Here are the cold cannon potatoes FULL of butter and cream

I'd say my ducks were vegan but they ate a lot of bugs during their lives.

>>15286610
Damn dude , that looks amazing!

Sizzling away
Wont be long now

>>15286655
That looks like pork. Lifeless and bland. You didn't pat it dry either did you?

>>15286667
No but i patted your mom dry.


Oh no, some blood is oozing out( much like anons mom) of my steak!
I hope no vegans disobeyed my advice and stayed here to see that lol

>>15286617
Ty i raised, slaughtered, and butchered him myself. This is a different duck than the one i had for xmas. I salt cured that one and then dried the skin up. The meat was super tender and flavorful. I want to make duck prosciutto.

Cant want to start incubating the next generation of duck dinners! Im so proud of these guys.

>>15286696
Anon, you are fucking super baddass and i am proud as fuck to have you in this thread

Crisped up real nice
Now it can finally rest

>how do you know if someone's a vegan? don't worry, they'll tell you

This applies equally to you
Almost everyone eats meat and trying to virtue signal to other meat eaters how much of a meat eater you are is embarrassing, like you're desperately searching for an identity and have to seek the validation of others on a tanzanian lithography forum for doing something extremely ordinary

>>15286728
Cool your tits anon, sorry i made that crack about your mom

>>15286716
this is a horrible sear you are a faggot

>>15286785
It was good enough for me. I dont like to let it go too long because I like mines pretty rare.
In fact , I considered just having it raw

>>15286728
Nope, wrong faggot. Meat eaters only circle jerk eating meat when there are vegans around. Unlike vegans, what we eat isn’t our personality. Probably because people who eat meat just so happen to not be faggots and trannies and kikes.

>>15286696
And they don't even suspect they're gonna be the super stars in the next Christmas dinner

>>15287019
Nah they probably aren't
I only slaughter excess males. Most of those are my egg demons. They are going to hatch the next generation, then I will get some new males to keep them from inbreeding. But most of these guys are too old at this point to be next Christmas dinner. A nice stew though.

Lets just leave it at this: I started with 40.
And next Christmas I'm hoping for goose :3

>>15287081
Was it nice and fatty ?

>>15286728
Butthurt vegan detected

>>15288983
Of course! My fave thing about cooking duck is all the wonderful fat I get to strain out and cook with afterwards. I love my fat duck pigs

>>15290081
Is the fat kind of gamy and greasy or is it nice like chicken fat ?

>>15290418
I would say its like chicken fat. Its great for fryong potatoes in and is more bountiful. You can get a healthy amount of fat per duck.

>no vegans aloud

What if they are quiet though? Another case of carnist brain rot

>>15290580
Vegans are never quiet as you have clearly demonstrated.

I love how vegans need to use derogatory terms for meat eaters and other normal human beings but being vegan is such an insult in and of itself that we don't even need to make up an insulting term.

>>15290580
>What if they are quiet though?
But you are not being quiet anon

>>15286610
Looks bland and boring, yikes.
> Inb4 HURDURRR meat doesn't need herbs and spices

>>15290842
Really? I can see rosemary on there and I am sure he used plenty of salt and pepper.
Probably garlic in there somewhere as well
Those root veg are also gonna have a ton of flavor and the fat will be wonderful
I dont see how it could be bland

>>15290983
:3 It's okay, that's a different duck I used. Though I always use spices. No rosemary. I prefer marjoram along with salt and pepper.

The duck I did for Christmas had no marjoram, for some reason I couldn't find it. Fortunately I had fresh thyme which I put into the cavity of the bird, along with apples and onion, and also rested the bird on some fresh thyme when I roasted him. I should have taken a photo but I was busy that day. I salt cured the duck for a long time, about 36 hours. Then rinsed the duck out and let it dry for another 12 hours. Then I scored the skin, prepared vegetables. I used potatoes, the last buttercup squash from my garden, onion, and carrot. And of course I added some fresh ground pepper (I didn't salt because of the salt curing and it's a good thing I didnt)

I can tell you that my ducks never end up bland. Even if I didn't use spices the meat is so dark and rich it would still be flavorful.

I think this person might just be butthurt because the turkey they got for bong Christmas was rotten.

im vegan

>>15292274
you need to leave this thread at onced

>>15292649
no

>>15292274
going to change over in the new year how hard is this to keep up? is it just b12 and iron pills i take? or multivitamins?

>>15286367
>meat eater (not judging desu) talking about vegans
You hate vegans so much because you know they tickle that little conscience of yours that you're too weak to deal with. And because it's about more than just animal suffering. It opens up a tsunami of related ideas and perspectives about life and reality. Anyway, medium rare is kino in my experience, even when you're tripping off meat sweats after.

>>15286742
>>15286808
>>15286838
Gay as fuck, why don't you suck each other off

>>15286785
Based Anon. The duck looks fantastic but the steak is completely fucked.

Imagine virtue signalling about eating meat and then not wearing your steak probably. Sudoku is the only answer left.

>>15290573
>>15286367
Are you having a stroke you fucking faggot? Just how far are you?

