Now, I like venison done in a heavy ceramic dutch oven that has a good heavy ceramic lid. Toss in a roast, onion, carrot, taters garlic, bay leaf, montreal steak seasoning, and then pour in chicken broth to cover the roast. With the heavy ceramic, I can just do this on the stovetop. Low. Forever, ha. Then, at mealtime, the meat and veggies get separated from the broth, I feed the meat and veggies to the family, and I mostly have the broth! That's my favorite part! What I don't slurp up makes awesome gravy, if you're into that.
Now, liver is a different story. For me, venison liver needs to be verrrry fresh, There's nothing about liver that will get better with aging, as far as I'm concerned. Slice and slap those puppies in cornmeal, seasonall, and then NOT cook it to death. But that's soooo rich, I can only consume a little bit. If hubby gets his deer on our property, he knows to run the liver to me, before he does much anything else. That liver will hit the pan before it has a chance to cool off. A good hot pan helps, maybe just a tad of bacon grease. None of that slimy liver and gravy for me, thanks!
So, I have gardened all my life, but have never tried gardening as a snowbird. Gardens in both places? How's that work with planting and harvesting?

My buddy hunts my property and hooks me up with back yard venison and it‘s delicious. The back strap and tenderlion is like filet mignon you would never know the differance . He thin sílices what he calles a roast cooked rare yumm . Evan the chop meat with no pork or beef fat added , the burgers are to die for . Yep I got some really tasty criters running about but I must say its a lot of work I see all what he does . he wastes nothing all the scraps he cooks up and brings by for my chickens

I'll have to get some tamari next time I drive to the city. I'll let you know then. Never had bear meat. No bear season in my corner of the state. Definitely on the short list of hunting trips. Been a long time since I ate goat on the regular, now ya got me wanting a goat roast. Your seeds have definitely grown me some fine ganja! That purple satellite loves our soil here in the driftless. Since legalization I've been trying to make outdoor growing a thing here. Sharing clones of the purple satellite has definitely got a handful of newbies hooked on outdoor. Out of all the clones I passed out PS was the favorite. You suggested I try the gmg next so im going with the Oaxaca gold lol. Until I pop those seeds here are some updates on the PS x FNG. If you every need any beans tested in an outdoor setting i got a extra spot in the garden.

Your garden looks awesome

Good to hear about the purple satellite can’t wait to get into that one outdoors myself!

Hey @Nannymouse!
All the food prep above is making me hungry! Especially all the treats described by @Old Piney! DAMMMN!
As far as gardening It really is a plus to have fresh organic produce most of the year. There are things that grow better up North like Tomatoes and peppers! Here you fight insects, blight, birds, it's just crazy, I call it Jurasic park gardening. Squash does not grow well down here either. So coming south most of the car is loaded up with long storage produce like Potatoes squash and canned produce. Going North Potatoes that are shorter storage dehydrated greens but best of all is the Southern Creole onions we grow here. A red onion that is super tear gas pungent and can last up to one year. Tonights dinner is our home grow organic bananas and an organic apple from the market since we went out for a late lunch and I pigged out on Sushi! Gotta have your treats! HAHA
Anyway Fun gardening and Happy Holidays to all!

Love the winter gardening activities, just great stuff.

I try to use my winter lights to grow more than just cannabis. This year I am trying some mini green beans from Renee's Seeds that are bred for container gardening. I have about 8 plants per gallon sized pot and they are bursting with flowers this week. Also am trying sprouting some peas on hemp mats in the one square foot micro tent for salad shoots. I love the micro tent for seed starting and have a small heat mat for bread making underneath, with a single 7 watt LED bulb. I start all my seeds in here including tomatoes, peppers. And last year I had 80+ alpine strawberry seeds that are now all out in my gardens happily over wintering.

Oaxacan Gold fem and two unsexed Mountain Golds in the veg.

Looks great!
Just wondering if The Purple Satellite sped up the flower time?

Sorry just saw this, yes I believe that cross did cut it down by a couple weeks! I'm still vaping the MG from last year's crop and All I can say is Mountain Gold's the best quality high I've ever had! It is so clear and clean to be almost clinical, just great for any night out. Keeping making that cross Vermontman!
