Got into work today and the boss said that we were getting an elk coming in.
I’ve never messed with elk meat before..
The meat was already deboned when it came in..
I was amazed at how big the back straps were.

I butchered for a few years and I remember occasionally getting surprised with a critter I'd never cut up before. I cut up on onyx from Texas once and the guy that brought it in only wanted the steaks from it. Some of the best burgers I ever had.

I like oryx. Never killed one have eaten it often at freinds. Did you get a piece of that back strap? Elk is delicious also.

I got a little bit of the elk burger.. it was what was left behind in the grinder behind the plate.

Put 90#s in a backpack and haul it 2 miles. Amazing how its about 125# when you get back to the atv
