But wait, there's more! We break down the parts of the deer for storage too!

Tips: Don't miss the tail of the ribeye!  What's the correct way to take off the shoulder blade?  What can you do with the neck meat and how detailed should your trim work be? What are the best ways to dissect the hind quarters?
