How many diy butchers do we have here?
On my sons blacktail buck (quartered and packed out) I packaged the neck roasts and loose meat for burger next day but waited a week to cut the back straps and 9 days for the quarters. Turned out 34lbs minus the burger scraps( probably 3-5lbs), a piece of back strap and the heart and tenderloins. (Probably 3 more pounds there).
Ended up with (x2); stew chunks, neck roasts, shoulder roasts, bone in blade roasts, front shanks, rear shanks, also a single pack with pieces I treat as shanks that come from the rounds, sirloin tips, tri tips, top rounds, bottom rounds, eye of rounds, sirloins and 5pcs of back strap. And the burger scraps for grinding. (We ate one pc bs, the heart and tenderloins already).
All in all was about 40lbs of usable meat from what appears to be a 3.5yr old buck.
*Not for individual sale* haha.
What’s your general break down of a deer if you do it yourself?
What’s your average yield?
