Yes I was referring to the harder outside fat. Some was left on the meat that in my mind could have been trimmed off. I realize that deer are lean but the last few I shot had a LOT of tallow fat on them. I trimmed it all off as I processed them myself and figured that they would trim my beef the...

Thanks for all the replies. We only got a quarter of the last beef (which is still a lot of meat). We actually have another steer we are quarters in with different people that we are processing in September. It is a Jersey and we are allowing on grass as well as grain daily. I will pull him off...
