I've done a fair bit of the DIY processing (mostly deer but a few pigs (whole different level of disturbing since some butchers like them too be pregnant) and cows) but I can't stress enough the difference in speed between amateur/DIY processing and the guys trained in it , and that's without factoring in the difference in equipment (figure 5 guys 8-10 hours vs 2 guys 2 hours for a full grown cow). There are ways around the hanging (eg.ground beef doesn't need too hang since your mechanically breaking the bonds that make meat tough)

Good to know! I will incorporate that into the next book/s as it fits. (I have never butchered a cow, obviously. Heck, I'm a long time vegetarian, so you get me, I can use the help on some of these ideas...)

Was just reading new book so far excellent but noticed you have a cow killed on 3rd being cooked on the 4th. That's a bit of a butcher no no (unless you really love tough meat.)
Deer you could do that way but the bigger animals like cow or moose usually gets hung for 10+ days at around 2-5 degrees Celsius too break done the bonds in the meat. It also doesn't give alot of prep time (debone and grind up or slice into steaks at a full on slaughter plant could be done in a few hour but smaller shops or diy will take much longer)
Just my two cents (and we know how much that buys lol)
Keep up the good work

Behind the Wall • Concept pictures for Cul-De-Sac

Here are some basic idea pictures that are close to what I was thinking at the time I wrote the book

Jake first. There are more, but similar in idea.

Jacob Hines isn't just some kid, of course. He's a main character!
