With the exception of the tenderloins and the backstraps, I cut the entire small Whitetail buck I got a few weeks ago into super well-trimmed stewing cubes.

It was fairly time consuming separating every muscle group and using a fillet knife to remove absolutely all of the silver skin from each of them prior to cubing, but hopefully will result in peak flavour and minimal “gaminess”. The tenderloins and the backstraps were amazing so I have little doubt.

Tonight we get to try it out in a slow cooked stew. Not an entirely carnivorous meal, but at least the veggies were grown at home.

Even with the grind I spend a ridiculous amount of time trimming out fat and sinew and trying to not waste. I toss the bones to the chickens to finish up the job. Later the bones will be made into bone char ;)
