      Did you notice the movement of the different muscle groups in that caveman steak? In my opinion it really shows how different muscles contract and why you'd maybe want to separate them.
      A little tip for learning the anatomy, which helps me, is locating the same muscles on your own body. Most mammals have a fairly similar structure. If you know the placement on your own body, you can feel the movement it could make.

      I watch for the same reason. I've been butchering in a processing shop for years, and there's always something new to learn. I turned the owner on to these videos, and we're finally trying some new techniques, and products this year. He's an old mountain man pretty stuck in his ways. Good thing these guys have beards or he wouldn't have listened to me LOL.

      ​@greenbat8018 This comment just feels weird. Who wants to think about a human body as a butcher or chef would? Humans are different because we are bi-pedal. So our muscles are smaller, weaker, less pronounced as a quadraped animal.
      Seriously though, who would want to imagine the human body as a butcher would a cow?

    My 80 year old grandfather ran his own butcher shop for 40 years.
    I harvested a buck last Saturday, the second buck I've ever taken.
    My first buck that I harvested back in 2022 was butchered by my hillbilly uncles, and it was a very rudimentary operation... They just took out any steak worthy cuts (back straps, and hind quarters), and then the rest of it was jerky meat.
    I took my most recent buck to my grandpa, and he helped me through the process, he provided me with a wealth of information on how to make the most of what I had to work with.
    I can't wait for next hunting season.
    I'm absolutely referring back to this video next year... This was the single most informative video on the topic of butchering a deer that I've found on UA-cam.
    Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

    I hope everyone gets a chance to taste canned deer meat. The shanks in particular. It takes on flavors you can’t imagine. Also possible to can stews, steaks, ground…so many choices! And the meat lasts practically forever if stored properly.
    Thank you again for wonderful lessons!

    So, I'm a lifetime hobby archer, I was a soldier briefly.
    I have a deep love for the Canadian wilderness.
    Raising a young family, 2 kids, under 12 right now, and trying to reclaim and connect with a lost heritage of Canadian First Nations and European lineage.
    This will be my first year taking hobby archery, into the forest for meat.
    But I'm loving these informative videos. I recently had the opportunity to help a friend skin and butcher their deer, and I can say it's been a great confidence booster.
    Just knowing that I can reliably resolve the situation that we create, and personally ensure that we maximize our harvest, with minimal 'waste'.
    I do consider this a blessing and a privilege, and I'm extremely thankful for Learning resources like this video.
    Thank you.

I've done atleast a dozen deer now and you guys still make it look like nothing. i was expecting like 40 lbs of meat not 68, thats crazy. also from your trimming pile, im definitely pickier. i trim off the outer dried meat from aging and what not. but i guess it might make sense cuz its basically the same as the rib meat where it'll be dry on the inside and i keep that

    Awesome video. Thanks again. I do agree with you when you say most people too lazy when it comes to removing the meat from the ribs. But some of it too is that several folks look at it and say looks like more deer fat than meat. And of course lots of references get made that deer fat is waxy and makes meat more gamey and not taste as good. So maybe talk more about what’s more necessary to remove and how much is ok to leave to maintain good flavor? I know my scrape pile is definitely more than yours. lol. I do pretty good but I’m working on trying to utilize even more.

    Decades ago I watched a live presentation by the MO. Department of Conservation in which a retired butcher processed a deer into a single meat blanket. The skeleton was intact and disposed of into a large plastic bag. It was impressive thing to see first hand.

      @zevgoldman6769 i object because it is pointless, no practical purpose. Might seem cool to guys who dont hunt and never have to process deer in the field, but it is dumb for anyone with years experience.

    Definitely your best deer breakdown video. I do have to point out that YOUR Ohio does are much smaller than “typical” Ohio does. I have never shot a doe lighter than 150# on the hoof and I live in central OH. None of the Ohio hunters I know target does lighter than 125# because they’re probably fawns. 150-180# on the hoof is a “typical” weight for an Ohio doe. You guys have more like Michigan-sized deer.

    I was a butcher about 50 years ago in a retail shop, beef, pork, and chicken only. Our knives (Forschner's IIRC) were never that sharp :)
    It's interesting to see the difference in scale between a steer (where each quarter was around 150 lbs) and a deer doe.
    Seeing meat sectioned off by pulling and just running the blade down brought back great memories.

    I've always had a lengthy question and I feel like there's nobody better to give an accurate answer than you guys. So here it goes:
    As someone that tends to quarter a deer right in the field and bring it home in game bags to trim and prepare, I don't have a big freezer or do any dry aging. Is there a specific way you guys recommend preparing field quartered deer? For instance, should I bring it right home and trim everything and package it? Or should I somehow age it before processing? Should I wait to eat it to allow the muscle to become more tender or does it even matter? Essentially my question is, what would you guys do if you field quartered the deer and brought it straight home. Love your videos btw. Keep doing your thing!
