[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1414588, member: 14585"] Ideal hang time depends on fat cover and amount of beneficial bacteria in the hanging freezer being used. I read a few years ago U of M concluded most bang for your buck was 8-10 days with hang times beyond 14 days resulting in too much shrink to be profitably recommended. I would suggest asking your butcher what hang times he's had the best luck with. Because butchers have incentive to move 'em out as fast as they can, I might ask a butcher I haven't used before to hang it a day or 2 longer than he recommendss. [/QUOTE]
