We've got a little generator; it's big enough to ensure that all fridges/deep freezers are kept cold.
For heating we've got a very efficient portable gas heater, and cooking is taken care of by a couple of camping-type gas stoves.
We have a little generator rather than a large one because our four freezers are in three different locations on the property; and I've got to be able to drag it around to them easily.
The last beast we killed was a tad over 900 lbs of prime Hereford beef...and I don't want to have that lot thaw out!
(And that weight was actual boned-out weight; not hook weight. He was a big-un!)
Although I agree with 40FordDeluxe...we don't get bashed about by the weather like we did fity years back!
