Supercub has it, though I think 2A is part of the rump.

When the kids were little, like just starting solid foods, I put a little warmed canned moose shanks on a club or ritz cracker fragment...the broth would soften the cracker a bit and the meat goes down real easy. They loved it. I'd eat it too!

Almost embarrassed to ask, have butchered 100+ deer/elk/antelope, and never took the time to learn the correct names for the muscles in the back legs. So, any help would be great so I don’t have to label oackages as “football shaped rump” and “long flat rump” etc. Antelope leg ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/8wGFakj.jpg) Peeled open ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/M4UA9TW.jpg) Broken down to mostly entire muscles ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/t1J1WBt.jpg) 1a and 2a might just be trim, both kinda wrapped around the end in a blob. 1 is the football 3 is the false tenderloin connected to 4. So, proper butcher names? I'd like to start butchering our deer. How long does it usually take to cut/wrap your deer?

Never really timed it, but I’d think 4 hours I could do one start to finish and do a premium job with it, and have time left over. My shoulders and neck would be hurting from staring down though. I did 2 yesterday from 9am to 9pm but 2 hour afternoon break. 1 hour for supper. 2 hour of campfire. Several long breaks between boning out legs, etc.

I've taught my family that butchering & vacuum packing, is all part of the "hunt" !
As is making burger, in the dead of winter.
We have fun doing it.

Having a guiding hand the first time or 2 makes the process of learning easier & is a great way to learn.

We grind probably 60%+. Last year I dug out a package of "stew meat" taken from "less desirable" back and front shoulder parts and used an immersion sous vied cooker (about 125.00) 135 degrees for 4 hours and then a fast sear in a cast iron pan. Unbelievably good.
Put toothpicks in the chunks and serve with horseradish/mayo dipping sauce. We plan to shoot and process more deer this year specifically because of how well sous vie turns any well trimmed venison into prime cuts.
My wife and I can have a deer broken down into quarters loosely wrapped and stashed in the refrigerator to age in less than an hour. The trimming cutting and wrapping takes way longer. That part goes much better if you can recruit helpers....
Please don't feed the trolls!

Supercub, thanks for the names. Honestly have rolled the dice on whether 2/3/4 would make a decent pan-fry steak on various game...dall sheep, muley, elk, goat, moose. Have found that 2/3/4 pan steaks are generally a no-go with the big animals, okay with younger muleys, and no problemo with sheep and goat.
2/3/4 are all round steak. Not the best from any animal for pan frying or off the grill without a lot of time spent in marinade. Round steak is better used as a simmering steak of cut into rump roast. On my moose last fall, I roasted both hind legs. One could make cube steak from it. If it is cut very thin and marinaded, it can be stir fried It all works fine for steaks beaten with a meat tenderizing hammer and chicken fried. Served smothered with country gravy. Mmmm, good.

A cuber/tenderizer attachment for your grinder will make those steaks very good and easy to chew. Cabela's carries a good one. JMHO
Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.
