![BEST. ACTION. EVER. - Catching WILD scrub-bulls in Outback Australia [Part 2 of 2]](/img/n.gif)
We need farmers more than ever sir. Great video, thanks again
Yes we do thanks!
I grew up butching and gardening and canning food. We also hunted and foraged, this is what the Lord gave us and its how we're to survive!! God Bless and keep the education videos comming. Thank you.
Well said! Thanks for sharing your experience!!!
The hump is better if you cooked steamed for long time (3 hours) because it has a lot of collagenous, in Brazil is called Cupim and they cooked a lot because they raise mostly Asian breeds, here in Mexico we cook the hump as said steamed, great video, greetings from Mexico
Back in the early 1940's I learned home kills by my granddad, from scalding pigs, legging sheep and goats to siding in a steer. I recall we did a young pony for a friend that had a broken leg. Our UK Food Standard Agency stopped it all in 2013, all private animals had to be slaughtered in a slaughter house.
We can call it a Hump Roast 😂😅
That Neighbor lady is a dang worker!! She's always there helping and will work right there doing anything!!
You ain’t joking!
That neighbour lady their equals are very scarce now back 30yrs ago all neighbours gave a hand out to day peouple would be ashamed to b seen doing physical work .....that the main reason so many people are suffering from mental issues
Lots of teamwork by everyone. That tiny neighbor lady is definitely not afraid of work. Thanks for sharing.
It’s amazing to have good help…. friends and neighbors!
Grampa had a butchering tree back home. Was an old gnarly hickory. .
Hogs and beef were butchered there.
Smaller critters were processed near the house . Sheep , lambs and chickens.
I hated the smell of wet chicken feathers ,I can smell them Even to this day😅
Nearly a ton of grass-fed grass-finished beef 😁 A lot of work but great teamwork for a wonderful reward. What a great set up you folks have for getting the best meat on earth. Thanks for posting a fascinating video.
Yes! Thank you! You’re absolutely welcome!
This is the content i like traditional home farming no processed food showing up here all natural foods!.
That’s absolutely right!
"The Bull is out of it. Matthew was almost out of it", had me dying laughing 😂😂😂😂lol!
😂🤣😂🤣😂
@McGieHomesteadAdventures did you get a loader tractor?
No that’s my neighbor’s tractor.
Love watching family and friends work and take care of each other
It’s a blessing!
Butchering isn't easy work by no means. But I can tell anyone for a fact, true appreciation where ones food comes from is directly related to harvesting it by ones own self. I butcher my animals and harvest my vegetables. I have 100% appreciation for where my food comes from. So many don't understand this way of life anymore, but fact is 150 years ago more folk lived like this than not! Much more sustainable way to live than to rely on a half broken food supply chain! Great job, good to see others doing more for themselves as well!
Oh that’s exciting! It’s great to hear that you’re on it!!!
This is exactly how we harvested our own beef. Great memories of skinning, and learning the internal anatomy of a cow. As kids, we played drums on the stomachs lol. We learned where all the different meat cuts are from. Fascinating. This skill is almost a lost art. Thank you for sharing this procedure with us. Brought back my memories as a little girl growing up on the farm. Yes, I am a carnivore.
Well said! I agree 100%!
I confess to being a meataterian.
This is exactly why God gave us dominion over all of his creation. Food is survival, and beef is the best of all his gifts!
That is absolutely true! And we must!
Another awesome video Special thanks for Grace mom For letting us enjoy videos at her house She's always in the middle of everything awesome
It’s truly a blessing to have wonderful friends…… something very rare in these times!
Brought me back to the days on the farm 60 yrs ago!
That’s what we love to hear!
Awesome video. I miss the days we did this, but, hopefully in the future we will be back to doing this each year. You have a great set of neighbors, and to have the same great set of standards and skill sets of living is awesome . Y’all are the real deal.
It’s a wonderful thing!
Good morning Micah,great job! Lots of hard work, but many helping hands.You certainly have some great neighbors!👍👨🌾
Good morning! Yes indeed! That’s something that not many people have anymore, but used to be common! What’s happened to our society???
This is real life. People need to know more about their food and how it's processed.
Absolutely! And I have to wonder why UA-cam doesn’t like it…… because it’s always demonetized and sometimes age restricted 😤
I just love how the lady was hands on that’s every man’s dream to have such a great woman on their team, thank y’all for this great ride!
You got that right!
Knowing where your food comes from is the best thing ever and knowing what it eats also great
So true!
I have never seen anything like this. The only part that was a little creepy was seeing the bull still moving after the shot. I like beef and felt I should continue watching since this is where my supper comes from. Thank you.
