    Never thought that I would need a lap top for hunting! But it sure is coming in handy today, using this video as a guide to process a deer. Watch, pause, cut, back up, cut some more.

      Not to take anything away from his great skills but he grew up learning the hard way. I've yet to process a big mammal but getting these great video tutorials makes a huge difference. I watched a few chicken processing videos and my first bird way far easier and quicker than I anticipated and after a few I feel pretty proficient. Thanks to videos like these the time it takes to learn these skills is greatly diminished and so I am so appreciative of a well learned master like this sharing his hard earned knowledge with us all. May we all waste less meat with each kill.

    Ooh Dad is a career meatcutter! This is the sort of video I need! I got to take a condensed meatcutting class in culinary school, but it focused more on fabricating cuts. A career meatcutter is exactly who I want talking to me about this. That was the perfect ad to get people to watch more of your videos.
    Edit: Oh that loin looks perfect for curing, like italian lomo. Imagine curing that whole leg spanish style. All that grind as a fermented sausage.
    That brings up a good point, can you use the deers own intestines to make sausages? I've usually worked with commercial hog casings. They say beef is too thick but I've used beef bung before too. I remember out instructor used to torment us by describing ewe rosette, hair still on & everything.

      I do try to get off all the white fat. The thin silver doesn't seem to be as much of an issue once it's ran thru a grinding twice with beef suit. The shank you see at the 15:35 mark, I would try to get a lot of the white tissue off of it. As you know some of it will just pull off. Usually what is left is the thin silver. I don't worry as much about that when making burger. I should still do a vid on this sometime though, but I'll have to wait for another deer right! I hope this helps. KPO

    when you process your own harvest, you get way more lbs & better quality venison than you receive from dropping it off at your local busy processor. the hard part is all of the man hours of skill building it takes to get to these dudes’ level(s) of ability. there’re pros & cons to both processing options, but these guys are All-Pro.
