Butcher Here!, Buy AS MUCH MEAT AS YOU CAN! SHORTAGE COMING!

That is all good, until the first time you shoot one.

Then, they disappear.

Most people have no clue what life is like without electricity.

Here in the south, we traditionally only killed large animals such as hogs and cows, in the dead of winter.

In 60 degree or warmer weather, you probably couldn't skin and butcher the animal before the meat spoiled.

There was no fresh meat from livestock in the summer, down South, before refrigerators. Only smoked hams, seasoning meat, bacon, and salt pork. People ate mostly soups and vegetables, with just enough meat for seasoning.

My grandmother only had an icebox, and I can remember that the ONLY fresh meat she had, during warm weather, was chicken and freshly caught fish. Sometimes we would call up bobwhite, and shoot them. That was some good eating, with rice and gravy!!

There were plenty of squirrel and rabbits, but we didn't kill them, until after the first frost, because of wolves.

My grandmother had electricity in her home, but it was only for a light bulb in each room. There was no running water, and the toilet was a big chair with a hole cut in the seat, with a slop jar under it, on the back porch. Her cook stove was a huge wood fired one, that kept the kitchen unbearable in the summer.

Water came from a well, and drinking water was always in a wash basin, on the side porch. A dipper hung on a nail above the wash basin. Everybody drank out of that dipper.

All of the kids took a bath in a big washtub in the backyard. Cold water, two at a time in the tub. We all used the same water to bathe in.

I remember what it was like, before modern conveniences.

I HOPE NONE OF US HAVE TO ENDURE THAT!!

thanks for the warning

I'm lucky to be living in Norway, where grass, barley, sheep and cows are pretty much the only things farmers can harvest from the nature, at least along the coast.

impossible when you're pretending to play capitalism but you really aren't

Tekman,

sounds like your from Palestine Texas! ...maybe my kinfolk!!

Got some kin in Texas. Rayborn's, they are.

I'm from Sumrall, Mississippi.

Go vegan and die, peasants.

Everyone is concerned about their physical survival. How about your souls? Anything can come in and take your stash. Mobs, power outage, tornado. Most are planning for the wrong thing.

Texas has about a billion wild pigs running around.

I have the feeling a few of them would end up on the dinner table if things got rough.

How long will that meat last for in a freezer?

1 year before it goes bad or?

Well if Biden says we can only have one burger a month then there's no problem, right?
Or maybe your just trying to boost sales in your "indistry"?

Lol @ Grove street. Brock here. Wheres the hangout spot at these days?

NICE! It would really suck though if they suddenly have rolling black-outs where you’re at...

this freezer...theres 2 years worth of protien in it

Nice preps bro...we need another prep thread



i got a bit more sustainable setup. I got a creek in the backyard of my bugout shack. I prefer fish myself. Stocked only with canned goods and necessities. Just converted it to Solar of course, with a back up generator in case. But its a simple setup. Not very big but i would be OK if nukes flew

OP is correct.

Uncle Intel: chain family restaurants, on-site cafes for businesses and hospitals, fast-food outlets, etc will be selling fake meat creations that are supposedly healthier.

Think spaghetti with fake meat sauce, stuffed peppers, fake meatloaf, will be pushed as real meat becomes much pricier.

Fast-food outlets will also be pushing new kid friendly desserts as a depressed population starts craving even more fat & sugar.

Meals in Vegas too expensive? Doughnut chains are exploding.
Goodbye to cheap steak & prime rib dinners, as well as 1/2 lb cheeseburger & fries specials in off-strip cafes.

The cost is larger for everyone else. I had convinced myself to be a vegetarian when young, 20-30. The carnivore in me was happiest at different stages of development. We are not like other animals, we need a variety of food, for different biological needs and schedules based upon the weather.

frozen meat last forever, the taste may go a bit bland but it lasts forever...


People have eatin 20,000 year old wooly mammoth meat and didnt die

You can get a fair amount of good breakfast sausage off of one. I have had wild hog on many occasions. It does have a bit of a gamey taste, but when ground into a seasoned sausage, you can't really taste the gaminess.

I have a 12kW, propane powered, portable generator. I wired up a 50 A, 240v plug that is connected to my breaker box that allows me to feed the entire house wiring system.

Obviously, I cannot power everything in the house at one time, but it is nice to be able to use what we want and not have extension cords running everywhere.

Last time I looked, the lakes, rivers and streams here are still full of fish, and the woods are still full of live meat.

Yup.

I saw this thread a month ago and have to say, I am not seeing any rises. 90% ground from grass fed cattle is still $4.90/pound, 80% is $4.40. I saw another thread talk about chicken shortage. I buy 20lb bags of fresh chicken breasts from my butcher for less than $1/lb. Prices have been this for 2-3 years.

Half a cow still averaging 3.79 a pound processed. I split one each fall with a coworker.

I currently have about 400 +/- cans of quality Sardines.

I am good with the meat department for awhile

When meat gets too high I just refuse to buy it. It can stay on the shelf until it rots for all I care. Thats mind mindset for everything when I go shopping these days.

Went to the mall last week. Clothes stores are bare and what is there looks like leftover fashion from a few years ago. Same thing for places like Ross, TJMaxx etc. Electronics, appliances, all hard to come by. Used car prices shooting up. We definitely have problems and I don't see it getting better.
