’ve had processed because it’s easier (though an added expense) so it comes wrapped and I freeze it.
What do you plan to make with it? Or do you just use it as regular meat/for anything?

And as far as “weird meat” goes, I’ve enjoyed squirrel too. It was honestly great.
I’m on the lookout for opossum. But haven’t found a dinner for that lol - might have to hunt it.
Been reading a lot of frontiersman history, and they ate it all. Figure it’s worth trying.

Oh wow!
I need to get on the list for that. Only took one deer this year, and it was admittedly small.
Did you get much good meat off them?

Haven’t heard of that being an issue here! I know rabbits in warms temps can have something (I forget what).
But it tasted like a beef roast, had the texture of dark meat chicken. It was really nice. I was pleasantly surprised and would totally eat it again. We both cleaned our plates.

They’re all naturally harvested.
I don’t know the exact logistics, but I imagine it’s a team effort of hunters and trappers.
I also think this dinner is pretty unique these days. 100+ years ago, raccoon was on many menus.

I hate when people ask me what I want for Christmas.
If I wanted it, I bought it.
If I didn’t buy it, you can’t afford it either 🥂
