Thread: Meat processing, curing and smoking for when SHTF

    Meat processing, curing and smoking for when SHTF

    At Ike's the other night I was telling some of you about the Panhandle Pioneer Settlement over in Blountstown. They have several classes that would be useful to prepping. Syrup making and hog killing and processing in the fall. Jam, jelly and vegetable processing in the summer. Other events through the year.

    I got the facebook page today. Keep an eye on it for things that may interest you.

    Yeah, that sounds cool.

    curing meat takes weeks. My Br-In-Law has been doing it for decades. I don't have the patience for it and I am glad he does!

    One of my grandfathers was epic at curing pork. Screw pork brains and scrambled eggs. Head cheese aka sauce meat is pretty interesting though.

    Been there many, many times with the blacksmith group. It's a neat place.

    Only digging in on the position of the truth – yes, I defend guns because guns are useful for killing criminals and tyrants – is going to be successful. Only the truth shall set you free.

    Will have to check that out, have been there many times, but didn't know they offered that. We have a family reunion every year in the old gym that is on the property. My father and some of my aunts used that gym in High School.
    If you have been in there and seen all the pictures on the wall. They are in several of them.... Is a cool place. Also BODO of particular interest to you, every October they host Goat Days there, check it out too.

    I went to one of their blacksmithing / knifemaking classes and enjoyed it. Lots of cool old structures and cabins onsite also.
