I just did one for the first time. With the exception of the straps and tenderloins, I'll never do it another way again. Cold pack in 3/4-1" cubes, I did 10lb/90min. I didnt add any water to the first batch. Next batch I did add 1/2cup water to bring the liquid to the top of the jar. I added one tablespoon of salt. Best way I have EVER EVER had deer other than fried back straps.

Pour into a sauce pan and heat, and then put the meat over white rice and spoon some on it. Man oh man talk about good.
