I bet it was mixed, alot of butchers do that. Its just one of those things you have to deal with when you pay someone else to do it. The only real answer is to do it yourself if you want to know for 100% what you are getting. We do all of ours but I know some folks than "can" do it, but prefer to just pay someone else and not deal with it. My son and I took 3 deer from coolers to freezer (cut, ground, wrap) in my kitchen in about 3 hours.
