EP:64 | The Ins & Outs of Processing Deer Meat
This week on The Gamekeeper Podcast we dig deep into the world of processing venison from two different angles. First, Brad Lockwood joins us on the phone to discuss “harvest to freezer” from a DIY standpoint. Brad has been a very prominent name in the DIY processing biz for years, and we spent time gleaning ideas and techniques from him including aging meat. Next up is Chris Herring, a well-respected local game meat processor, who joins us in the studio. Chris clears the air by answering a few touchy questions we’ve always wanted to ask, like “how do I know I’m getting my own deer back,” but also talks about some specialty products that can be made, packaging options, and others. This one was very educational, but we still managed to get a few laughs in as well. Listen, learn and enjoy.

This week we dive into the world of deer meat after eating canned venison with our GameKeeper Butchery guest, Sam Kohler. After trying his canned venison lo-mein dish, we can’t help but share the different ways we handle and prepare wild game. We discuss everything from shot placement and field care, to aging and processing. Sam even shares some ways to prepare wild game organs that’s quite a deviation from grandma’s fried deer steaks. If you enjoy eating deer meat you don’t want to miss this one. Enjoy! Listen wherever you get your podcast!

EP:47 | Ticks Ticks Ticks!
This week we learn more about the dreaded tick than we probably wanted to know. Did you know that by the time the tick gets on you, it has been on two other hosts during its development from nymph into a mature tick? Did you know ticks quest? We didn’t either, but learned that while listening to Dr. Steve Demarais of MSU fully explain ticks and how they can be a source for so many ailments. Later on Dr. Ned Miller explains Lyme and the Alpha-gal (allergy to red meat) along with what to look for after a tick bite. Finally Dave Larsen explains proven ways to keep yourself safe and tick free. It’s an informative episode designed to help keep you and yours safe. Enjoy. Listen wherever you get your podcast!
