Well, not really. The wife and I just finished stuffing 23 packages of deer/pork sausage into casings and tomorrow they go into the Smoker. We ground and mixed the meat and added the seasoning earlier and froze it. Now we will cook it in my friends big smoker then we can freeze it again. Now it will be cooked and all we need to do it heat it up. Looks like about 40-45 lbs.

I have stuffed the casings and cooked them in a slow cooker which also works well but this way we can add some smoke flavor too. We have Hickory chips for smoke this time. Sometimes my wife cans the links and then they need no refrigeration. Good old farm girls.:D

We are also going to inject some deer roasts with brine and smoke them as well. HUNGRY YET?:)
 
Yep! Set a place for me, would ya?
Self reliant food storage skills, canning, smoking, all of those skills can really be a great skill to have.
Dumb question but did you harvest the game yourself?
 
Yes I love deer hunting or all hunting as far as that goes. I have a small farm in SD where the Mule deer hunting is fantastic. We were out ther in Nov for three days. Must have seen a couple hundred Mulies. Big old herds of them. I had three tags this year but I quit with one as I had some meat left over from the year before.
 
I'll draw up a chair & bring some decent red wine along with me to compliment the excellent food thanks! If this is 'survival' food what has anybody got to worry about???
 
Is there a reason why you smoke it after freezing it and then freeze it again?

I don't know much about that.
 
Damn. Now you've made me hungry.
