Hi All
My slaughter and butchery skills have come a long way since we bought the lifestyle block, but one thing is proving to be my nemesis : Skinning .
Most of the time punching out the carcass goes pretty well, but I've seldom got to the stage where I've skinned a carcass as cleanly as I'd like - and by cleanly I mean perfectly with no flesh left on the hide.
Every animal I kill seems to be different - some have been easy , others extremely difficult to get perfect.
So My question : What would you consider to be your key tips and critical success factors in skinning a lamb ?
So far my list is :
- Use the thumb to seperate the skin off
- go slowly
- use water
- punch out as much as possible while the carcass is on the ground
regards
Tim
