Deer: charts, cuts and recipes

All about deer

Everything we have on deer in one place: the plant’s processing info, the charts and guides you can download, and the recipes and how-tos from the Meat Blog. Wild game is processed for the hunter and is never for sale. Deer are checked in at the plant, in person.
