You've eaten worse. And been sober!

Politicians are a lot like squatch. You really need to braise in a crockpot or dutch oven to break it down properly.
I'm not eating your beeve.About 20 years ago I counted the leagal deer you could take. We had more open bonus numbers then. It was 13 if you hit luck of the draw in the 2 state drawings. More if you have crop depridation tags, (# determined by area game biologists).
The largest deer in Indiana are along the Ohio river (check state records) in more ag areas they avg. ~ 150 lbs. live weight. 60% cut out. That’s the weight of meat, bone in.
After hunting for a couple years you and one other person can Easley process a deer in a daylight hours of one winter day. Cut up and wrapped. Excluding grinding burger and sausage. If you can some of it add another day. This is with 3 knives and 1 hand saw.
If you eat venison at my house I’ll bet you a cup of coffee you can’t tell the difference between my venison from one of my beeves unless your experienced at eating each.
This is a learned skill set. Not to be expected from a novice, but it is an easily learned skill with an experienced teacher.
If you live an agrarian life style, 4 people can make do with 2 venison per yr. 3 is better. This is in addition to upland game and self caught fish, (not sport fishing). My 2 cents.
What is a beeve?I'm not eating your beeve.
OK, steers, heifers, cows, the best t-bone I ever had came from a 4 yr old bull. It’s probably the only “u.s. graded prime“ animal I ever raised.I'm not eating your beeve.
...it's what I do with this deadass animal after I do. I'd have to hang and clean it in the field and take it straight to a processor, because I don't have chest freezers and meat processing tools or everything freezer packaging for a whole animal right
Turn her over, you're eating the wrong side!They taste like s--t
You can break a deer down and bring home just the meat or even quarters, but it is a lot of work especially out in the weather. Having someplace out of the weather is nice, but not necessary. The biggest thing is to get it gutted as quick as possible, you do not have to hang it.Those logistics are what stop me from deer hunting right now. It's not putting a shot on a deer, it's what I do with this deadass animal after I do.

Logistics matter when you get into game animals too big to be stuffed in a backpack.
Well since we are talking survival let’s not forget the “gut pile” everyone throws out is actually the most nutrient packed portion of the whole carcass.
That's true. If I wanted it bad enough I suppose I could gut it, drag it back to the car, quarter it, wash it out with a couple gallon jugs of water, then wrap it in trash bags and chuck it in the hatchback for the drive home.You can break a deer down and bring home just the meat or even quarters, but it is a lot of work especially out in the weather.