That’s a GREAT attitude! It’s a pleasure to be able to share this with you!
Awesome team work food for the families 🌺🍍🌴✝️🇺🇸🤙🏽 Thank you for this video🤙🏽
Glad you enjoyed it!
Back in the 70s there was a grocery store called pantry pride in Jacksonville Florida And they would slaughter the cow just exactly the same way you did in this video and they get huge windows that you can watch the whole process while you shop for groceries all the kids in the neighborhood would watch every weekend is it done it. That was a normal thing back in them days. This was a very educational video.
A hard working family, enjoy your videos very much.👍
Yes, thank you!
I'm a first time viewer and it was really interesting to say the least, glad yall didn't cut out the yucky part of processing an animal! My wife was raised on a farm so I was around when they slaughtered their animals for food. Enjoyed the video, yall take care and God Bless Yall!😊
Glad you enjoyed it! We’ll have more coming soon!
Nice shot, I love to see how everyone participates in the process, even the young people i believe this is great education for them. That what people use to do in the good old days until they brought grocery stores around and tax you for everything you buy there!
It’s so much more enjoyable when everyone helps!
LOVE this kinda family real life content. Reminds me of the way we raised our kids as well. Great Job.
Thanks! We love it!
Awesome video! Looks like you have a wonderful family. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Great drop! He just had to get that last "twitch" in. Rain on butcher day? Meh, keep going. That last hurricane though...
Carcass looks fantastic! Ol' Ferdinand. Still serving y'all well. Love it!
Yes indeed!!! We learned that those legs have reach, speed and power!!!😂😂😂
Have a super awesome day!
Note to self: Do NOT fight Matthew! That ol’ boy can take a punch!
You ain’t joking!!!😂😂😂
Frank never show up to help! But when the Mcgies cook he’s always there 😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
100 times better than any store bought beef, looks yummy !
You got that right!
I was going to say 1600 lbs great video thanks for sharing keep the cameras rolling from Florida.
You got it!
huge animal, great video. I didn't grow up in the city but didn't grow up on a farm either . great info.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent video!! I love to watch your family 😍
Thank you so much!
Great video. You are a master of your craft.
I’m no master, but I enjoy it!
Love to see your process this in person
Well done.... excellent video ! Nice beef should be nice and tasty. 😋😋😋😋
We hope so!
You are so correct just keep doing what you do
Thank you!!
Thank you I am 74 Year old I did the same thing with my daddy
That’s awesome!
Ol' Ferd always looked like he just wanted to have his neck, right behind his ears, scratched. He won't be itching any more. He had a good life and won't go to waste for sure.That is A LOT of beef.
Hope ol boy who got death throe kicked is okay.
That is a fine looking walk-in cooler you have there.
Yes old Matthew is fine! He’s greasing a piece of equipment right now and I’m gonna be on it in just a minute!
I think the reason Ferdinand left at the beginning was because he was feeling insulted by the way you fellas were talking about him.
Hope Mat is ok. Sometimes those feet kick for a long while after they're dead.
We put 2 steers down yesterday and they are now hanging in a cooler!
Have a good day my friend.
Awesome!!! I’m glad you got it done!!!
Seems the boy may have learned a valuable lesson and survived.
😂😂😂😂
Love your videos… very educational
Glad you like them!
We butchered our own meat - veal calves, pigs, etc. One day nobody could find my Uncle Joe. He was cornered by a bull in the barn for two hours! We'd have a Bull run behind the cows and I was told, Don't go in the barn! So you know you have to peek 😂 That Bull scared the life out of me! I thought he was going to bust through that wood and I'd run - but then I'd go back and peek three more times only to he scared to death every time 😅
Ferdinand is beautiful and great name ‼️
They’re definitely dangerous, but necessary I guess!😂😂😂
I like how you sent them the freezer camp
That’s where they belong🤣
Very interesting, the fat which you saved what would it be used for, I don't remember my father saving this. I also don't remember what fat he saved to make tallow.
This fat will likely be used for making candles….. the last one we did a couple weeks ago was even better fat and it was turned into cooking oil! I did not know what amazing cooking oil it made!
Glad Matthew is ok
Yes indeed!
Ya'all did a great job!!!
Thanks!
Another very interesting video some very good eating 😊😊😊😊
Thank you 😋
That fat netting you pulled off looked so beautiful, full of healthy Omegas. That piece of fat is often used to wrap a leaner cut of meat.
Yes indeed! This one was more of a blanket!
I enjoyed watching.
That makes me very happy!
