I always keep the neck and shanks Hey, Don't Throw Out the Neck From Your Deer - Deer & Deer Hunting | Whitetail Deer Hunting Tips

Also contains a vid about butchering

But after taking the meat off I save the rest and use in a cabbage stew, any remaining meat falls off the bone and is added to the recipe. Or you can tie up the chunk as a venison neck roast.

I'm a big fan of sauerbraten with neck roasts myself. But that's the half German in me. Either way, it's some great meat if cooked right.

I love shanks also, I simmer them as you would Lamb Shanks and when I buy a Leg oLambb I save the 2 leg bones, 1 for the cabbage stew and 1 for the Venison shanks, it gives the gravy some added flavor.[tasty] Ps. love Sauerbraten.

I have many variations but this is Sauerbraten My Way


1 2-2 ½ pound Venison Roast, I used the eye of the back leg minus 2 steaks.

Marinade:
1 cup Merlot wine , 1 cup red wine vinegar, ¼ cup pickeling spices (tied incheese cloth),a few dashes of salt and pepper ,1 carrot ,1 celery stalk ,1 small onion,(chopped) All simmered and cooled and poured over meat for 2 days
.Then drain and pat dry, Simmer marinade and strain. Brown meat, add marinade and 1 can chicken broth, and 1 small chopped onion.Simmer on top of stove 3 hrs. Remove meat, and make gravy,
Gravy:
To the Juices and marinade Add 7 ginger snaps (cookies),1 tbs sugar, 1 Tbs flour mixed with 3 ozs cold water, and 1 teaspoon gravy master. ( a browning and flavoring sauce) Makes about 2 cups. Heat till bubbly and serve with,Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Red cabbage and apples, and pumpernickel bread.

Shank meat is awesome!

Just noticed this. There is never an excuse for wasting any fish or game meat. If you can't use it, don't kill it.

[QUOTESometimes we have time issues that might cause us to just take the choice cuts, but whenever possible it’s just a good deal to use as much of the nutritious, delicious venison we kill and not waste anything. - See more at: ]Hey, Don't Throw Out the Neck From Your Deer - Deer & Deer Hunting | Whitetail Deer Hunting Tips[/QUOTE]

I use the neck in spaghetti sauce, I use all the ingredients I would on the stove but I put it all into a black aget roasting pan u use for the turkey. Low and slow. I put it into the oven after dinner and let it go all night 8-10 hrs the meat is like a pulled pork or bbq. Makes the best sauce. I get all my buddies necks for free now I have to make them some sauce
