RE: How do ya' ll get your deer cut?
Doing it yourself is the way to go. You know it has been done right and it just adds to the whole hunting experience.
I like mostly steaks and chops, and the rest all goes to hamburg. Like zekeskar said, I also add no suet to my hamburg. I find it' s good for burgers, even though it will break apart a bit. I much prefer the flavor of pure, lean venison burger. I' d like to experiment with making my own sausage as well.
