First day of gun season is today. Been butchering deer all day.
My question is...Do any of you remove the two tenderloins from inside the body cavity? They are located towards the rear of the deer along each side of the spinal column. They are so tender that you don't even need a knife to remove them. Just use your fingers and work them down to remove.
Granted, they aren't huge but they sure are 'prime' choice.
I've never liked the taste of deer. Too "gamey" for me.
Started watching videos on utube about butchering deer. I found out I was doing almost everything wrong. I butchered a deer a few weeks ago and butchered it following the suggestions I had learned. The taste was great. No gamey flavor what-so-ever.
Anyway, out of all the vids I watched about 'How to butcher a deer', not a one of them had shown about the tenderloins inside the body cavity.
Does anyone else remove these loins?
Thanks
