“Field dressing’s bloody, messy business…”

Or, at least, that’s what Dad always used to say. He always said, “Filleting fish, cleaning game, butchering, carving a roast or turkey… you keep your knife hand clean and dry. Your left hand will get messy, your knife hand STAYS CLEAN.”

“…unless you’re field dressing, then you get in there and get it done. Wash your hands in the snow afterwards, but get it done, Open up the carcass and get the meat cooling. Field dressing’s different.”
