You should try brining the hams. Get a 5 gallon bucket with lid, 1 cup of kosher salt, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/8 cup black pepper, 1/8 cup paprika, 8 or so cloves of garlic, 1 sliced onion, 4 sliced apples, a handful of your favorite fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, oregano, sage, etc) and 2 gallons of apple juice or cider. Put 1 gallon of the juice in a pot, add all the seasonings, apples, garlic, herbs and onion; heat until everything is dissolved, let cool (you can add ice to speed it up). Put the butt in the bucket, pour the pot of brine over the butt, add the other gallon of juice over it, fill the rest of the bucket with ice. Let that soak for atleast 24 hours while adding ice every 6 to 8 hours depending on how fast it melts. When you’re ready to smoke it, rinse it off and pat dry with a paper towel, rub it down with your favorite seasoning, and smoke it low and slow. 👌🤑
Hey Mike, let them run down river until they turn and start back up the river. When they turn back up river usually meant they’ve swallowed the bait. Then try and set the hook. Hope it helps on your hookup rate.
Awesome video. Wow that was a huge pig. Just a suggestion with the gar, wrap the bait with yarn. Their teeth get caught in it and you won't lose them. Hope it helps. Love your seasoning by the way. Thanks for sharing another great video, take care and stay safe.
Thank you for explaining about the hunting from the boat, I always wondered how that works since most of the property in Texas is private property. Ive heard of a lot of people taking pigs while fishing.
But I cant find anything in the tpwd about being able to shoot hogs anywhere but on public lands with a permit or with land owner permission. Would really like to know the full details of how this works.
Mullet Man..YOU..my friend..are the single most COOLEST guy on TH-cam! I love your channel & everything that you're doing! Awesome recipes as well, brotha!
Hey man thanks for the great content I wish you and your family the best I’m down in Natalia Texas near San Antonio been a fan pretty much before you made your seasoning 🤘🏽🤙🏽💯
Hey, animal scientist here. Just wanted to chime in on the possible bad taste on boars since it's kind of interesting. In industry a lot of times it's called boar taint and doesn't occur in all uncastrated animals, but can be very potent for some people. I say some people because the majority of the population is actually genetically incapable of detecting the chemicals that comprise boar taint. This is also incidentally why back in the day that boars were traditionally used for pepperoni an other strong flavored cured meats as it would mask the flavors. Love the channel, keep up the good work.
I always smoke Wild Hog to 145 degrees and then wrap in foil and finish to 205. Pulls really well and is tasty. I have always heard you need to cook wild hog to at least 165 to kill any diseases they carry. I have never had bad wild hog. Prefer to domestic for sure.
Have you tried using the hook less method for catching gar? Using frayed up white rope, Richard Gene the fishing machine on TH-cam has a good video on how to rig it up
I prefer wild to store bought all day long! Never really hog hunted until I started following your channel, so thanks; be safe; and next time you're in Louisiana, come do a hog hunt! You would enjoy some of the land we hunt!
we use smaller bait in Florida for the big gar just because it makes for an easier hook up....we cant catch alligator gar but we catch some huge spotted gar....kinda hot here too.....
I grew up in the Red River bottoms of SW Arkansas and there were gars for days. I live in Zimbabwe now and Tiger fishing the Zambezi is awesome! No washing your hands in the river though, the crocs bite!
reeling down as close to the fish as possible gotta be the most important part of live bait fishing *might a broken rod eye rubber ring too* had the same thing happen to me a lot
I always have a gun or 2 or 3. on me, you just never know what you might see and need to get. Nice shot, nice looking pig. We don't have wild pig yet but when we do I'm going to have a freezer full of bacon
Let that meat rest after taking it off the heat to let the juices run back into the meat so it wont dry out... there is always left overs and making scallop potatoes and ham...
Thanks for sharing this. Sir, if you know to, you could turn its skin into pork cracklings. You must shave it first, cut it into any size you want, then boil these for 30 mins. at least, with salt, drain, and dry in the sun until it becomes real hard,maybe a couple of days. Then deep fry it. It cooks real fast in high temperature so better not leave it alone. I hope you'd try it. It's great for snacks. We even use the knuckles for soup.
I was taught when gar fishing when they start taking the bait and taking line let them keep going till they stop moving once they do it mean they have stopped to eat the bait and then you set the hook I do this when gar fishing and it always works
I have smoked enough boston butts and pork shoulders on the traeger and the camp chef to know that your ham was not cooked long enough to pull meat from the ham to have pulled pork. I feel as if you found blood around the bone when you cut down in to it. I cook mine between 225 and 250 degrees for about 10 hours to reach the point of it completely pulling off the bone for pulled pork. You and yours may enjoy sliced pork and that is fine for y"all . Happy fishing and hunting.!!!!
Nice video from zyck outdoors,it would have been awsome if you took the temperature and show were as the meat fall off the bone,but overall awsome video.
Dang that hog was thick and healthy, he has definitely been eating from someone's feeder he just slipped up and needed a drink you are exactly right if you take care of the meat properly and let it set in cooler for about 3 to 5 days and keep changing the water and ice until the blood is all out and the meat is pink as long as he hasn't been fighting a bunch and breeding most of the time they will not be stank lol
I have had boar hog that wasn't good to me but I know others that could eat it just fine, so maybe it's individual taste? I have also heard that they only taste bad when they are, or recently finished servicing sows, and that in a little while the strong flavor of hormones will go away. I realize that pigs reproduce year round but that doesn't mean it isn't cyclical where the boar can settle between peaks.
Exactly. A quick clean kill drops the animal quickly and greatly reduces the amount of adrenaline that pumps through the meat. Always good to see people making these clean kills
I like the way that you live off of the land. You went for gar but you took back up which ended up being next day's lunch. God provides for his people. How are your chickens laying eggs doing? How did your garden turn out? Love watching your videoes. One question that I never thought to ask, What is Mullet Man's Christian name? Well, guys have a great day. Can hardly wait for your next video.
I have heard the same thing for year's there's no diffence in the taste to me either just glad to hear someone like yourself say it because so many times i have seen people shoot a big one and leave it laying in the woods to rot and that makes me so mad like why did you kill it if your not going to mess with it. I will shoot a big boar and process it just like a sow. And sir you are one of the best youtuber's out there today congrat's great shot and great pig i love that rifle and i love that caliber 308 and 6.5 creedmore.
My 6.5 grendel in ar platform really gets the job done i love all sizes the bigger they are the longer i soak them in ice water usually at least a few days it cleans the meat out gets all the blood and other stuff out makes them taste exellent
@Yeet Cannon Operators Union awesome thank you. I'm about to go look for his video. And go to there website. It's been awhile since I got a bolt action anyway I need one
@Yeet Cannon Operators Union yup that was it! Thank you. I just watched your videos too. You should make more. I like the CZ Tactical you have. I was stuck between get one of those or the Sig 1911 & I went with the 1911 tho
@Yeet Cannon Outfitters Oh im very comfortable with my firearms. I've been doing three gun competition for the past few years. But thank you, a lot of people have guns but dont respect them. But I'll subscribe to you definitely. I hope to see more of your videos. What state do you live in? I have an abundance of ammo & some odd round too. Mostly for 9mm, 45 & 223/556. I'll send you some to make a few videos with if you want.
Not trying to sound like some pro gar fisherman as I was texting you shot and it made me jump but the gar sometimes you just have to let them go and they will sit somewhere and nibble and finally swallow it and give a little tug if it is still there pull it tight and you know what to do then set it to em and the fight is usually on because they are not like Bass or bluegill but you know what I'm saying thanks for SHARING Brother
Dont know if you’ll see this, need some info. I can lease some land with pig traps in north central texas, but was told not to shoot a pig in the trap because pigs wont go back in. Can you tell me if this is true??
Not true, they might stay out of the trap for a couple days but we’ve had our traps in the same spot on our property for year and killed hundreds of pigs in them
You should try brining the hams. Get a 5 gallon bucket with lid, 1 cup of kosher salt, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/8 cup black pepper, 1/8 cup paprika, 8 or so cloves of garlic, 1 sliced onion, 4 sliced apples, a handful of your favorite fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, oregano, sage, etc) and 2 gallons of apple juice or cider.