LOL! Buy your meat at a grocery store where no animals were harmed!!! Right???
🤣🤣🤣
Thay's a big boy, ought to be some real good eating. You'll have to tell us if Zebu meat is any different than other breeds. You have some pretty fine neighbors.
Best neighbors on earth! And not just because they will read this either!😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures How did you know I'd read this....though I guess this proves you were right! lol.
😂😂😂
The kicking, etc., is an involuntary response. Even pet animals euthanized at the vet will kick and move, this is why vets will administer a paralyzing drug first, so this involuntary response is prevented so the procedure is less distressing to the pet owner.
Absolutely!
Every harvesting of cattle and vet interactions always tell you to watch out for their legs kicking out, easy said though
He thought he was far enough…… up behind the front leg…. Obviously he was wrong!😂
A mule they say would let you work him for 20 years just to get one good kick in. That bull let you soot him just to get one kick in. Matt must be about as tough as a tick tacking that shot, It did appear to wake things up though.
I guarantee you he was wide awake after that!😆
Growing up my uncle had a farm. Every fall we butchered, people who never have had fresh meat don't have a clue the difference in taste. Although as a kid we didn't want to eat burgers for awhile. We were the one's who made them 😂😂😂
😂😂😂 that’s hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
the fat you got around the guts, did you say it's called "fall fat"? and the hanger steaks is new to me too. great informative video !
Caul fat….. really good stuff!
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures thank you
Lil guy can tell a story😮
Yes indeed!!
That was nice interesting❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
I may have missed it, but what did you use to put Ferdinand down?
Great job, excellent video. Ferdinand gonna be yummy. Ferdinand got his last kick in. im thinking the young man will not let that happen again 😂😂💪🇺🇸
I think so too😂😂😂
Bison have a roast known as a hump roast. It’s very tender and delicious. The hump on this bill reminds me of it.
I’m hoping it’s going to be good!
Golly Micah, sure do hope Matt is ok after taking that kick to the chin like that! So I am guessing the saga of Bellowing Bulah, the problem bull child has come to its aging phase? Didnt take too long for the critter to drop like a rock, very silently... Sure is nice seeing a set of chain falls put into production to feed a couple of families many good meals! Will become a good mini series comparing the flavor between your soon to be pair of freezer camp veterans there. Your neighbor lady sure is a good assistant too, along with your boys. Instead of cutting in the rain as you were previously just standing there being all social like, well the sun came out turning the rain into sun and making it a Great Day! -Bob...
Yes indeed! And the brisket from Big Louie was just the perfect way to make use of the rain!!! Brisket!!! You mentioned this on multiple occasions and somehow it slipped through the cracks today!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures O I dont think there was so much slippage on the brisket, rather a missing of a sampling of your fine cooking skills! Sure did looking like a well refined piece of cooking in action or perhaps more properly heading into many happy faces :-) for you do have yourself a good crew of meat packers there! So what will be on deck for Father's Day in a couple weeks time?
As it turns out. The neighboring Mrs. Smoked the brisket, and I can in no way take the credit!!! Unless the flavor was particularly due to the exceptional feed rations that I had a small part in!😅😇😇😇
As for Father’s Day, I’ll probably eat a carp😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures I have noticed your neighbor Mrs is very handy around the food preparation department! I am not al all surprised to hear and learn that the featured Brisket is her finished product!! You must be in preparation to distill some fish head fertilizer for Mary's Garden Space too?
Well, possibly 😂
Great job i like the video 👍
I'm glad you like it
Now i know why my jersey was bred to a zebu!! I got a heifer calf from that thankfully!
Awesome!!!
Thats a nice beef!!
Wishbone from Rawhide and Hop Sing from Bonanza envy your knife, ladder and cooking equipment,
Yes they do!😂😂😂
Great video God bless
Thank you! You too!
Y'all got a very nice setup, and it would assume y'all must be doing a bit of custom cutting for cash, not the USDA inspection type
No this is just friends and family having fun here…….. we all have our own jobs for making money 😁
Once I name an animal it is now a pet! That's just me!
That’s definitely your problem not mine!
Well done lad
Thanks!
Great video !
Glad you enjoyed it!
Have yall tried the golf ball trick for skinning?
Only with deer, beef are a little bit too big
How does bull meat eat? Seems like it would be a bit rank. But, I have eaten buck deer meat and it is fine. Just curios, thanks.
It’s just fine. …Not like a big old boar hog.
We raise Brahman cattle. That hump meat sliced thin makes great steak sandwiches or cook it slow as a roast and make gravy is delicious too. Sure do enjoy your videos. Great job
I’m so looking forward to trying it!