>>15293493
>You hate vegans so much because you know they tickle that little conscience of yours that you're too weak to deal with.
This is what vegan believe
Your religion is bullshit anon just like the rest of them

>>15293983
>religion
Veganism is a lifestyle and ideology. Nice try though.
>>15293283
B12 is fortified in most milks, tofu, cereals; hell even energy drinks. It's not necessary anymore.
Iron is best found in leafy greens and is the most common deficiency in the world (and most people aren't vegan)
I would recommend taking a multivitamin regardless of your diet as the average person has 8 vitamin deficiencies.

>>15294584
>ideology
Its just another religion anon

>>15294777
Trips confirmed
Plant worshiping vegans eternally btfo

>>15294929
Thanks for the support anon, these vegans just dont know when to stay down

>>15292274
*a fag

>>15295095
There are plenty of good meat eating americans that are gay.
No need to homophobic

Veges fuck off. This is the meat thread, bitches.

>>15295187
You tell those shetbeg veegs anon.
Fucking feminist shetbegs

>>15295346
What the fuck is that supposed to be?

>>15286367
>no vegans aloud
what about mute vegans? Or vegans that whisper quietly?

>>15286367
Also
>holluday
that's not even close

>>15286696

Absolutely based

>>15286367
Could you possibly be any more of a lefty troll?

>>15295698
Are you saying he is trolling lefties or he is a lefty ?

>>15286367
Why are grass fed beef burgers so fucking good?

>>15297661
I actually prefer corn fed

>>15297661
Because vegan meat tastes better

>>15299875
>vegan meat
what?

>>15286696
I'm hoping to get a few before hunting seasons ends. Would like to bag at least six

>>15301282
How hard are they to catch?

>>15293283
Why?

i made a goose for the firts time this xmas
it turned out really well but i made a lot of mistakes/ did things that i won't do again
i'm going to make some bastardized gumbo out of the leftovers
>>15298922
there's a reason beef is fed on grain silage and it's not because it's cheaper than fucking grass and hay

>>15293493
Nah man. I think about life and death all the time. I think about suffering too. Including animal suffering and the role humans play in animal husbandry and what makes a human have a healthy relationship with the life around them.

My conclusions and experiments all led to the same conclusion. Livestock is incredibly important, we need livestock just as much as livestock needs us. And our relationship with them needs to be healthy since it reflects our relationship with all life.

So I raised my own. It's a bit surreal looking at a bunch of cute baby animals and knowing that you are going to slaughter a bunch of them someday. But you shed those thoughts once you get to work and you learn about them, you don't feel any guilt, you don't have time. Your entire life is devoted to caring for these creatures, you see them express joy and work hard so you get to see that expression as much as possible. When you see them distressed it distresses you and you do everything in your power to avoid said stress.
When the day comes everything is planned out so there is as little stress and pain as possible. I have envisioned myself in my animals position many times.

I was really getting ready for guilt when big harvest came. But it never came. I gave the animal a good life and a quick and painless death. A "good" death maybe some would call it. Instead of guilt, I felt a strange sense of pride.

A vegan wouldn't understand. But now I'm obsessed with it. I want livestock that live a good life and never even see their death coming. I want their last moments to be filled with joy. A good meal on an empty belly, their last thoughts being how happy they are to get such delicious food, and then the eternal nothing that awaits us all.

>>15301571
Ohh! Tell me more. What did you do wrong? How was the goose? How much fat does it render? *w* tell me everything

>>15301645
i follwed this recipe pretty much verbatim
https://www.thespruceeats.com/roast-goose-and-chestnut-stuffing-recipe-435753

it renders a ton of delicious fat that was one mistake i made kind of not expecting it and wasting a bunch
the preboiling phase sort of helps hasten the rendering and makes the meat very tender and juicy and i'd imagine is an important step because a lot of people told me goose was greasy and this definitely was not.. but the whole boil in foil thing was kind of a giant pain in the ass and the stock that it produced was pretty weak especially since it's a deboned goose
next time i will try just steaming it in a pan before roasting and then make stock with all the bones separately
i will also only stuff the breast next time and make confit from the legs because the cooking time discrepancy is even wider than in say, chicken or turkey
the cooking times in the recipe i used are completely whack insane.. like 3 hours too long
i used a thermometer thank god but i still overcooked it a tiny bit in order to get the sear right on the skin
if i cooked it according to the times in the recipe the meal would have been completely destroyed
and i won't bother with the foie gras in the stuffing again because it's a waste of foie gras

>>15301629
Duck Nazi is that you?

>>15301769
Thanks for the information! Just wondering how it compares to duck? Did you drain the fat into a jar after you roasted it and save it? Thats what I did with my ducks.

I'll definitely be comfiting the goose legs and thighs and oven roasting the breasts when I raise geese next year.

I think I'd just save the carcass.
Also you got foie gras with the goose? Was it gavaed? How big was the liver?

>>15301783
Nazi?

>>15301796
no i got the foie gras separately
next time i'll just make my own pate with the bird's giblets
i saved a bit of fat in a jar but i wish i saved more
i used the majority to make a giant vat of gravy which is pretty good gravy but still seems like a waste

all in all it came out well though, it's a lot like duck but even darker and fattier and with the meat stuffing is was a very rich, indulgent meal

>>15301500
I'm a pretty good shot but since I don't hunt with a dog so getting them out of the water sucks
