Well got a buck on Thanksgiving, didn't get to hunt much because of work and it was nice the Temps went above freezing in MI.
First time processing the deer myself, growing up always took it to get done but the place I used stopped and prices are now like 75 on up.
Last year I got 3 and took it to a friend of my mom's and she helped me.
This year tried to remember and do it myself. Got a few of the prime steaks out but then the rest I kinda got lost and ended up with just big chunks of meat I cut into pieces . So sadly might have missed out on some good cuts and they are now mixed.
Ground up some for burger and any of the bigger chunks that looked good I figured mark as roast for slow cooking or made into chunks .
Sadly after doing more research i guess the consensus is to hang and age them which I did not so I guess I missed out on better taste. Also I wasted some meat it seams off the neck and apparently people cut the ribs into pieces to cook and keep some cuts on the bone, where I took all the meat off the bone. Oops.
Anyway what are some recipes and marinades to slow cook the roasts or little chunks to stir fry?
In the past I only dealt with steaks which I just seasoned, seared and ate medium done or burger which I mixed with hamburger in pastas.
Since burger is a lot of work with old hand grinder I only ground up the really small stringy meats or thin cuts etc and the rest I left as roast or cut into small pieces.So not so sure how to use them.
