It looks like one of the kiddos left the freezer door slightly open last night and we didn't notice it until this afternoon. Everything is still cold, but thawed. I assume we can't refreeze any of it... there is a lot of trout, some ducks and a little deer left over. I plan on giving a decent amount away, but does anyone one have any recipes I can use to cook tonight/tomorrow and then freeze? I was thinking of doing a chili, maybe a gumbo, and make something for dinner tonight and tomorrow. Any ideas with backstrap?

And yes on the chili! We make a ton of chili at times and then freeze in plastic containers in smaller portions. Pretty easy to set a couple tubs of it out and reheat.

I don't know about y'all but I have defrosted and refroze meat numerous times.
I cube all my deer meat up and freeze it until I'm ready to grind then a dethaw it , grind it and refreeze it.
I've never had an issue at all.Comment

I wont refreeze seafood that is completely thawed but I have refrozen everything else multiple times. I think its an old wives tale that you cant do that.Originally posted by cbrown View PostComment

Fire up the Smoker...
I had this same issue after Ike. Everything went to the smoker, and then into recipes. Smoked Deer Chili is amazing, Smoke sirloins are great.Comment
