I haven't gutted an animal in years. This includes sheep, elk, hog, caribou, antelope, bear and deer.
Skin it on the ground and take off the front / hind quarters, back straps, fillet the neck meat, brisket, rib meat. When I get it home, it's ready to be hung up or cut and wrapped.
This method also eliminates the need to ever drag any animal to a road or the truck. I doubt that my pack weighs more than 80# with all the meat from any deer that I've ever killed.


I kinda do this sometimes myself. In Montana the tenderloins must be kept and I havent found a way to get them without gutting.


Someone(maybe ravenr) mentioned using the gutless method and severing the spine near the ribcage to allow access to the tenderloins. I will try this next time.

Just tell yourself, "it's all part of the adventure." Remember, if Robert Ruark had gotten upset every time problems with Harry
Selby's flat bed truck delayed the safari, Horn of the Hunter would have read like an indictment of Selby. But Ruark rolled with the punches, poured some gin, and enjoyed the adventure.

You can get the tenderloins from behind the ribs and along side the spine. They are usually the last thing I do when using the gutless. And depending on how the critter is laying I have split a little hole in the belly to let the guts hang out a little. It just relieves a little pressure while getting the tenderloins.

It has been mentioned that the trichinosis you have in the far North seems to be resistant to freezing. I have never heard the same said about the trichinosis we have in the lower 48. I'm interested to see your links.
