uncballers45, I have been processing deer with my grandfather for the last 5 years. He has been a butcher for over 60 years and have been very privelaged to learn the "proper way" to do deer, hog and beef (which is pretty much all the same). Although some people like to have their burger pure deer, we tell most people to pick up a couple chuck roasts to add to the burger, usually 25% of the weight of the deer meat. You can usually find chuck roast on sale at one of your local grocery stores and $2.50 a lb is a pretty good deal. Unless it is a pretty big deer, all of the front quarter usually goes into burger, the backstraps get cubed (if you can find a cuber they make great steaks), tenders get wraped the way they are, and the hind quarters are up to the hunter. Most want the knuckle as a roast and the other steaks are either burger or cubed. I hope this helps a little. You just have to follow the sinews in the hind quarters and the steaks will just separate pretty easily. Good luck and enjoy the process.
