[QUOTE="P7M13, post: 2078484, member: 94154"] I meant by doing it that same night. I'd have waited until the next day. Admittedly I don't know squat about Amish but read a long article by someone who went to live with an Amish family for a year. The author was puzzled by many exceptions to "no powered machinery / nothing produced by powered machinery" and asked into it. The community went by an Ordnung holding the philosophy of being present, faithful and non-wasteful at all times. Machine made mayonnaise was cheaper to use than make their own aioli, some powered machinery allowed them to make their products faster. I wonder if they have some form of indulgences. Last one I skinned was ages ago, what a nasty stench it had. Cut it from the neck back, left tail bone-in. Salted it & put it up on the "drying rack" outside -- ex-wife wouldn't let me bring it inside. Carcass and hide were gone the next day when I got home from work. I always wondered if she had tossed it. It has always amazed me about coons - they look like fat, portly buggers, but when you skin them, there's some *serious* muscle underneath that hide. [/QUOTE]
