Usually enjoy smoked meats the best with bear.

Gutting just the same.

Jerky, peporoni, and sasuage.

If your not famillar with bears and their size, one trick is look for a bear with real small ears. The ears do not change much from birth to adult hood so if the ears look small the bear should be a decent size.

I also try not to harvest bears close to areas where garbage is available ie towns and large campsities, stick to the remote bears and they are usually very healthy.

Happy hunting :smile:
