I wrap the meat that way & also vacuum pack. What also works better is if you can get large flat pieces of small bubble wrap to insulate the vacuum pack bags since they do get brittle. The bubble wrap has a protective quality as well as adding another barrier to make sure 2 years freshness is 2 years & not closer to 1.
Ms. D’Andrea- I am a 66 y/o semi retired lawyer living in State College PA. I only recently figured out to make public comments on TH-cam, but I have been watching several bushcraft/outdoors channels, particularly with the virus shut down. I am giving serious consideration to starting to hunt again, after a 25 year hiatus. I have learned a lot watching your deer hunting videos of last winter, particularly looking and recognizing signs, where deer may be bedding down etc. I watched this video on grinding meat. I wonder whether you have ever tried a vacuum sealer that are available on the market. I started using one last year, and you can freeze meat for ages without freezer burn, and it unthaws as red and fresh as the day you packaged it. Just something that I found helpful at my home. Keep up the good work.
Allie, I got my bow yesterday! PSE EVO NXT 31 70# high letoff. Love it but weary. This bow is no toy. So fast at 60/70#. It is a little heavy for small me but I'll get used to that. So quiet, so smooth. My Rienheart 18 target arrives tomorrow. A "real" bow. So happy 😂👍!!!
Nice video! We basically process our venison grind the same way except I freeze in 5 pound lots. I have a local butcher package up beef fat in 1 pound lots (no beef suet allowed!). I partially thaw 1 package of fat and 1 package of venison pieces and then grind away. We use the beef fat because I feel more comfortable with eating that if we decide to have medium rare burgers and prefer the flavor of beef fat. Thanks for sharing your methods!!!
Very well done, looks delic. My grinder mounts on a table with a leather piece 2 put under the screw when tightening. I use flat 🍪 pans & put grinder meat on them. Other 🍪 pans catch the grinded meat. I also put my grinder parts in the freezer. I use just a hand grinder & keeping the temp of it & the meat scraps is the key to a great finished product. Glad 2 see that I'm not crazy putting all that metal in the freezer.
I don’t use pork in any of my grinds. I’ve had better taste results with beef fat. The beef also allows you to cook medium rare. I don’t like well done venison. To each his own though. That’s the nice thing about prepping your own venison. Do it how YOU like it. Great informative video.
I've found that a little fat mixed in helps hold a hamburger patty together when cooking, but other than that, I prefer without the added fat. You just have to be careful not to cook with high heat or you'll dry it out. Great video Allie!
So jealous!!! So, first year hunting and turkey season is not going great. It's raining nonstop here and you can only hunt till 1pm. But, deer season will be September 28th and I know where I'm at no one is hunting or have hunted in a very long time. Plus have found sheds and seen at least 20+ deer on my trail cam. Can't wait till I harvest my first animal and will be that much closer to being self sufficient.
Hi Allie , fist of all i love your video's keep them coming , i was about to say about using a Vacuum seal packing , but some one has already told you .
I have been wanting to make home made deer gyro meat, with a grinder it looks like it would be easy..never seen/heard any who have done it, but damn, it sounds good. With some fresh tzatziki and home made fry bread, oh yeah, oh yeah.
Hi quick question. when you add pork fat/beef fat/ground pork, do you do it with your first grind of the chunks or second fine grind AND do you add it intermittently so it's dispersed with the venison? Thank you for sharing all this info. it is sooooooo helpful.
Do you have a video on how to sharpen your grinding blades? I have two old vintage electric grinders. I keep sharpening the blades and it seems like I can never get them sharp enough as I’m literally doing handstands trying to push my meat through. Seems like I still can’t get it to cut after sharpening and it clogs with tendons almost immediately that I missed during the trimming process.
@@OutdoorsAllie lol. Thanks. I have way less silver and tendons on my cuts. Then you did put it through the grinder in. It literally clogs them instantly. I guess I’ll have to get better on sharpening.🙏
Well we do everything the same except for two things I used to hand grinder not electric and I use marbled beef fat from the butcher four parts venison the two parts marbled beef fat comes out just like McDonald's
@@OutdoorsAllie I'm going to make a regular cow burger now..jelly like a mofo. * Deer backstrap on a bbq grill sliced thin, brushed in extra virgin olive oil, flipped quick and fast until well done over Mountain Mahogany flame, with only fresh cracked black pepper and some sea salt, makes some bad ass hot finger foods along with a cold one or after a fat J. O h Y eA H
@@OutdoorsAllie good luck. Lots of birds acting crazy all over this year. On another TH-cam channel I watch lots of people were saying the same thing. Here in my part of Kenturkey they are finished! Good luck up there in Penn's Woods country!

Yes, I have used vacuum sealers. They work great in most scenarios (especially fish). I really like the Weston one.

I wish I can hunt as often.....
I miss venison meat....
watching this video puts me in a watery mouth moment....
Get out there as much as you can Retchie!

Beef works great too! Thanks for watching David!
I add the cheapest hamburger I can find and we think it tastes great. And keep up the good work Allie.

