Fresh bacon deer Burgers are in the freezer.
I killed a doe Sunday afternoon, then skinned and de-boned all the meat. I put it in a big garbage bag on ice until Monday evening when I trimmed all the fat, gristle membrane and sinew from it. Tuesday evening I ground all the deer meat (except the backstraps and tenderloins) along with 10 pounds of bacon. After blending all the ground meat together we made patties for burgers and placed them in the freezer. Tonight we vacuum packed all the burger patties and put them in the freezer. The patties averaged 1/2 pound each and it worked to 48 burger patties. My kids can't wait until I get back in town Friday so we can grill the burgers. There is not much better than a bacon deer burger!