Yup same thing I would have said
Just seen your comment bro. Said the exact same thing.
Was about to type this then read your comment!
pig is disgusting
@@muslim_allah-is-the_greate1295 this is for gar, not pig.
Awesome video. Wow that was a huge pig. Just a suggestion with the gar, wrap the bait with yarn. Their teeth get caught in it and you won't lose them. Hope it helps. Love your seasoning by the way. Thanks for sharing another great video, take care and stay safe.
Shorter's Diecast Projects great idea
Really going through some tough times right know but man mullet man every time I see your videos brings me back up keep up the awesome work 🤘🏾
I don't understand why you don't have over a million subscribers
Ur vids are awesome
Try pressure cooking some of the beast in orange and garlic and add coriander before serving

You should definitely create a veggie seasoning man. You always seem to include them in your recipes and I think it would fly off the shelves.
Mullet Man..YOU..my friend..are the single most COOLEST guy on TH-cam! I love your channel & everything that you're doing! Awesome recipes as well, brotha!
“It smells just like... what it needs to smell like” 😂👍🏼
*Out here in central Texas it hit 109 this weekend it was a hot one for sure*
Love your videos Mullet man👍 keep grinding
Much respect Mike. Some of the best content on TH-cam these days!
Hey man thanks for the great content I wish you and your family the best I’m down in Natalia Texas near San Antonio been a fan pretty much before you made your seasoning 🤘🏽🤙🏽💯
prep is key! and cooking long enough...you were prepared! - try some small ones too #moa #freezer packing #trichinosis info #meat thermometer

