I decided to keep one deer shank whole this year to try a roast. Put it in the crockpot for about 9 hours with carrots and celery. Made some homemade mac and cheese and skillet garlic bread to go with it. Pretty tasty I must say
You probably grew up not too far from me then. Recipe is still a work in progress but it’s better than paying $9/lb at the store.
Recipe:
2 lb cooked meat (70/30 deer/pork shoulder)
1 onion
1 lb pin oats
2 lbs broth
Salt, pepper, sage, garlic, all spice to taste.
Boil meat, grind with onion...
Cleaned the deer scraps out of the freezer as well. Made about 140 lbs of goetta. 25 lbs of Italian sausage. 15 lbs of summer sausage. 10 lbs of breakfast sausage. I have not been disappointed by any LEM products.
