Thread: When to skin a animal?

I’ll say this - if like us you mince and casserole all but the back steaks, the whole hanging thing is a bit redundant. I just cannot tell the difference between a bowl of venison stew that was hung, and one that wasn’t.

You're missing out on bloody good steak from the legs.

Ah, well, theres only so much good steak a family can eat, cos of course we have Herefords too. And a sheep or two, venison, pig, goat... No wonder I’m getting a bit thick round the middle.
