I have some baby backs ready to go on and some Bourbon and brown sugar beans. It smells good in here and nothing is cooked yet.

Elk hamburgers. Wild game is all we eat for red meat, been like that for 30+ years. The Arctic isn’t exactly home to huge herds of cattle.
***edit*** The jacket is a genuine U.S. Army surplus field jacket. (An M65?) My good luck jacket. My Dad gave it to me. I’ve successfully used it for hunting every year for more then thirty years. HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY TO OUR AMERICAN NEIGHBORS!

2 grills today. On the regular grill ribs, fillets and some dogs. On the Camp chef flat top burgers and Italian sausage/peppers and taters. Too bad it’s 110 forecast for today. But everyone’s in the pool.
 
Grilling later stuff chicken and corn on the cob. Not sure if I need to fire up the grill like jack r said 110 today so may just let it get a suntan. Lol
 
Tri-tip, lamb shish kebab, and fresh elk/lamb/pork sausages for whores-d-overs. Lots of veggies will go on the grill later, and some pineapple. A Brazilian gal I "knew" years ago showed me how they cut it in thick wedges, dust it with a little cinnamon and paprika, and grill it up...

I saw a Justin Wilson show a couple weeks ago. It has been years. I always liked him.
 
It's a rack of St. Louis ribs going on the smoker shortly, to be joined by cole slaw and some homemade chili beans. And a brewski or two to wash it down. :D

Be done about 10? I put mine on at noon and they will be done in about an hour or less.
 
Not on the grill but pork shoulder pan fried in this morning's bacon grease.

I can feel my arteries hardening already.

Hooray statins! (taking an extra...)

The way you hunt, not for fun but for need, is the only way to hunt, is a need in your case not a sport, and for that my respect to you my friend.
 
My wife is feeling sick, so I cook today, pork rib skirt, fried in both side, salt, pepper, fine herbs, then a bottle of apple cyder pour in the pan with the pork meat purple and white onions, let it consume for 45 minutes and 10 minutes before you serve put a green apple and let it cook with the pork, a side of mash potatoes and a beer.
 
Before and after pix.
Four hundred and five pounds of clean, healthy elk meat hanging in the butcher shop. The other photo is morel mushrooms that we picked here in the forest and steaks from that elk. The lettuce, tomatoes and beans that accompanied it all also came from the garden.

That's the way to do it! I really enjoy wild game, especially elk. The morels are icing on the cake. Enjoy! 440'
 
Elk is the best game meat. Even here in AZ.

We agree. We’ve harvested and had most game, in order of preference:
Elk, whitetail, caribou, wild boar, muskox, Dall sheep, moose, mule deer, buffalo. The order can change a bit depending on the animal. Buffalo are last because lots are stringy, but not all are. Some mule deer are gamey, but not all are. Moose are usually pretty good. Caribou are bland, unless you shoot one in mating season, then you can’t eat them.
Shot a 2200 pound buffalo in the pouring rain one time. Two of us skinning and gutting an animal with a head that weighs about 200 pounds, skin that weighs a couple of hundred, back legs that are 500 pounds each. The hump over the shoulders was about 26 inches thick, the bar on the chainsaw was 24. My buddy had to physically crawl inside the gut cavity with a chainsaw to split the final two inches.
Another time caribou hunting when it was minus 42 without the pussy windchill. Froze my kneecap. Great memories of a lifestyle that many will never understand.
