Butcher recommendations.

MunkMaster · Dec 10, 2017

So my butcher decided to hand up his knives so he can hunt with his grand kids and I really cant blame him. Does anyone have recommendations for a deer butcher in the Salisbury Pittsville area?

Thanks I'll check him out. It was a guy name John(not saying last name for privacy reasons). He is on liberty town road a little bit before Berlin.

Butch used to pickle quarters for just a few dollars, works good for when the freezer gets filled up and there's still time to hunt.

I'm not following you. Whats involved in pickling a 1/4 and how do you process it?

In OC you have the mnit market 41o-289-9137. I don't know if he still does deer.

Picked up a sika from Frase's today. First time I used him my brother has used him for years. I took the one from last Thursday to this place.
Charles llyes Family in York pa. Picked that one up yesterday. It's a hike but worth the trip. They do a teriyaki Bologna and deer stick that makes the drive for me worth it. Still have one at M&G in Carroll county. They must be slow or backed up..

Its like salt curing a ham, your quarters are tagged so they can be identified and then immersed in a brine solution.
When they float, remove them from the brine and then hang them in a cellar if you have one after they are wrapped in cheesecloth.
You can have your neck meat, back straps and stew meat in a meat tub that doesn't take up the whole fridge or cooler.
This way you do not have to worry about un-skinned carcasses hanging if it warms up or you need to sleep there other distractions that would keep you from rendering your deer.
Whats involved is quartering your deer, and then tossing it in Butch Frases
vats of decades old recipe. You then process it like you eat a ham but its not for everyone because of the sodium content. You can age them as long as you like but once someone starts into them they usually do not last too long.
