No. Not unless they were simply gotten.

Definitely burger and sausage for any additional deer. and stew meat. Speidie cubes, I hadn't thought of, but That's a great idea.

What are Speidie cubes?
Roasts, yes, less work, fewer bacteria. (Two bacteria walk into a bar and the bartender says, "We don't serve bacteria here." The bacteria reply, "It's OK, we're staph." I'll be here all week folks, try the venison kebabs.)

Two things:
1. You said fewer (not less)!! You have no idea how hot that makes you.
2. I'm stealing that joke.

Griff,
When you butcher how much scrap do you end up with? I had most of a five gallon pail. A lot of silverskin and fascia. I wondered if I was being too fussy. I gave it to a friend with a couple of big dogs but I wonder now if it could have been finely ground for sausage? Also how much meat do you scrape off the bones? I've seen some youtube types who show clean bones like they've been gone over with dermestid beetles.

I tasted some yummy leg meat tournedos tonight marinated in olive oil and Old Bay and some Balsamic vinegar. lightly cooked to 140 very tender, no stinky boy game taste. Bucks are not Billy goats.

Nice to know! (Yeah, I'll be out there bagging my buck tomorrow ... but a girl can dream, can't she?) The tournedos sound like they were to die for. Love the olive oil and balsamic.

I wanted to do a clone thread, Big Fat Butch Ring, but I wanted an image and I was too afraid to google search that phrase.

I haven't done a lot of big carcass butchering, but for marinating meat you can use more of that stuff than you'd want showing up in a steak. We had a professional butcher neighbor who did basement butchering when I was a kid. I wish I'd have paid more attention...

Coward.
First it says, "Did you mean: Big Fat Bitch Ring"
But hitting the "images" button give an amazing variety of pictures.
