As a father of 4, my favorite part of these videos is seeing how proud you both are of your kids and including them in the videos. Can't get enough of that! You both are awesome. Can't wait to use the diy kits on the way to me.
My grandpa owned a butcher shop for a long time and continued to process meats for years after. Growing up, his venison bacon was my favorite and I still make it to this day even after his passing. His butcher shop was known for his variety of bacons so it is nice to see more butchers take in these varieties of styles of bacon!
I love how you guys interact with each other, a long with the other members of your family!! Always makes my heart smile watching your videos!! Take care and God Bless you all!!
My local game processing shop does deer bacon like this. It’s phenomenal. Don’t have to fry it, can eat it cold like lunch meat. I like putting it in a wrap with some horseradish sauce 👨🍳
I've been a fan of you guys for years. I'm getting very close to harvesting, growing, and preserving my own food which will be a whole new adventure. I'll soon be a customer, not only a subscriber.
We’ve just recently bought a “ meat” grinder and luv it..we’re going all in with the jerky making from your previously video.. now the bacon is going to be a must ..as a older gentleman, watching you guys interact together makes me miss my family,which used to be quite large.. so the little woman and I , have ourselves and 4 dogs to make these products for.. thx for showing use they way
when we make venison bacon for BLT sandwiches we use a bread loaf pan to form it before placing it into the smoker, after its smoked and sliced its perfect size for the sandwich
I used your DIY maple bacon kit. I've been making bacon for about 4 years now. Your product was great and easy to use. I did add liquid smoke to it. Before I would use real Maple syrup in my bacon, but it never did get enough of that maple flavor. This kit works great.
You guys are meat scientists as well as butchers. You constantly push the envelope and challenge yourselves to go even beyond what others do on a regular basis. You teach as well as show by example. Thanks Guys
I made 18 pounds, 3 pans. Tweaked each one, jalapeños in 1, cinnamon swirl another, and red pepper flakes & cajun seasoning in the other. Outstanding! so versatile too. Even made a pizza using the bacon pieces. Wonderful po boy sandwiches! Thanks for sharing!
I've been watching you guys since the beginning! I love how you guys are trying to get people processing at home. Your videos just keep getting better. Awesome Grilla Grill. I've had the Chimp for 3 years.
I can feel the growth happening with your content. Anticipation for what’s to come is at the extreme. Another quality video of the Bearded Butchers. Love it fam 💯
You guys are doing a great job. I'm your age, and i can remember my mom telling me to ride my bike to see Fred, the meat cutter. Nice man. And I'd leave the shop with dinner, shank bone for a dime to give to my dog.
I just gave birth and have been binge watching your videos while up at night with the newborn. Everything looks delicious! Husband got his first deer this year and, although I canned it all as chunks and sausages, I’m looking for some fun snacky things to make next time!
Brings back so many memories of a very close friend who passed away last year. He always had venison bacon and the maple was his favorite. Really tasted great on a grill
@@TheBeardedButchers stuff your deer bacon into snack sticks and cook it hanging. I don't recommend jalapeño cheddar in deer bacon sticks. It's weird tasting. Lol.
We have been making moose bacon for over 20 years. Same process you demonstrate, just different seasoning mix. I do not use a cake pan. We used disposable aluminum loaf pan with wax paper between the loaf pan and ground meat.
Just saw this vid about a week ago. Got me thinking. I had just ordered a new slicer, I had a pork shoulder roast and a 2lb pack of ground turkey in the freezer, have a bottle of Black left, still have Prague #1. Figured I could make this work. Holy smokes...! Ground everything, seasoned it with salt, sugar and cure, mixed it for about 10 minutes in a kitchenaide and formed a 2300g loaf. Smoking took 6.5 hours, but, like you, I started @185° for 3.5 hours, then turned it up so I could finish. After chilling, slicing, and cooking, it came out wonderful.
Man am I glad I watched this video. There is a butcher east of St. Louis I take some deer meat to and have them make it into bacon. I went out to look in the freezer in the garage and found a couple pounds from last year I forgot about. I know what I’m having for breakfast! Its so good I make the two hour trip twice just to get some. I think they say they use 2 pork to 1 deer on theirs. Not sure but it looks like they make it in a bologna shape and then flatten it a little into an oval then cut it to make into half moon kind of shapes. I’ve cooked it on a griddle and on a grill. Just be careful on the grill if you leave too long it will catch fire and burn to nothing. Love your vids as usual. Really nice to see how things are done. I may try the deer bacon myself next time. Thanks guys!
