Well, I finally got up the nerve to send three of my boys off to freezer camp, and it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. DH and the youngest daughter did the actual killing (they are both hunters anyway), but even watching that wasn't the horrible traumatic experience I thought it would be. We did make a couple mistakes.. like either the water was too hot or we swished one too much because the skin seemed too fragile and weirdly thick, and some of my pieces weren't grocery store perfect, but in all it wasn't bad. Most of it went to the freezer, but I have some soaking in buttermilk for fried chicken for dinner tonight. I just wanted to say thanks to all of those who post one here and the great advice you give. This would have been a disater without your help
