I've ground the dry . Aged exterior. I don't notice it. I think when you put it in a b a g. Freeze ,then thaw .it absorbs moisture on

[@bnorsworthy80]

If you aren’t going to grind, what do you do with the last section after cutting the blade roast away? Make it another roast?

[@jonnelson7677]

You are an absolutely incredible person ❤️ 😊

[@leonardwestra817]

My son for the first time is hunting for deer in Arizona. Unfortunately I am not able to be there for him and help him out after taking a deer cause that’s when the real work begins. Your videos will be coming in very handy for him. I shared just about every video that you have I like how you go through detail from step to step, very helpful just about everything I was telling him over the phone you talked about. It is good that he have something to look at as he’s going through each step and procedure of removing the meat and doing the cuts. I appreciate you taking all the time and sharing your videos.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for sharing Leonard. Tell him I said good luck!

[@nikolasshay3294]

One tip that might help someone. I always have what I call a "dirty" knife alongside my nice sharp boning knife. During the skinning AND butchering phase. I use it when i need to do hard-core work around the bones. Cutting off legs, head, neck, or getting in between the knee joints and separating the shanks from the quarter. It allows me to always have a sharp knife for skinning or deboning. I can go through a whole animal without the need to sharpen my boning knife. My dirty knife is just a stiff like 4" knife. Hope this helps someone.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I like that idea! Thanks.

[@danielfetchak1865]

Great job on this video. I wish more people would take the time to process their own deer. To me that's part of the whole experience.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks Daniel!

[@Ericg3654]

I like to use a fillet knife to remove the silver skin from the flat iron. The flexibility in the blade helps you stay very close to the silver skin. Just like filleting fish.

[@banjohappy]

This works great on the backstrap as well. No wasted meat ! I had to show this to a bunch of seasoned deer hunters who had the silverskin side up and were pushing the knife under it to remove it. Taking forever and a lot of meat still attached. I said, "Man you're killing me" and fortunately the guy backed off and I took the knife, flipped the loin over so the silverskin was between the meat and the table, and zip zip, had the silverskin filleted off and clean as a whistle. I then stretched it out and twisted it to separate the 'fibers' to show them what was used in the old days to make thread for sewing buckskins, making bowstrings, etc. They were surprised to learn something from a 'city slicker', but I'd actually grown up in the woods and knew my way around, even though I had a college degree and a high tech job.

[@danhayward9186]

Not to flexable I have a Swedish fish knife , man you got to watch your cotten pickers

[@chiya2006]

Excellent job in breaking down the shoulder part. People can literally take the knowledge and become butchers for themselves which is more satisfying to do your own harvest

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Agreed. Thanks for watching!

[@johnhegarty5194]

Finally someone who shows you what to do that takes their time.👍🏻🇦🇺

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@robgilbert4556]

For the silver skin , esp large section, i poke knife under shallow in the middle and cut almost to the end blade up filet type and then go back and cut almost to the end of the other side. Leaves a lot of meat and then you can pull silver skin off. Great video like all of them.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks Rob!

[@tonydeangelo7317]

I really appreciate your instruction. Most videos I’ve watched are by professional butchers. They go so fast you need to watch several times to get what they’re doing. You take your time and explain very well what you’re doing. Bravo!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks Tony!

[@chaffiebombs]

Spent my teenage years working in a butcher shop. Yes we used the crust from the dry age in the grind meat. Normally double ground the meat.

[@kylemoppert3105]

I have always been amazed at those that will argue that there is no such gland in the shoulder!

[@quaileggsvermont]

Allie if you rehydrate the meat it will be somewhat soft again! Soak it in ice water until it looks like it's not aged!

[@ermaspencer2258]

Your presentation in the vids is terrific. THANK YOU so very much. You have a marvelous talent for teaching and you would have been an extremely effective laboratory professor of anatomy. Thank you again for the excellent teaching on all of your vids.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thank you!!

[@darrenmeyers5610]

Another great video. I typically roast the whole shoulder (less the lower shank) without breaking it down. As for the pellicle, I have never hesitated to add it to my grind. As you've noted, it's important to trim away all fat as well as the big tendons, but the pellicle (assuming it's clean) has never caused my any issues for the grinding! Cheers (and thanks)!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for the feedback Darren!

[@fred7854]

Hey Allie, great video. I never knew about the flat iron steak. I usually ground the front legs for burger. That's good to know. Have to tell you, Nick has what every man wishes they had. A fantastic cook, hunter, butcher and a lovely wife all in one. Love you and your videos. Can't wait till you get your cookbook volume one done. Best of luck deer hunting the rest of the season. Take care and be safe.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for watching Fred!

