I’ll add that I started making jerky on Sunday and pulled the last batch off the dehydrator Wednesday night. My wife and daughter were eating it about as fast as I could make it. Made 4 different flavors and they all turned out great.
Kind of a mystery cut but I think hind quarter. Friend threw some hunks in a bag when butchering a Missouri deer. I cleaned up and cut into chunks then pounded flat with plate edge. Lightly battered then deep fried. It was man candy. Of course my wife loved it just as much.
I had some too! Back straps rubbed with Lawry’s and steak dust, injected with butter, and sprinkled a decent about of brown sugar on top. Stuffed it in the oven @ 400 and pulled it when the internal temp hit 150. Let it sit in the microwave while I finished the brown rice and kale. MMM MMM MMM!
Processor just called from SD. My deer meat is ready to be picked up. Worst case, if we don’t shoot any yotes in a couple weeks we’ll have some precious cargo for the ride home. Been craving venison ring bologna for a while.
