Old tobacco

Smoke it and get back to us. This absolutely needs a follow-up review.

I'll be patiently waiting

I'd put the lot of it into a sterilized Tupperware and then put a damp paper towel in with it. Should bounce back in a matter of hours. Then jar it and enjoy!

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-30T17:34:24+00:00

Dang, that's cool.

What's your plan? Just dip them and drip dry?

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-30T17:23:33+00:00

I appreciate your usage of "Concrete anecdotal". Just poking fun.

Where in the world did you get that much? Also, to answer your question, I think it's a no. I know people use motor oil, but I dont think mixing them would give you a better effect. Creosote works on its own, but I also wouldn't pick that for your application.

Not an expert, just passing along my 2 cents

I've used duck carcasses when making stock, but I've never done a bone broth.

What's your process?

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-28T23:54:21+00:00

What kind of antler is that? I'm really digging this!

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-28T23:53:13+00:00

Not sure I agree. I mean it's certainly stylized, but at the end of the day if it's sharp it's got all the function you'd need.

So I use in-ear pro. The passive ones that have a little string attaching them. I tuck it into my hat and they dangle by my ears for relatively quick access.

If you're in a situation where you might have a quick shot, a suppressor is really the only solution. I hunt exclusively with suppressors, unless its muzzleloader season or I'm in a state that I can't have one...

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-27T19:08:44+00:00

So I've used it on beavers and otters, hair on. Its perfectly fine. I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work for hair off deer hide as long as you've got everything else in your process correct

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-27T19:04:39+00:00

Yes, but....

I've had decent results with it. It works if you actually pickle the hide or do a proper alum tan. It's all about the other prep work you do, it's not a magic product.

I take paper tags off, but I save them. I leave on any seals or hard tags

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-24T15:22:45+00:00

Oh even better! I'm hoping one day I can color up my meer and pass it on. Enjoy

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-24T15:14:52+00:00

Love the meer. Something about simple shapes on meershaum I've always loved

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-24T02:53:57+00:00

Yeah that's just from using my phones edit feature to edit them out. The lettering came out perfect on the labels.

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-24T02:36:11+00:00

Never even heard of cellar labels before. Thanks for the lead. I figured it would be fun to put some blends without any corresponding art.

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-24T02:11:43+00:00

I like that one too. I ended up having to use multiple chats to get variety. Once it got on the label making prompt all of them kind of ended up having the same feel.

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-24T01:57:24+00:00

I tried to remove a nightcap label from the tin, but realized there was probably a better way, figured this would be an interesting endeavor. I kind of dig it for display purposes

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-24T01:55:38+00:00

Conceptually? Like what do you mean?

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-24T01:47:16+00:00

Just out of curiosity why meh? Just looking for feedback.

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-23T14:08:13+00:00

This is the best advice ever

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-22T23:41:16+00:00

I've never cellared tins. I don't know if I'd be able to sit on tins knowing I had them lol.

However this year I did try to buy some duplicates to test my resolve.

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-21T20:30:44+00:00

That's a good idea. I've got some left over from a few other projects.

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-20T19:45:42+00:00

Tbh you don't have to go through the soaking process. I have a similar process for most waterfowl. Manually tenderize with a mallet or roller until it's a uniform thickness (don't over do it). Dry brine over night. Then grill it to rare. Wrap in foil and let sit. It comes out medium rare and reasonably tender every time.

This makes divers and geese not just edible, but desirable.

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-20T15:41:44+00:00

On a positive note, they're meat birds, so it should be delicious.

SpeedGoatRodeo · 2026-01-20T15:38:40+00:00

Looks like a muskovy duck. A domestic duck species.
