Will this work for dry aging???

[Turboe]

It’s been a tough season to say the least... in a nutshell I cut the tendon on top of my left thumb skinning a hog, so no more bow hunting, then Covid got me (not bad, just low on HP, and no taste/smell). Finally started feeling better so one last chance to fill the freezer and last evening got a doe with my rifle.

I was planning on aging this for a few days before finishing up the processing.
Do y’all think this will work?
How many days would y’all leave it this way?

TIA!

You gonna have blood in every crevice of the bottom of that fridge though.

[Turboe]

That'll work just fine. I'd probably hang in 10-14 days, though you could do longer if you wanted.

Should be great. I just hang mine up at camp until its time to go or until I get tired of looking at it lol

Yes, that will work fine. Way to take advantage of what you have to work with.

Go 7 - 14 days.

Lay waxed freezer paper in the bottom and up the sides tape up then place an old towel on top to absorb the blood

Humidity is an issue. I would go 7 days, then vacuum seal and wet age for 20 more days. I have not tried this but I was told that spraying the meat with 50/50 white vinegar and water before vacuum sealing helps prevent bacteria.