That's a sweet looking recipe! Love all your videos. I've learned so much about butchering beef, pork, and deer from you guys. Looking forward for more videos and trying some of your products and merchandise. Gotta Love Them Beards!!
Getting ready to try this this weekend. I'm at work listening and kinda watching. Just filled in the revision table on the drawing as "issued for coffee". 😂 they were talking about the black seasoning at the time. 😂 hazards of watching at work. Great channel. Lots and lots of information. I've got me meat your maker grinder primed and ready. Use the original on everything. I'm so looking forward to this. Thank you gentlemen. God bless.
what a great idea, would never have considered making bacon out of ground product ! I had to grab a cold beer to drink while watching you guys eat the bacon, wow. Awesome, will definitely try this, keep up the great vids , cheers from NZ
Thank you for sharing this and making it available for us non commercial folks. I watched the whole video and had to place an order. Can't wait to get some venison bacon made up and shared either family/friends. Awesome stuff gents! Cheers.
*The Bearded Butchers* Knocked it outa the park on this one fellas, had me drooling, lolooo. Thank-you so much for taking the time to show us how its done. God Bless.
Meat your maker should sponsor you guys and let you give out a discount to their products! That would be awesome. I’ve been looking into getting a setup for making sausages and now bacon is on the list. Awesome recipes my bearded brothers. Keep up the awesome work. I’ll be buying your product shortly once I start buying the equipment. Thanks guys and keep the video rollin!
Very excited for the DIY kits. Watching your channel has me thinking I might finally get my hunting license and go out during deer season. Homemade venison bratwurst? Yes please, and I think my friends would enjoy them too 🙂
Looks excellent. We processed two pigs today and made some sausage. The trimmed fat goes in the freezer and is waiting on a whitetail. Gonna make this bacon!
@@TheBeardedButchers it was great. It wasn't cinnamon swirl or the black seasoning lol. Tasted like pork bacon but leaner. It didn't last long. I bet yalls won't either. It's that good.
@@TheBeardedButchers the place is called Livingstons custom meat processing in hopkinsville ky. They also make a deer ham. I haven't gotten around to trying it but u was recommended by the some of the guys who work there. I'd like to see yall take a stab at it too.
Im so glad you gave those of us not in USA (and not sugar addicted), the salt amounts to make our own. 7 😅ounces of salt in 25 pounds of meat is 1.75% salt for us metric nerds
@BroCallMeCai sweet bacon is pretty rare in most of the world. I was disappointed to see most north American bacon, unless marked 'no sugar' had sugar in the cure (although not generally as much as this).
I saw this video a while back and I finally got around to making it this weekend, I won’t BS you, I just used the maple sausage blend I could find but it turned out great 👍, thanks for the great idea for using venison trim for something other than smokies 👍👍
I just made this venison bacon after watching your video. I don't really taste much of a bacon flavor in the finished product. It has a real good flavor, but just really tastes like my jerky I make. I'm glad about that though. That's better than wasting 10 pounds of venison.
Love the videos, been watching for a while but was informed in a earlier video that people weren’t subscribing…sorry I was one of them…subscribed now. Good job thanks
I realized while watching that texturally it looks like dutchloaf that I was raised up eating. Different spices but there's nothing like a fried dutchloaf, tomato, and lettuce sandwich. Lol Great vid y'all!
Nice, looking forward to getting my sausage and bacon supplies from you guys. On a unexpected positive, my 7yo Daughter watched this with me and wants me to tag a Deer so we can make this.
Had my first venison bacon this year, freaking awesome. Much better and more filling than normal bacon. Unfortunately only have 2 lbs of it. Nice video boys!
You guys recently sent out some Rope Sausage to us at our Meat Department to try and it was damn good! Me and the guys cooked it up and made some Sandwiches! Thank you
I made deer bacon for the first time this year using the LEM kit. I added a lot of pepper to it and made pepper bacon. It was awesome. Now I think I want to try your sugar maple🤔🤔🤔👍
Love the smile on Logans face knowing that is a deer he harvested himself! We poor folk over in Rittman have to get the hand mixer out for this, we don't have the expensive attachment like you Creston folk lol great video fellas
Logan, you shouldn't be so talkative, awesome, that you got a deer and your dad and brother made some amazing venision bacon!!! Keep on hunting buddy, need to have many more times like this to make memories for your kids someday!!!!