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures we love it. I hope y’all do too
Great help 8n that lady they are scarce now
Very true!
Just curious what did you shoot him with
My inner kid is saying give me a piece please !.
You’re on the right track!😂😂😂
Been there with the experiments to get a breed you want and I’ve been at it 7 years tring to get a Dexter line back breed
So how well I know
It’s fun to try these things!!!
Good one pawpaw 😀
Thanks 😆
A. dam ya big boy 😮😮😮😮😮
Fern still had to leave a mark before going out
Yes indeed!
Hell yeah, look at that GMT800 Suburban! You got the 8.1 in it?
I’m not sure! It’s not mine. I’ve got the 8.1 in my truck
Mary’s mom seems like one petite working machine.
That’s Grace’s mom….. she definitely is!
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures I defiantly already knew that is Grace’s mom. Mary’s mom would be Mom McGie🤷🏾♂️.. sorry about that. ✌🏾
The hump, or cupim is very tasty, best to cook very slow and low
Good to know! Slice into steaks or a whole roast?
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures whole roast..like you would a brisket on the grill , or the most full proof would be like a pot roast, slow, low and moist.
Awesome! I’ll do it!
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures nice, I guess you could try one steak, never seen it done like that..I just know it’s very similar to a chuck
It honestly didn’t look like it would be tender as a steak…… so I’ll do it whole. Probably like brisket.
First rule don’t get around the feet they are on the ground
Whats the temperature. I noticed a good breeze so flys weren't an issue but i see everyone in short sleeves. I myself have slaughtered and processed large steers up into temps of 55° degrees but was in a rush. So i cold get them in the cool room. Even saw my grandpaw do one at temp of 70° degrees. Just basic quarters and hang it in cool room. For 10 to 15 days before he started processing 1 quarter one day then another the next or a week later. I remember once we slaughtered a 400 lb steer so fadt that the entire animal was on a spit over a fire and cooked within 10 hours for a family reunion. When i say ober a fire i mean mostly coals ive never done that myself but then again those ole timers knew a heck of a lot more than we do now on surviving. I was young enough to ask grandpaw if it was too hot to butcher and he said son we didn't have refrigerators and freezers when i was a kid.and when there was a need for meat you did what you had to do. And then he rambled on about pioneers. Lol.he said do you think they j6st stayed hungry waiting for a cool day or do think the eat meat when they wanted meat. Sure its better and great to do it in the wintet.that it gave you a slower pace to work and a longer time not to worry about spoilage. He always had knowledge. I asked him one time when best time to castrate a hog. His simple answer whenever your knife is sharp. And slap a little pine tar on the cut. Haha. I still only do that in cold weather
Yes it was cooler when we started and warmer when we finished….. no going back at that point!😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures yep once you drop em you gotta job to finish.
Great video as always.
Thanks
Bill gave his final kick
😂😂😂
Yessss 🎉🎉🎉 Adios Ferdinand!
He gone!
How long are you guys hanging your beef?
40+ days.
I have absolutely no problem with this/similar videos, showing people exactly what and HOW we get our meat! It's a damned shame the EweTube platform enjoys censoring educational/instructional videos that have real application in our lives!
Well done!
Thank you so much! It’s a constant battle trying to stay just sterile enough to keep from getting banned 😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures
I can't even imagine what a minefield of topics/allowances you have to tread, but I certainly respect and appreciate your dedication to traversing them!
Well done!
:-D
Poor Matt taking one on the chin in Ferdinands final act!!!
😂😂😂
Thanks
Welcome
Good video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Growing up we were not allowed to give a name to the feeder animals. Most of the time we ended up naming them anyway. I learned at a young age not to get attached.
*Is Matthew ok?*
Yes he’s just fine!!! We definitely don’t get attached like that…… we’re pretty excited about steak though!!!🥩
salt of the earth I was a city slicker
Thats right its how we get meat. Hands down my favorite youtube channel.
I’m truly enjoying life more and more as I get into the carnivore lifestyle!
I love my animals and also loves them on my place and in the smoker
Yes! That’s what I’m talking about!!!
The kid learned that reflexes HAPPEN!
I say 1200 lbs! Wow 1634 but that's with the guts in! Let's dress him out and then get weight But his innards don't weigh 434lbs!
I didn’t get the hanging weight….. I might go to the effort of getting the weight of each hanging piece and add them up….. he’s still got to age a while!
I bet they think the steak in the super market is created just how they buy it .forgetting ingredients the poor farmer that raised it
That’s absolutely true!