[@horsec5760]

I agree with Fred. If I found a hunter, butcher, and loving girl, I might get married! 😀

[@rykerinthewild1155]

She has a cook book in the works? I'd definitely buy it, I'll keep an eye out for it

[@tomlarkin6619]

Your series of videos outlining butchering a whitetail are the best I've seen (and I've seen a lot). Thanks for the formakingthem! I'll definitely be reviewing them again this autumn!

[@FGYT1]

Definatly grind the Dry aged skin . in UK many butcher dry age beef and it develops a thick almost black crust which they cut back to make Roasts and steaks the Crust is added to freash Grind meat to add extra flavour . so experiment and try some maybe add in more freash to it or add the removed skin from aged haunches to freash Shoulders for grind . you can also Wet age thou for deer we jsut hang in the skin for 1 to 2 weeks . oh its an Elbow joint dosnt have a Knee cap like the rear leg

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Interesting. Thanks for the feedback!

[@rockmclaughlin3199]

I age (hang whole deer at around 40 degrees in an old fridge) for 6-7 days. Definitely grind the outer "crust", it is good for overall flavor.

[@jpstanton3223]

I seriously do not know how you learned so much about hunting and game breakdown in just a few years.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I like learning 👍

[@jeffowens9692]

Great video Allie! I just watched the "Bearded Butchers" video on dry aging. If you keep the area where you're hanging the meat between 70 to 90% humidity, you won't get that crusty skin around the outside nor have to spend all the time and wasted meat. That might not be possible if you're hanging it in a garage, but something to consider. I really enjoy the attention to detail you give your videos though!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks Jeff. The dream is to have a walk in cooler one day!

[@tedkraft6416]

Hey Allie! Great video. To make it easier on yourself when separating the two flat iron steaks from the connective silver skin, after you make that first cut down thru the meat to the connective tissue, get a piece of paper towel or a clean rag and trap that little tail that you made, keep your knife angled down slightly toward the silver skin and pull withe the left hand holding g the cloth and that small tab of meat and skin that you created. Don’t cut with the knife hand- pull in a left to right motion with that cloth and meat tab agains the knife. You’ll get 99% of the meat off that skin faster and easier. Great videos though!!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@BoxieOutdoors]

I usually can the front shoulders. However I have taken the Flat Irons before. I really like to use the shanks for canning the silver skin and everything cook down and dissolve, it becomes a very tender meat. I have enjoyed your butchering videos. Have a BLESSED day and keep SHARING your PASSION

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for watching!! Much appreciated. I haven't canned much at all, but multiple people have suggested it.

[@BoxieOutdoors]

@@OutdoorsAllie So tender and good over egg noodles with a gravy

[@mountainmanmike8383]

I love your videos !!!! Subscribing !!! Your hind quarter video is amazing. Never knew about the gland i think i always just cut through it but so happy to find this. Usually my hands smell like deer after butchering for all day and next day i have no smelly hands so i can’t wait to eat this venison !!!! Thank you !!!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thank you very much Mike!

[@markbueche3344]

Great video Allie! Throw that trimmed pellicle right into the grind pile. The meat will completely rehydrate when mixed with the fresh meat in the grinding process. No flavor alteration at all..

[@OutdoorsAllie]

I'll give it a shot!

[@kenamatice282]

Thanks for this vid, Allie. I have processed A LOT of deer and elk in the past but I never have saved the flat iron. I will next time.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Worth it!

[@Jerry0153A]

Another great tutorial video, I like reading the comments especially the "I didn't know that" ones. I agree dry aging the shoulders is a bit unproductive. I typically wrap the front shoulders in one layer of 1/2 mil poly (used by painters to cover furniture,etc) and keep in the frig until I have time to process. This keeps the surface from drying out.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for the tip!

[@Jerry0153A]

I also use the painter's furniture cover poly to wrap all of my deer quarters while they are in the frig (if it is too warm to leave hanging with hide on).

[@Jerry0153A]

You are using a rather still knife for doing that filleting work. A bendable fillet knife works much easier and you will get more meat too. Thanks for sharing!

[@tommarymarking1579]

That was very informative. The last elk I processed produced a very nice flat iron steak. Your process will make my next one easier. We tend to leave the shank meat whole on the bone and slow cook it in a crock pot. Very nice video. Your husband is a lucky guy!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for watching!

