For you duck fans. One smoked duck slow roasted in my smoker for about 4hours. Wife was at work and, well, it was all gone before she got home.
You guys do pretty good to!You have skills @tightgroup tiger !
Would you mind detailing how you prep the meat for cheesesteaks? I've made philly cheesesteaks twice and my kids loved them, but I used backstraps that I sliced thin. I'd like to use a less precious cut. I've got several roasts that I could use.Also have hindquarters chipped for cheesesteaks and cutlets very thin for making braciole.
Very easy if your roast are frozen partialy thaw them,if defrosted partially freeze them.This makes slicing very thin much easier.Being a bit rigid from freezing=thinner slices and better steaks.Would you mind detailing how you prep the meat for cheesesteaks?

When they say to pick a spot, I do it literally.
How long did you roast it for? Looks great!OK, my turn.
I was looking for something to fix for dinner tonight, and found, in one of our freezers, a vacuum-sealed bag of venison backstrap with a broken seal, which looked like it might be getting freezer-burned, so I pulled it out.
In the photo, the far piece is larger than the near piece, although the perspective of the photo doesn't show that...
Mushrooms and onions, cooking in bacon grease....
Add venison and sear on both sides.....
Put into a 450-degree oven for finishing....plate, and serve with roasted potatoes....
...and the wine to accompany:
Not long. 5 or 6 minutes maybe. The frying pan was already hot, so it continued to cook for a while after I took it out of the oven.How long did you roast it for? Looks great!
You can keep your man card.
We have an excellent local, family owned processor that we have been using for generations. They do an excellent job of packaging and their processing plant is CLEAN.
We have processed a few of our own over the years, but always field dress them.
A homemade chest spreader and a sawzall helps there.
Spread the ribcage and reach in and remove those inside loins before you go to the processor.
Backstraps are the large muscles that run parallel along both sides of a deer’s spine and rest on top of the ribcage, whereas the tenderloins are much smaller, and are located inside the abdominal cavity underneath the backstrap and the spine. As a comparison, think of backstrap as the ribeye in beef, and the tenderloins as filet mignon.