You can only hunt until 1pm? What kind of strange rule is THAT!? Hope you have better luck with the rain. Good luck buddy! Go get em!
We can only hunt until Noon here in PA! Stick with it Joshua!
Good to know thanks for. That tip 🙏
Glad to help!
Beautiful....I never knew the freezing trick for your grinder.
Happy to help!
@@OutdoorsAllie You're good people.
Hi Allie , fist of all i love your video's keep them coming , i was about to say about using a Vacuum seal packing , but some one has already told you .
I have one, but it can be a pain sometimes!
I literally just ate the last of my venison last night. 😒 Can't wait till I can go out and get more. 😁 Good job. 👍
NOOOOO. Way too early for running out LOL
@@OutdoorsAllie tell me about it! Got to get an elk this year! 😁
Nice black bear rug!
Thanks for watching!!
May I suggest vacuum packaging for long term freshness.
Yes, it does work well. I have a new one on the way!
I was going to suggest same, you, Allie, process so much of your meat.
Love the video. Thanks for the content, keep them coming
Thanks Stephan!
I have been wanting to make home made deer gyro meat, with a grinder it looks like it would be easy..never seen/heard any who have done it, but damn, it sounds good. With some fresh tzatziki and home made fry bread, oh yeah, oh yeah.
Yes, I used to do that all the time. Its so good!
Killer video as always Allie .. Need a jerky video 👍 Keep up the great info.
Jerky video will come soon!
RRrrrrr, You so funny. The wild Food channel chef. Venison,, it’s what’s for dinner.
LOL its what for dinner!
Do you have a venison chili recipe you’de share with a feller?
Real Deal Allie D.
Thanks for watching!
Good video,keep them coming
Thanks Matt!
I have never heard of putting your utensils in the freezer prior to...what is the reason for that? Great tips!
It helps with the meat flowing through the machine a little easier.
Instead of it turning to mush.
Hi quick question. when you add pork fat/beef fat/ground pork, do you do it with your first grind of the chunks or second fine grind AND do you add it intermittently so it's dispersed with the venison? Thank you for sharing all this info. it is sooooooo helpful.
Absolutely. I add it intermittently throughout the entire process!
Now I’m hungry! Mmm!
Always!
What Genre of music were you listening to?
Wow
new to hunting. have to buy the hunting gear. was wondering if you have to do anything to the meat like cure it someone told me you had to.
Not unless you are making something like jerky or sausage!
Great video. Helpful and informative. At what intervals do you cut in the pork?
Depending on what were making it is usually about 1lb pork to 5lbs of deer.
All right! What time is dinner?
Can you do a video of making jerky?
Yes! Soon!
ATTA GIRL!
Allie good video ! Im a grinding noob why do you freeze the grinder parts?
It helps keep the meat cold. When it gets room temperature it gets mushy and doesn't flow well.
I’ve always vacuum sealed my grind, how long will the meat stay good in the plastic wrap and freezer paper?
I'd guess a couple years. It usually doesn't last that long though!
Do you have a video on how to sharpen your grinding blades? I have two old vintage electric grinders. I keep sharpening the blades and it seems like I can never get them sharp enough as I’m literally doing handstands trying to push my meat through. Seems like I still can’t get it to cut after sharpening and it clogs with tendons almost immediately that I missed during the trimming process.
I don't right now, but I'll add that to the list!
@@OutdoorsAllie lol. Thanks. I have way less silver and tendons on my cuts. Then you did put it through the grinder in. It literally clogs them instantly. I guess I’ll have to get better on sharpening.🙏
I have a crossbow ordered. do you know if iI can shoot wooden bolts with it?
Not sure. I wouldn't recommend it though.
I am drinking allans coffee brandy while I watch this
Well we do everything the same except for two things I used to hand grinder not electric and I use marbled beef fat from the butcher four parts venison the two parts marbled beef fat comes out just like McDonald's
Hand grinder is tough work!
You know how hungry you made me for burgers now 🤤
Burgers for da Boys, then it's Tshirt time before Cabs are Here, oh yeah.
Theyre delicious!
@@OutdoorsAllie I'm going to make a regular cow burger now..jelly like a mofo.

How's the turkey hunting going OA?
Finding birds, no shots yet though.
@@OutdoorsAllie good luck.
Lots of birds acting crazy all over this year.
On another TH-cam channel I watch lots of people were saying the same thing. Here in my part of Kenturkey they are finished!
Good luck up there in Penn's Woods country!
I use beef fat or get the cheapest cuts of beef from my local butchers.
For sure.
Allie what kind of grinder is that?
Weston! Its a tank!
amzn.to/2SQRl5o
Thank you 🙏
What does deer even taste like? I'm too urban to understand.
It's delicious! A unique flavor of its own.
you're going to make hamburger patties and also you can make tamales I hope you know how to make some tamales
Tamales sound awesome!
Ooops first of all
Is there any other meat besides wild game
Nope :)
Puddle of Mudd??? 😅
Alili ești măritată???