Let the gar run down a ways until they stop or turn back , that's when you know they have it down

love the content!!🔥🔥 you should “catch clean cook” a bobcat next 💯
He already did like twice
Already did it
Scroll back a year or so he did
If he did it again it should be with Flair when trapping season starts in Nebraska and a few different things
“Just tie the boat to him” 😂
Cool video!
Make some hunting videos this year congratulations on you and Sam getting married.
U going to do that coyote catch and cook man? and love the vids
Already did it
A new one man?
we use smaller bait in Florida for the big gar just because it makes for an easier hook up....we cant catch alligator gar but we catch some huge spotted gar....kinda hot here too.....
Try setting the hook sideways instead of straight up and down! that’s how we hook em here on the coast 🤙
0:56 And here we go! (The rock music starts playing)
I love that you have the "Miracle Blade Knives". LOL. I have 2 sets! great kitchen knives.
Your carving knife your useing to cut the cooked ham looks like a miracle blade knife if so i have the whole set awesome knives
I grew up in the Red River bottoms of SW Arkansas and there were gars for days. I live in Zimbabwe now and Tiger fishing the Zambezi is awesome! No washing your hands in the river though, the crocs bite!
reeling down as close to the fish as possible gotta be the most important part of live bait fishing *might a broken rod eye rubber ring too* had the same thing happen to me a lot
Try using some nylon rope frayed out wrapped around the hook. There teeth get caught in it and can't get out
Joe Dierickx good idea!
This is the method my grandfather taught me and I've always caught gar successfully
Best video yet💯
Ok Mullet Man, where the heck in TX and what type of rifle was that I know you said 308 is it like a ranch rifle? Anyhow good video.
He had it custom made
Good vija mulletmane!! 🔥 🔥 you should make your own line of bbq sauce 👀
MCC dock and Spillway are two places I catch gar from shore. They are fun to catch.
Hey you should do the rope lure double and/or treble hook rig, just an idea and keep up great videos.
I always have a gun or 2 or 3. on me, you just never know what you might see and need to get. Nice shot, nice looking pig. We don't have wild pig yet but when we do I'm going to have a freezer full of bacon
Love your vids
Let that meat rest after taking it off the heat to let the juices run back into the meat so it wont dry out... there is always left overs and making scallop potatoes and ham...
Awesome video. What do you feed your lab it has a very shiny coat.
You all need longer poles brother especially with them bobbers takes a lot to get all that pressure to the fish man
You know it’s good when he can’t stop eating on it 😂😂😂
From my experience I find it's best to allow the gar run with the bait for at least 1 to 3 minutes, almost guaranteed to catch it then.
Thanks for sharing this.

Looks good, I've got to try your season!!
Great job wonderful video looks absolutely amazing and delicious
I had so much fun watching y’all miss the fish! But you got bites!
Do you know of a good seasoning to make breakfast sausage?
Steel leader would be ur go to when you keep braking that bad bro
Got up this morning at 3 and put on a 18 pound brisket on my pitboss, one of my best yet!
Nice video from zyck outdoors,it would have been awsome if you took the temperature and show were as the meat fall off the bone,but overall awsome video.
I just cooked a 300+ pounder. I had no complaints.... good job, as always, Sir Mullet
Let see mullet man do some hand fishing!
how comfortable are those millennium seats ?
Man I wish I could do this kind of stuff! I'm learnin from watchin!
Dang that hog was thick and healthy, he has definitely been eating from someone's feeder he just slipped up and needed a drink you are exactly right if you take care of the meat properly and let it set in cooler for about 3 to 5 days and keep changing the water and ice until the blood is all out and the meat is pink as long as he hasn't been fighting a bunch and breeding most of the time they will not be stank lol

Cant wait to try wild bore going on my first hunt soon
The clean kill is the difference in good tasting and bad tasting meat
Exactly. A quick clean kill drops the animal quickly and greatly reduces the amount of adrenaline that pumps through the meat. Always good to see people making these clean kills
Nice shot! Is your rifle custom? It looks like it had a shorter barrel.
Is that the new Toor knife?
Def liking that new rifle 👍👍 🇺🇸 LiL Swine & Dine #PigDown. Can you get bacon off a big pig like that?
Welcome back
Was waiting for you to season that little chunk of meat facing the camera😂
The hams have a musk gland do you cut it out?
What kind of line were y’all using
Question I was wondering what firearm used to shoot the Boer
thanks for the upload
Try to tighten your drag before you hook set. Love your video. I want to go hunting with you.

@@thesouthernlife4061 yeah me too I will usually soak them for a week myself and depends what I have going on like you sometimes longer.
i was hoping to see some cutters
I've never had a wild baby hog before. Definitely will be trying to get this done in the very near future!!! Looked dank bro!!
Dude wish I was the neighbor you was sharing that pig with. Looked delicious...
I'm with ya! I've never come across pig meat that was bad.
Great video! Looks delicious 👌🏽
What's that name of the rifle you used? That was badass. I need to get me one of those

What brand is that cutting board
What part of Texas do you live in

That thing needs to go for at least 12 hours!
100% all in how you prep the meat! Big hawgs JUST AS GOOD!
