Bump! Thanks. I am feeling the pinch. My husband has a line on a bull Elk. I told him to buy it! Meat is crazy, milk is just out of control. I can't wait to get the garden going, but I am in Minnesota so it will be awhile.

In the mean time I am buying sales, stocking the freezers and baking my own bread. Making my own pizza dough and stock piling dry goods.

I have no idea how the families will survive these prices, I have cut several things off my normal shopping list and will start making bread again also.

I have never made my own egg noodles, but have watched Mom do so and it is not that big a project, just messy.

I would think that elk would cook well in a crockpot.

Again, something that I know very little about, cooking the wild meats.

Hang in there and keep checking back, I think you will see that this thread will have more information, that we all need, than you will find elsewhere in one spot.

We are all in the same boat.
