While reading other posts about aging meat it seems that some people age the deer for 7-10 days (or longer). Maybe I am doing it wrong but my processed and cut venison tends to spoil in my fridge after 5-7 days in a sealed container and I don't believe it ever lasts for more than 7 days in a cooler with ice in it, if I don't process it and freeze it. Sometimes I feel it has spoiled after 5 days unprocessed, skinned and quartered in a cooler with ice.
Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?
I always struggle to process my own deer because I want to age it but I also don't want it to spoil. I work 5 twelve hour days on my long stretch and its hard to work one up on these stretches. If I leave it unprocessed I'm always concerned that it will ruin before I can put it up.
