That was a fine and thoughtful thing you did for your wife.
You have professional knowledge on how to work with meat.
Or more experience than the average Carnivore.
We have a meat house at the farm. We have a recipe for smoked beef link sausage that is over 100 years old.
A lot of wild game has been slaughtered there. We do not kill and cut our beef cattle. Too big an undertaking.
I grew up on the farm. I’m 77 now. We have owned/operated farms in this county since 1889. (county was originally cut up in 1885)
Before that we were in Coryell county, near Gatesville (in Hay Valley)
