Elk Neck Meat

Cut mine into stew meat.

Made jalapeno bites out of a couple packages and everyone enjoyed them.

Elk neck tacos, after slow cooking birria style. Amazing.

Neck meat is awesome. Slow cooked for stew is really good and my wife makes a Mexican Machaca that is incredible. I refuse to take neck shots and ruin all that meat. That's what lungs are for-lol.

Just had neck roast for supper! The kids and I just loved it as always! It's even better when I throw a big slab of grass fed beef fat in with it. Just season as preferred , add 2 cups of water and turn the instant pot on for about 2 hrs. Done and incredible! I wince thinking of all the time, meat I wasted trying to trim it decent enough to grind! It's right there with loin steaks, osso bucco and heart sammiches! Roast from hindquarters is hideous in comparison, that's jerky meat.

Typically, I leave it in big slabs, sear it on the grill, throw it in the crockpot, and make tacos.

I separate the muscles out and chunk up into about thumb size pieces. Pack in 1/2 pints and add 1/3 cube of bullion, a wedge of onion, salt and pepper. Pressure can at 12lb for 70 minutes.

Last forever, good in a bunch of quick dishes or just straight out of the jar, and it’s always fork tender.

In the words of our last great president “ come on man”

I know where the ribs are, I shoot through through them! Ha.

Yeah….no sorry. Didn’t mean to imply you didn’t know the anatomy. Just thinking out loud. That’s what the question mark was for.

Grind. Many products can be made once ground. I like to make stuff I know the whole fam will jump on and eat. Burger, snack sticks, summer sausage, and ground jerky.

very little trimming, just dice and put it in the jar.

Birria - with deer or elk neck meat - trim out the cartilage and silver on the edge, find you a recipe, go low and slow and you will be loving it and looking like the pics above.
