Hog on ice question

[Cooter]

Daughter shot a sow a week ago Saturday. I’ve had it covered in ice with the cooler plug open and had the intention of processing it this past weekend, but life got in the way. Will it be okay until Wednesday or possibly this weekend?

[Sackett]

Unless you've had Salt in there with it, i'd say absolutely not. Toss that pig and get her another one.

I have kept quartered deer like that for two weeks. I'm not sure about wild hogs. I don't see why not.

[Slabby]

Skinned...heck ya. Skin on...I'd pass

[diamond10x]

Yes its fine. Bet it ends up being one of the better hogs you've ever had.

[PondPopper]

If it doesn't stink then it is fine..
If it has a slick/slimey feeling on the surface I would feed the coyotes with it.

I would not be scared of a pig on ice for 2 weeks.

[Gumbo Man]

I shot a mulie several years back that was rank from being on sage and also rutting. I did exactly what you’re doing with a constant stream of fresh ice and open drain plug. That sucker turned out good.

As long as you have not let the ice melt in the cooler, it's good. I have done the same thing to a couple of deer I shot, then the nilgai. Meat was great. I have since learned that the flavor of the meat is supposed to improve, if you let it sit on ice or in a cooler for a two weeks. The longest I have let something sit on ice, was five days.

So far the best wild game I have ever eaten, by far, was a mule deer, I shot and left on ice for five days. I still don't know if that deer was going to be great eating no matter when I butchered it, or if it had anything to do, with it being on ice for five days. That meat, was very tender and tasted great.

It will be great. Like others said, if it stinks or has a slimy film then toss it. Bet it will taste great.

Just closer to tofu.
