Thread: Another silly bear

My 22 year old son filled the freezer with cube steaks, burger and other cuts from a 180 pound buck he killed last fall. We just ate the last pack of meat a couple weeks ago-it was delicious. Lean and nutritious, and no chemicals. I think he was pretty proud of providing for his family in this most ancient way.

I haven't hunted in decades myself, but I have no issue with people doing it as long as they respect the resource.

Funny you mention rabbits, Paul-As we speak, a pair are foraging in my yard just outside the window here. My Papaw would have shot one to fry up in pan gravy.

That's how I survived for a many years, along with the few times I received a 1/4 of beef from the farmer I worked for.

I did put venison on the table a few times after I got married, but the wife never really cared for it. She said it always reminded her of the movie, Bambi.

Now I just put a order in with the farmer I worked for, for farm raised beef. Better than store bought, and cheaper in the long run. Just put an order in a few days ago, knowing the cows will be ready near the end of August.
$2.50 a lb. hanging weight + processing is my cost for prime beef.



Let me know if you can find a roast, marbled like this, in the store for $2.50 a lb.
