Jerky
I have a good recipe/method. Do you have a dehydrator ?
Thanks!! Last year he killed a button buck.. it was kinda small so this was huge to him. It's at the butcher now getting cut and packaged up. I am excited to try and make jerky for the first time.. hopefully it's good

LM, not sure how you plan to make the jerkey but 1 word of advice is to freeze the meat to the point it is frozen but still barely pliable, makes it so much easier to cut and if you're using a slice it will help stop it from clogging on the backside of the wheel.......

You wanna share it Bones?
I think we have one around here... but I was also reading about doing it in the oven.

Not exactly sure how I will do it yet.. I have been googling it.. and I did read that it is easier to freeze it some. Which actually makes sense but I would have never thought about it

I bet those rally folks would have appreciated if you had brought along a variety of jerkies - venison, beef, turkey - to keep them nourished while they protested animal cruelty.
A thought for next time.
Congrats on the deer. You can use an oven to make jerky, just need to keep the oven door open to let the moisture out. Walmart has good jerky seasoning kits - spices and cure with cooking instructions. If you thin slice the meat, I sprinkle seasoning on each piece and pound it flat with a meat mallet, place it in a gallon zip lock for a day for the seasoning to saturate the meat. Good weekend project.

It seemed like this was a great year for new youth hunters. There were many more this year than past years and the future is looking bright at this point.
We took several young fellas out on Saturday for the youth hunt. should have some photos posted up on the SMST website in a few days. Everybody had a great time and we took a few deer as well. We've gotten a lot of stories and photos emailed in for posting on the website, just a matter of getting the time to post them up. Hopefully we can get some more to promote the youths in the area too. We always look forward to the local content we receive.
