How quick did you pick the deer up after the processors notification? Did it even have enough time to sit in their freezer and get 100% of it frozen?
How long was the car ride home?
Like this brother. Lol. We done several at one timeI would suspect that some processors mix trim from several deer, grind it all at once, then divvy it up.
That's great if you know when and how the deer were killed and handled. If you took care of yours, then it gets mixed in with somebody else's who gutshot it and left it laying out in the woods overnight to start rotting, then hauled it around half the day ungutted showing it off before taking it to the processor, not so much.Like this brother.

Yep that's why we always do ours ourselves. Good to know what you have and I enjoy passing it on to my kids. We spent almost a whole day with family processing everyone's deer. 6 of us and we put up 300 pounds of ground and 50 pounds of cubed.That's great if you know when and how the deer were killed and handled.

I always do my own.
Seems like the processor would know this, dosent the meat need to be quick frozen to keep it from goung through a heat and spoiling?If you stack them up in a freezer the top and bottom might freeze, but the middle won’t. I put 8-10 packs of burger in ours the other day and my wife went to get some out a day or two later. I told her not to get it off the top. First pack she grabbed was frozen solid, next one was not. I’d say it’s normally whether you do it yourself or take it somewhere
