    I started watching your videos about 8 years ago. I don’t know what it was, but something stirred inside me, driving me to learn about meat. No one in my immediate family was a hunter or a butcher, so I was never exposed to any of it, yet I found myself drawn to watching your videos and learning as much as I could about meat. Fast forward to now, I’ll be going on my 3rd Alaskan moose hunt 3 days from now. Your videos inspired me to keep learning and driving into this art. Thank you for your great content, and I just ordered your book!

    I leaned so much more on this than on a paid butchery course (only a one day event).
    Keep them coming.
    A late friend was a butcher, he did have a food bandsaw. But not used ok the butchery.
    He would cook off lots of the leftovers that didn't sell, such as brains, and freeze them in gravy as huge . blocks. Then bandsaw off lumps for his dinner.
    (It was quite the clean up job when it came to us when he passed away.

    Always loved going to nan and grandads for Christmas lunch as a kid and grandad pulling a venison hunch out the fridge, bone in and shank left on. Nan always cut the shank off and had that, the rest was roasted.
    Seems a shame to have turkey now at Christmas instead of venison.
    I might have to start this up again now they are both gone.

    Very thorough, very inefficient.
    Most customers here don’t want bone in steaks. They want the tenderloin, backstraps, a few roasts, and the rest into grinds for sausage; sometimes jerky.
    I’d just leave them in the hook, on the rail, put a tub underneath it on a milk crate and giver. I’d do 16-20 deer/antelope per day during peak season and made about $60-80 per. Pork trim for mixing in the grinds was an extra fee along with any spices and supplies used in jerky or sausage.
    I don’t miss those days, but the money was good.

    Other then the Shanks, Chops, Rib-meat, and stringing sections of meat. This is how I butcher my deer every year.
    The Chops go with the lion meat, the shanks/stringed up sections get ground up, and rib-meat goes to the animals.
    I also try to cut off as much sinew as possible and put all the meat into a tote of cold water with a garden hose running slowly.
    The water bath helps any loose hairs to rise to the surface and rinses out as much blood as possible (less wild taste).
    Also other then some knife-skill involved an intact heart is the best organ meat in my opinion. (it's a tender muscle after all)

  • @George1mac
    @George1mac Рік тому

    Really enjoyed your presentation...love how you do not waste anything. I try to not waste also and it always bothers me to see so much thrown out by others. In any event, if we get a local Tennessee deer in the East, we leave the bone in much as you have...there is Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in West Tennessee and other states, so the bone is not left in place. If we go out of state and harvest, the deer has to be completely deboned to bring home, so a traditional neck roast is out of the question as is any other bone in preparation. I have never had the lung or Kidney, so I plan to look up how that is prepared.

    @Aikidoman06 Рік тому

    I’ve hunted my entire life, cleaned hundreds of deer. I take the tender loins, then turn the reds into stew, hamburger and sausage. I do 70% venison to 30% beef fat for hamburger and sausage. This fits in my freezer best and marches how we eat. When we cook we will mix regular beef hamburger with our deer hamburger when cooking anything that called for ground beef. We do patty and link sausage for breakfast meals, but if you use sausage in a dish or dip we add pork sausage 50/50. Stew meal is great as is for soups and stews, or something like beef tips or garlic butter steak bits. Deer is ultra lean so we cook it hot and fast alone and add it back at the end.
