They are taking all the meat off the bone. Once that's done, they'll take the meat of both deer a mile down the road to the butcher shop, where it will be made into beef sticks and summer sausage. One deer down, one to go.

Cliff gives skinning and butchering lessons (warning: pictures of deer being butchered)
Arick's girl friend's dad and brother each shot an eight-point buck early this morning, opening day of deer season. All of them wanted Cliff to teach him his professional method of dressing and cutting up a deer. I say professional because Cliff was a butcher for over twenty years. I don't think I need to add any more words, so I'll just show the pictures in order.

It will be made into beef sticks? Wow, that's some pretty impressive butchering!!
ReplyDeleteThose are some huge bucks!
ReplyDeleteThat is a lot of work but must save money with Cliff doing the butchering. I know some who take theirs to places to have the whole works done. Beef sticks and summer sausage do sound like a good way to use the meet. Hope you all get to enjoy some too.
ReplyDeleteNo venison for delicious Bambi Chili?
ReplyDeleteEler Beth field dressed Thomas' deer for him on Saturday, with him watching and instructing, of course. She wanted to do it herself because she wants to know that she can do it when she has to. Now we have it cooling on ice, and we'll starting butchering and packaging today.
ReplyDeleteThose boys are being taught by the very best! Nothing like teaching those great skills to the younger generations!!
