The Complete Guide to Preserving Meat, Fish, and Game: Step-by-step Instructions to Freezing, Canning, Curing, and Smoking: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Complete Guide to Preserving Meat, Fish, and Game: Step-by-step Instructions to Freezing, Canning, Curing, and Smoking" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

For more than 8,000 years humans have been preserving meat and fish through canning, curing, smoking, and freezing, use techniques that remove the moisture and make it possible to keep meat for much longer than its natural shelf life. However, improper preservation of meat leads to more than 40% of all reported cases of food borne illness according to the Center for Disease Control, meaning it is necessary for everyone to carefully, effectively practice safe storage practices and ensure the meat is well preserved.
This book will show any potential meat preserver how to go about the process of storing meat for long term use in a variety of methods, while constantly keeping an eye to the possibility of food borne illness and the loss of freshness. You will learn everything you need to know to start the process of setting aside and preserving your meat, fish, and game. Starting with a series of charts and basic details about different kinds of meat and fish, from venison to beef to salmon, you will learn which animal products store best with which methods, which methods must be avoided, and which diseases are the greatest risk when you store meat. With this information in hand, you will start learning how the freezing, canning, curing, and smoking processes work. You will be given detailed outlines of each process starting with what equipment you will need.
Experts in meat preservation have been interviewed and their insights have been included here to provide a detailed and full overview of everything you can expect in the process. From these interviews, you will start the process of understand what you need to effectively preserve meat products. You will learn what can lead to failure for all four methods, what the best possible storage locations are for each, and what materials should be avoided at all costs. Learn how smoking works and the timelines for every form of storage from the moment the animal is butchered to the moment it needs to be preserved. No matter what kind of animal you are preserving, this book will provide the details you need to effectively store the meat for later use.

A few years back we lost our beloved pet dog Bear who was not only our best - photo 2

A few years back we lost our beloved pet dog Bear, who was not only our best and dearest friend but also the Vice President of Sunshine here at Atlantic Publishing. He did not receive a salary but worked tirelessly 24 hours a day to please his parents.

Bear was a rescue dog who turned around and showered myself, my wife, Sherri, his grandparents Jean, Bob, and Nancy, and every person and animal he met (well, maybe not rabbits) with friendship and love. He made a lot of people smile every day.

We wanted you to know a portion of the profits of this book will be donated in Bears memory to local animal shelters, parks, conservation organizations, and other individuals and nonprofit organizations in need of assistance.

Douglas and Sherri Brown

PS: We have since adopted two more rescue dogs: first Scout, and the following year, Ginger. They were both mixed golden retrievers who needed a home.

Want to help animals and the world? Here are a dozen easy suggestions you and your family can implement today:

  • Adopt and rescue a pet from a local shelter.
  • Support local and no-kill animal shelters.
  • Plant a tree to honor someone you love.
  • Be a developer put up some birdhouses.
  • Buy live, potted Christmas trees and replant them.
  • Make sure you spend time with your animals each day.
  • Save natural resources by recycling and buying recycled products.
  • Drink tap water, or filter your own water at home.
  • Whenever possible, limit your use of or do not use pesticides.
  • If you eat seafood, make sustainable choices.
  • Support your local farmers market.
  • Get outside. Visit a park, volunteer, walk your dog, or ride your bike.

Five years ago, Atlantic Publishing signed the Green Press Initiative. These guidelines promote environmentally friendly practices, such as using recycled stock and vegetable-based inks, avoiding waste, choosing energy-efficient resources, and promoting a no-pulping policy. We now use 100-percent recycled stock on all our books. The results: in one year, switching to post-consumer recycled stock saved 24 mature trees, 5,000 gallons of water, the equivalent of the total energy used for one home in a year, and the equivalent of the greenhouse gases from one car driven for a year.

Preface The abundance of commercially processed food has left many people - photo 4

Preface

The abundance of commercially processed food has left many people without a need for the art of home canning meats and vegetables. Home prepared and preserved foods were once essential in feeding families throughout the year. I have many fond memories of my family canning large quantities of fruits and vegetables that we enjoyed throughout the long winter months. A couple of those memories are still fresh in my mind, although they took place more than 20 years ago.

My wifes family still lives in South Central Nebraska producing corn, soybeans, and wheat. Each year, Uncle Neil plants several rows of sweet corn in a field near the house. Up to ten families would pick as much sweet corn as they can eat and preserve every year. One year, my wife, her mother, and our two daughters decided they were going to can as much corn as possible in a day or two. They canned more than 100 quarts of sweet corn fresh from the family farm that week. Besides the value of the fresh food that was preserved for months of enjoyment, they made a lifelong memory.

Several years ago, I was stationed at the former Wurtsmith Air Force Base in Michigan. One of the highlights each year was the annual salmon run up the Au Sable River, which flowed just a few miles from the base. One night my eldest son set out by himself on his bicycle to spend the night fishing. He caught a 39-inch salmon. He must have been a real sight as he came through the main gate of the base, excited as he could be, riding his bicycle carrying his fishing gear and that big fish. He came into the house at about 2 a.m. and woke the whole family up. All seven of us stayed up and cleaned and canned that great fish in the early hours of the morning. That memory cannot be manufactured by the artificial technology of modern society.
