Venison, Venison
The picture in this post brings a smile to my face. Unfortunately, my freezer hasn’t looked like this in over a year. But after my opening day success this year, as you can tell, it’s pretty full.
We got a call yesterday afternoon from the processor, and my wife happily picked up our future table fare early yesterday evening. The beautiful thing about this picture is that we already have a few meals planned that we will use the venison in. If there is venison in the freezer, you can be sure that you will find it included in bunch of our meals. We love using the burger in goulash, potato soup, and spaghetti. We even throw it in lasagne, tacos, and even – and I hate to admit this – an occasional Hamburger Helper meal as well. And of course you haven’t lived until you’ve had venison roast in the crock pot. Mmmm!
I’m glad our freezer already looks like that this early in the season, and I’m hoping I can add some more venison to the freezer as well. Thankfully we have a chest freezer that doesn’t have much in it, because the normal freezer is looking a little full.
Hunting happiness is a full freezer. Now I just need to start to fill the other one.

That looks like a very nice freezer, do you want to trade? LOL
Always good to have a freezer full of meat for the year.
I like having a freezer full of venison too – hopefully Hubby gets a few deer this year!
Good thing you have a nearly empty chest freezer…Good luck on filling it up with tasty venison.
I love when the freezer is full to. We have a stand alone freezer that we are usually able to fill up. About 12 deer are enough to fill it up and we are usually able to do it! Enjoy the deer dinners that are on the way!
Congrats on filling your freezer! Our supply is dwindling a bit as we haven’t connected yet this year. However, I think my husband may have another opportunity for elk this fall. Otherwise, we may have to dust off the shotgun and try and fill the freezer with some pheasant.
