- YOu can save THOUSANDS of dollars every year by raising your own meat or buying farm fresh meat in bulk and removing the expense of butchering that meat by learning to butcher yourself!
In this video we are joined by Butcher and Educator Jamie Waldron. Together we explore the world of home butchery and how it can greatly increase your home economy by taking control of how you purchase meat and providing you with more flexibility by purchasing whole carcasses.
Jamie was born in Windsor, Ontario, and raised in the small rural town of Harrow. He started his career in a small country butcher shop as a teenager. Since then, he has dedicated 18+ years to the art of butchery.
Jamie has worked at some of the top butcher shops in Canada, helped craft menus and meat programs for restaurant groups, consulted for butcher shops, and worked with and for abattoirs in Ontario.
In 2013, he wrote the Home Butchering Handbook (Penguin/Alpha). It covers all aspects of traditional meat cutting, from whole carcass to usable cuts.

I am so lucky to call Jamie a friend, and a mentor. When I first met him, I was a server in a restaurant in Windsor, and I was vegetarian. He did demos in the restaurant, and they were really fascinating, even though I never ate any of it. I started eating meat again in part because of his demos, and the work he did for the chef/owner.
Now, I’ve moved a couple hours away to Michigan, and my husband and I have a farm raising poultry, and sheep, and we hope to progress into pigs soon. Jamie is incredibly supportive of the work we do, and an awesome person to have in our lives. We look forward to having a butchering class with our chickens with him soon!
Frontiere Farm House thanks, Nicole. Means a lot coming from you. Your work is brilliant and so needed in today’s food climate.
I Love hearing about the gratitude people have for others. 🇺🇸🦅💪🏁❤🎄
We are just beginning our journey to having a small homestead, and Bettie and I talk often about the meat situation. She prefers to go the vegetarian route (which she already is without naming it that, for the majority of the time), whilst I am up for bringing up my own animals to make sure that they have a good life. Both of us wanted to be as connected as much as possible to where our food comes from, but just have different levels of comfort in dealing with the harder side of obtaining that food. Thankful that we may be on different levels, but we can discuss what works for us without it evolving into a fight.
We are buying a 1hp meat grinder this year we already have all equipment for chickens. Looking to move up higher quality food is what we are looking for are self but set up is not cheap. People don’t understand that their is a lot of money in carcass and scraps the is value in these scraps and many incomes streams. Even for the very small animal like a rabbit can have a huge yield they call it nose to tail butchering it means that nothing goes to waste. You can sell parts fore more than what the animal is worth.
I have a 1 hp grinder, so nice to use!
TY for the book recommendation. 📖 🐮 🦌 🐖 my husband and I were just talking about hunting and raising animals for food. We aren’t homesteading yet, but we have to bring our property up to a condition where we can keep unwanted animals out and our animals in before we get more than dogs. There is a fence on the property, but it’s so dilapidated. Inherited property isn’t really free. We have our work cut out for us, but at least we have a jumping off point. As for the butchering. We are working on becoming more frugal with our meat purchases. This is going to help save us so much.
It’s amazing how much you can save by doing the cutting! I actually think you save more doing the butchering than raising the animals 😂
This was reletively good information. My wife and I are brand new to homesteading, left the city and bought our farm in the spring this year. We are making our own mistakes for sure, learning some of it the hard way. We don't have any meat cattle yet, but one of our cows are carrying right now, and we are hoping to get a few steers next spring. We are not looking forward to our first harvest for obvious reasons, but we are excited about it for the pride of knowing " we did this, this is all our hard work. " I'm no master on the smoker but I'm pretty dang good at it and we are planning a really big gathering to celebrate or independence with our first butcher. Chickens and a steer should feed the whole family and friends crowd. This is a very exciting time in our lives, the hard work seems overwhelming at times, but the fulfilment is well worth more than any career job.
OH SNAP That's the same butcher that was in Glen and Friends cooking! :D He showed the channel how to butcher a pig and a chicken. Great guy, really knows his stuff!
I’ve helped butcher deer and chickens but for me, I think rabbits have been the easiest so far. You really appreciate the food more when you are the one growing and harvesting it.
Do you eat a lot of rabbit meat? Do you have to supplement your diet with beef or lamb fat so you will not succumb to "rabbit starvation" caused by its low fat content?
@@fayschneider503 We used to eat a lot more than we do now (we moved this past year and have been focusing on our goats, chickens, and pigs at our new place). But yes we definitely ate lots of other meat in addition to our rabbits. If we can hunt it or fish it, we eat it :). But rabbit meat is super versatile and it and squirrel are a favorite of mine.
First person ive heard mention info online becoming saturated with non sense. Back to the books Amen!
Great motivation for new Generation let's build butcher 💪💪💪🍾
Merry Christmas Homesteady
😘🎄♥️
Weird flex and completely unrelated but I have that exact same plate set that you put your steak n eggs on
Field and stream man I wish I would have keep all of them
@homesteady
Your link to Amazon paperback is priced at $890.00 and the handsaws unavailable. I'm certain it's a mistake just wanted to tell you. I'm interested in getting started.
i don't eat chicken. i eat mostly lamb, beef, and seafood.
Why don't you eat chicken?
@@fayschneider503 they are fed all grain and grain is heavily sprayed. the omega 3 to 6 ratios are off too. i just feel my best on lamb or beef, ok on seafood if it is wild caught. but chicken makes my joints ache with inflammation and it just isn't as satiating as a fatty beef steak.
@@necrokittie2291 Are you familiar with homesteading with Icelandic Chickens as in wiki.iceagefarmer.com/wiki/Icelandic_Chickens ?
@@fayschneider503 nope! but i'll look into them. i know there are chickens out there that are fully pasture raised. if i ever get a homestead going, thats definitely a goal of mine... figure out which animals are viable to live fully off the land wherever i move to, i'm considering lamb, beef, goats, pigs, and just maybe chickens or quail.
Whats the story with the deer in the backround?
That was a skull I found, I think a car hit the buck it was by the side of a road.
The bearded butchers
Yeah learned a lot....NOT! Didnt want to watch 2 fools drool over each other.
