EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

I just had a Wild sow processed. First time as i usually just quarter them up and pull the backstraps. I have done it for years and my daughter has always watched and even eaten a sandwich while doing it, Gone hunting with me and her older brother. Now she is 17 and we had a hard enough time getting her to help dig a hole for the guts but she will. Will only go hunting if we make her. The other day i cooked some link sausage and she would not eat it, said it was because she watched me kill it and skin it. Today i made spagetti and put ground sausage in the sauce and she LOVED IT! Told me it was the best she ever had. When i told her she didn't seem to care now that she ate it. I have never figured out woman and Girls but i could not help but laugh and share it. It was some of the best i have eaten also if i do say so. Can't wait for the left overs. How many of ya'll have problems getting your kids to eat the meat you catch ?

Actually I have a hard time getting my boys to eat sausage from the store.......they're only 3&5 and flat refuse to east anything beside "Daddy Sausage". And believe or not they can taste the difference.Both have watched me slaughter and process numerous various animals and already have a good understanding that, thats where dinner comes from.

Growing up we so often cooked while butchering so I seen and tasted it real fresh.  Sometimes women just don't need to be told what they are eating lmao.

Very true. She asked me today as she finished the left overs if we had more. It was just funny how she has changed since she was little and now older. Phases and kids.

 i cant get my wife to eat home made sausage. she says she is used to eating store bought. i gave my pet pig some of it as i cleaned the grinder and she said it was wrong feeding her ground up hog and deer.  ;D the pig dont mind.

hahaha   when my son cole was 4 a friend gave us a weaning pig . he told his sunday school teacher he had been given a baby pig  , she said " cole what are you gonna do with your new baby pig " ? cole said " well when he gets big enough to eat i'm gonna shoot him right between the eyes " lmao

my kids can be petting a rabbitt in the afternoon , and eating it at supper  :D :D

I have four kids. The two girls are older and now 16 and about to be 18. They went through that phase but didn't last long when I made it clear that this is what's for dinner here tonight. I sympathized with their feelings but " this is what daddy cooked and this is what s for dinner at daddys house". Never forced them to eat but didn't offer any alternative food either. Now we laugh about it together and they eat " what's for dinner". My boys 10and 12 are blood thirsty little mongrels and will eat anything.....and a lot of it
