My two finest rams that I ever produced wouldn’t sell at my price. So being a practical man, rather than give all my years of breeding away for $79/cwt, I slaughtered them, hung them for 10 days and processed the saddle of each for the table and froze the rest for the dogs.

387#’s of mutton. I think they look glorious.

We have a thread for cigars, another for whiskey. Figured I’d invite a crowd and start a thread for what is for dinner tonight.

That looks great. I've got a pan of beans and a skillet of chicken thighs in a homemade apricot BBQ sauce going on the Traeger.

I don't do mutton. I can play like I am impressed with lamb.

Also a porchetta I made the back straps are from a wild hog but ours don’t have enough fat for the belly. So that’s a Costco stunt pig. I highly recommend this for feeding a camp full of men! Weighed almost 17lbs when done before I cooked it.
 
Dinner is usually my lightest meal of the day. One thing that I like to cook (especially in the summer) is chicken piccata. I'll usually get some chicken breasts from the store and butterfly them. The tops get made into a piccata and the bottoms get cubed up for chicken tacos. Here's dinner for one with a bit of angel hair pasta & a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

Love chicken and veal piccata my wife cooks that a good bit always a hit in our house!
 
@thriller i love raw pictures. Here’s the rams on my rail in pic#1, a portion of the shoulder and neck of one half of a ram (the packs share) for my handler to feed while I’m on safari in pic#2, and loin chops of one side of saddle in pic#3

Thanks for sharing all your work and love of good food.

I love mutton and those chops look absolutely mouthwatering ! Whenever I’m in New York, I always grab a rare mutton chop at the legendary Keen’s Steakhouse.

I love cooking too. These are pan seared Sambar venison backstrap steaks (rested in dry aged beef fat), sunny side up fried eggs, thrice fried goose fat potato wedges & Chimichurri sauce.

You talking of breeding rams. My dad years ago crossed cracker cows with angus. I sure he was not the first. But the crackers and longhorn here was going out of favor for beef cattle. But we thought the cross made some of the best beef.

Now for supper
Deer stew with potatoes,sweet potato’s, tomato,cauball pepper , carrots and a few snapbeens and souredough bread

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
Beautiful Aardwolf for our Spanish client and good friend Alberto

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
