Course overview
The demand for quality ongoing training in carcass management and butchery, with preparation and cooking, added to the course makes this one of the most useful training experiences you can have. With this course, our expert trainers aimed to respond to your needs by designing a Venison Butchery Course that surpasses all other training courses of its kind. We think we’ve succeeded. This course is specifically developed for both amateur and professional deer stalkers alike and during this 100% practical hands-on course we will address and overcome the significant concerns and questions faced when skinning and butchering a deer carcass, as well as preparing and cooking the product.If we are prepared to take an animal’s life, then we have a moral duty to make the best possible use of that animal. We should be maximising the production of quality cuts whilst minimising meat wastage at every level. In this context, butchering a deer should be done with these aims in mind.Attendees will be guided in detail through the butchery process, ensuring they achieve the best possible meat retention rate. They will get the opportunity to work on their carcass under the guidance of our qualified chef, and the senior training team.What does the training course include?Within this one-day course attendees will learn:
