trichinosis laboratory analysis

Dog food, if the pooch will even eat it lol.


No clue how you guys can enjoy bear meat knowing it could be infested with worms.

Il stick to a moose deer elk diet

I've shot many moose with Fluke Worms in the legs, if you're paranoid about worms and other things you better quit hunting and stick to the grocery store stuff pumped full of hormones, antibiotics and who knows what else to kill all the nasty stuff at who knows what expense to those eating it...

I read something, I think from meateater saying the temp that kills trich is actually 130 but the USDA played it safe and said 160...

If I recall correctly, I believe the temperature is also dependent on cooking time? Think it all comes down to internal temps but higher temps for shorter times or lower temps longer will both work, I think I have seen a chart somewhere showing this at one time, for the times at which temps. I think 130 will kill it when held for longer time, and I think 150 was where it was killed instantly or something along those lines.

Cuts and wounds can get you Brucellosis from near everything, Elk moose deer etc contact with blood and organs

I've started getting into the habit of wearing latex/nitrile gloves underneath a pair of cut-proof/cut-resistant gloves. Partly due to possible infections etc and partly because a bad cut a long ways in the bush can be a problem. For how sharp our hunting and filleting knives are, I stick with a cut resistance rating of level 4 or 5.

I wear them simply to keep the meat i'm processing clean from my dirty hands.

If positive, would you throw the meat out?

The other side to that is, if it came back negative, would you eat it rare-medium rare?

I play with fire often when I cook bear meat for myself. It's for other people, I'll always make sure it's properly cooked.

I have a question. If I bring my bear meat to a butcher do I have to worry about trichinosis in pepperoni or salami? Im wondering if the process of making this will kill trichinosis.
