men hard at work
how to sharpen a knife
making hamburger
a surgeon in the makingthere will be more to follow....butchering that is. We are thinking about doing lamb and pig too!! what better and cost effective (I can say that cuz our Aunt and Uncle were VERY generous with us) and completely ORGANIC way to get your freezer full??!! there are no dies or hormones in this meat at all! and we made sure we were very hygienic while handling the meat.
It was fun! It is always a good time at the Ranch though!!

I had friends who always butchered their meat. It was always really good and so fresh.
that is so cool, though I am not sure I would want to see the animal alive and then on my plate. I must have a weak stomach for some things. Haha!
I grew up on a ranch so this doesn't make me squeamish. There is nothing like it in the grocery store. Yummy!
I guess I'm one of the squeamish... I'll be having the salad, please... LOL.
Sounds like a great way to get beef...but not sure I'd want to participate in the actual prep.
Share the wealth!!!!!
So nice to have the fresh meat in your freezer, but I like mine in a package already!!
Sure glad I wasn't born a cow nor will I come back as one.
An experience for the girls.
Reminds me of my first winter in Colorado. My husband and all of his family (women included) hunt elk, deer, grouse, wild turkey, javelina, etc.... This was all new to me, but I wasn't opposed to filling the freezer w/o going to the market for meat.
From october that winter until the following Feb. there was some kind of meat hanging in the garage and a processing party going on.