[@Bizkaboom]

Great video Allie. One of the best I've seen as far as step-by-step goes. Really learned the details and glad you talked about the pros and cons, as well as the dry aging. No all I have to do is get my deer! Thanks.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@DRLICANTROPO888]

I do like your videos, thanks, I would like to say I am very sure there is no glands in the legs but lymph nodes, or probably they may call them like that too 😊

[@clyderichardson6475]

Use a fillet knife on the flat iron Allie. It will make the process better and faster.

[@Randal-bq5lv]

Very thorough in your explanations.. Front shoulder does take a lot of work, great video.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for watching!

[@michaelquillen2679]

For years, I tossed the shank in my deer and elk as I didn't want to deal with all that connective tissue, nor did I want it in my grind. After a friend (a fantastic chef who does wild meat as well) showed me the low, slow, and long method of cooking the shank, I now cook it as an Osso Bucco dish. I love beef flat iron. Never really knew where it came from. After this video, I'll be saving my flat iron next year to see if it is as rewarding as the beef flat iron. Thanks for the video!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for watching Michael!

[@brianmarsh9632]

try fileting the silkver skin off the flat iron the same way you would filet a fish. I hold the knife still and pull the silver skin towards the knife.

[@grege8716]

I trim up several shoulders annually but nice to get refresher, Thank You Allie!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

You're so welcome!

[@spd7171]

I've been processing my own deer for 3 years now. I have a few deer dry aging. They are on 2 days and I'm going to cut off the front shoulders today so I don't develop that outer crust. The flat iron is awesome for fajitas by the way. Great video and I definitely learned a few new tips!

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for watching!

[@michaelada1210]

Love the flat irons! Also, I take the middle section (between the shank and the blade) and roast that bone in. Make a great roast. I believe I saw someone mentioned it above but you can either rehydrate the “crust” or I just add it to the grind pile and do a fine grind.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Might have to give it a try!

[@mikewahlberg3398]

Your videos are top shelf! You do a very good job and explain things perfectly. I've been doing artisan butchering for 40 years and can say that you are doing everything perfectly. The flatiron is my favorite steak. I make sure to harvest them from all of my deer, antelope, elk and moose. I'll take a flatiron over a tenderloin any day.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thank you Mike!

[@ebro3328]

The pellicle can be added with the bone for stock. It can also be separated from the regular grind and added to ground beef for flavor. And boy can you some to your chili meat.

[@johnmilkent9488]

Just found your channel great stuff! I grew up in a hunting and fishing family. Our deer were either roasts, steaks or stew meat we also did mostly bone in roasts. My all time favorite is the whole bone in neck surrounded with a bunch of vegetables. but then again the shanks are amazing as well. Everyone likes something different I guess. The great thing about bone in is almost zero waste. thanks again for the great content.

It's a little more challenging but I love to cut the shoulder for jerky. I usually clean and quarter my deer and dry age in a refrigerator in the garage. I then wrap shoulders, hind quarters and backstraps with several layers of stretch wrap and cut up and use in the coming months. Partially thawing makes cutting much easier. This video was awesome and I saved it and subscribed immediately 😀

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks Greg!

[@kayakdan7013]

My wife and I just enjoyed some flat iron steaks from the buck I got. I have always found it tricky to get them from does, because there is not near as much there. But they fry up really fast and are really delicious. I'm also usually able to get a little stew meat from the front shoulder from the bigger muscle in the middle, then use the rest for burger or sausage. Good video!

[@TheOnsetHunter]

great videos, I love your channel. I would encourage you to get a nice thin filet/deboning knife. Also use the edge of your cutting board, while bending the thin filet knife you can literally get all the meat off in one swoop! My wife got me a Dalstrong filet knife from amazon and its killer for processing deer when doing things like removing the silver skin etc.

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for watching and for the feedback!

[@chrischapman1613]

Awesome! Four flat irons per deer, pretty cool, didn't know

[@OutdoorsAllie]

Small, but worth it!

[@brentgoff6756]

I use an electric fillet knife and once you are used to it it really helps to separate the goods from the silver skin. I am very focused on removing as much silver skin as I can for a quality eating experience. I use a Bubba blade.

Jusnuts- that’s how I do mine. Been doing it that way for years. When I first started, I had it dry aged by a butcher that I used. Have been doing it myself for many years and I age in an ice cooler, draining the water daily and adding ice. Always turns out great. And I leave it on ice for 10 days to 2 weeks.

[@brett9382]

​@michaelcobb3935, you're right, but deer isn't cow ribeye. I soak mine deer overnight before I cook it. After doing so, besides it being leaner, it tastes the exact same as beef. If you like the taste of deer it's not worth it. If you or someone else you're feeding doesn't like the "gamey" taste it's a great trick.
