OK, one week till bear season, I can do this.

I actually have a question for you all. Assuming I do get a bear, how in the heck do you cook bear? All I know is that you need to heat it to a specific internal temperature. I don’t have a recipe or anything.

Anyone got a good bear recipe in case I get a bear?

I just used it the same as any other meat in a recipe. Just make sure it is cooked until done. I cooked steaks, roasts, stews, meatloaf, etc.

Found this. It looks good. Question is, I don’t have a smoker, and I don’t know what part of the bear to use as a ham.

Thanks. I was wondering.

Don't forget to render the fat to use as a waterproofing for your outdoor leather footwear.

The ham is the same on a bear as it is on a pig. It is the hind leg.

Thank you. One more question. Is it the upper part of the hind quarter, or the lower part? I guess what I’m asking is what part of the hind leg do I use for the ham?

The whole hind leg. The upper part is the butt ham and the lower part is the shank ham.

Most of the sponges I make use a cup of sourdough added to flour and water. That bubbles over night and becomes the sponge. The rest of the flour, salt and etc is added the next day.

It is good to keep a good amount of starter though for recipes that use more

Ron I will keep more sourdough for recipes for sure. Tasted the Bread...
delicious. More like a Good White Bread....not a sourdough taste. Probably will be BETTER with 2 cups of SDS. Or I will try other recipes that use 1 cup sourdough starter. YES. Aria
