From HogDog's "Recipes" thread:

To begin with we are going to start 2 new threads. One will be a recipe thread and the other will be a meat handling thread.
The meat handling thread will be for every tip or question regarding from the time the game is down to when it is thawed...

The recipe thread is everything we do from thawed to plate... I know there is a bunch of folks with way more skill in both subjects than me and I have learned a bunch over the years from forums from these folks.

Each will be a single thread and each submission will be done as "replies".

What you are supposed to do is wait 4 or 5 hours to field dress your deer. Cut it up without letting it hang. Then gripe about how "gamey" and "wild" venison tastes. (A lot of that goes on around here)
