Good to know! We have butchered our own deer the whole 15 years I've been married, but we always had the tenderloin and the backstrap names switched up. Saw a chart on deer cuts, straightened me right out. Started cubing, breading and pan frying my backstrap steaks this year. I'd rather have that than filet mignon. Smothered in peppered gravy...oh yeah!

Never have eaten the tail on a chicken or turkey before, even though there is some meat on there. Heard Martha Stewart refer to it as the "parson's nose". No use for the feet either. Know where those have been, lol. I do keep the hearts and gizzards for stock. Love fresh chicken livers.

Journey my friend visited China and was surprised feet are left on chicken when cooked and served. Drumstick and foot

Wash the chicken feet real good, scald, peel, cut off toenails and simmer several hours. Makes awesome broth.

Great info.
... but.. I don't see Boston Butt or Ham on any of these..

 

[so lucky]

I saw the ham but did not see Boston Butt.
That sounds like a song title, somehow.
