I've been invited to go on a buffalo hunt on a huge ranch in Montana. From what I'm told, it's pretty much a done deal that you bring home a buffalo. The herd is huge, and these guys know what they're doing.
So...
I live in a townhouse up a hill from the beach. We have no land to speak of. I don't have, nor can I put up, something like a big outbuilding with a walk-in freezer, or anyplace to put a huge freezer.
They're talking about taking the meat to some incredibly good butcher that turns your buffalo into about 800 pounds of steak, bratwurst, breakfast sausage, you name it.
This is not a problem I've ever had to think about when hunting quail!
How much meat is 800 pounds? It's hard to get a picture of what that means.
Are there commercial meat storage facilities where I could rent a few square feet of floor space without spending more than the meat's worth?
Any other ideas?
Even if we give some away for Christmas or whatever, to everyone we know, we'll still have more meat than I've ever seen in one place. And it's so good, from what I hear, I'd hate to waste an ounce.
Thanks in advance for suggestions and input!
