I have noticed that since I started cutting, wrapping and freezing my deer myself (last 4-5 deer) I haven't had ANY off flavours or "bad meat" including burger which I grind myself as well. (My wife actually pointed this out the other night.) Definitely something to be said for doing it yourself! Cheaper, rewarding and I KNOW I'm getting MY meat.

guranteed my freind..
and they charge you over a hundred bucks to give you back poopy meat..
wife and i refuse to let this happen any more i bulk cut she details and vacum seals... princess auto $100
we do not pregrind it we labell to be ground in 2lbs packages..
if you live close to a good guy bucher you can get him to run all your trim at once while you bag it..
i had all my trim from a moose,caribou,a muley and two whitetails ground for $30 while i bagged it.before i got a good grinder... if your talking one animal two be ground can also be stew.

Cabelas has decent grinders on sale. If it's for your personal use they will be fine. You don't need the biggest one just be sure it has a metal gear not plastic.

The sausage you get is almost always from a mix of everyones meat as well as the burger.

A good idea is to split the costs of a decent grinder with a few guys you hunt with or friends. You probably only use it a few days a year anyway.

dude you got x pounds ground deer for x pounds of too be ground you provided.. they grind all at once mixing your deer with someonelses gut shot sun cooked deer not kidding..ill bet i can guess the butcher?

I know the shop well where this deer was processed and I can guarantee you this isn't the case.

Mature swollen neck bucks don't make the best burger.

How could it be that the burger has the bad flavour? That meat would be coming off all parts of the animal? Or could it be that some sections are holding the bad taste and those areas taint the rest?
