    Sweating like a savage / insulation layering

    Insta pot venison roast

    This post is spot on. After I am done butchering meat from the backbone, I separate each backbone section and add these to pressure cooked soup. There is generally a surprising amount of meat still on the bone.

    Instant Pot + Shanks - school me.

    Inta pot shanks into a philly cheesesteak sandwich is phenomenal. I recommend dutch oven for osso bucco shanks though.

    Canned salmon question

    I might freeze it as well. I would guess it would still be good for a weekish as long as temps don't get too warm.

    Elk heart.... brine or no brine

    I have never brined a heart. I slice caribou heart into 1/2" slices and fry with butter. Use in place of a burger patty for heart burgers.
