The Ultimate Guide to Home Butchering by Monte Burch

The Ultimate Guide to Home Butchering by Monte Burch

From field dressing, skinning, and boning out a whole deer to efficiently plucking ducks and bleeding out hogs, this is the one-stop guide to help you become more self-sufficient in preparing your meat for your table. With more than forty years of experience butchering domestic animals, game, and birds, award-winning outdoor writer and photographer Monte Burch presents this complete guide for butchering many types of livestock or wild animals. Learn how to butcher cows, chickens, goats, hogs, deer, turkeys, rabbits, and more, with simple and easy-to-follow, step-by-step photographs and illustrations. Burch also provides recommendations on which tools (knives, paring knives, meat scissors, meat grinders, shrink-wrappers) to use for the task at hand. He lists detailed instructions on how to butcher each animal and use each part, so nothing goes to waste. Now you’ll be able to prepare meat for salting and curing, freezing, sausage making, and more. Skyhorse Publishing is proud to publish a broad range of books for hunters and firearms enthusiasts.

MONTE BURCH was born and raised on a farm near Clinton, Missouri, where the timbered Ozark hills meet the prairies. In an area rich in outdoor and Native American (he is part Cherokee) heritage, he spent much of his childhood roaming the countryside hunting, fishing, and camping. After working toward a college degree in music, he decided to return to his first love, the outdoors, and went to work for Workbench magazine. Six years later he became a full-time freelance writer. He has been an outdoor writer for more than four decades and has authored more than fifty books, including Country Crafts and Skills (page 37) and The Ultimate Guide to Making Outdoor Gear and Accessories (page 113). He lives on an Ozark hills farm in Humansville, Missouri with his wife Joan.
