Quartered deer on ICE

[cva34]

How long is too long for (safe quality meat) if it stays Iced and drained????

Found out GD killed deer Dec 23...and its still on ICE...


Myself I always Process after 3 Days...

I’ve processed at the 2 week mark so long as it’s been kept cold and drained properly.

Do it today.

This. Smell will tell and it will hit you in the face when you open it up. If you even get a wiff of something off then chunk it.

2 weeks is no problem if kept cold.

I’ve done two weeks multiple times with no problem.

Agreed

Get to cutting!

[Jspradley]

Trust your nose, if it smells fine it's probably fine

[bboswell]

If you just found it how has it been kept iced?

[Antlers86]

I keep on ice 10-15 days before I process.

[Southernboy]

Key is if it has been kept on ice

[fishman]

Should still be good if it was kept iced. It'll definitely be aged and tender!

I have done em 14 days after the kill. I usually wait 7-10 anyway.
