Diamondbackaz Report post Posted November 21, 2009 Butcher it your self. It is not that difficult and you package it the way you want it. You can buy a Cabelas meat grinder and vacuum packager with the money you would pay the processors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peckl1 Report post Posted November 22, 2009 Here's another post for doing your own work. Shot my deer the first day of the mule deer hunt. Put it in the refridgerator in 4 hours. Butchered it 8 days later. That night had a strap roast. Been on the road for the last 2 weeks. Tonight was a ham steak. I also ground up some pork and mixed it with the deer burger for 15 lbs of summer sausage. I'll smoke it tomorrow. Nothing beats doing it yourself.
