Thread: Wet aging

Been trying some wet aging last couple of deer. Seems to work pretty well, 2 weeks at 2-3deg then into the freezer resulted in some tender mild tasting meat out of a mature hind. Some websites recommended opening and draining out the vac pacs every week which is a pain in the ass as you have to wash out the bag and pat it and the joint dry before resealing, half the time I end up trashing the bag and doing a new one. Going to try leaving some packs in their juice this time, anyone else try this and have an opinion either way?
