This has probably been discussed at length, but last week I wanted some cubed steak. The wife went to Publix and got a package of the Greenwise beef at $7.99 a pound. First, I wouldn’t have bought the Greenwise. I cooked it up with onions and gravy and it was tough and didn’t have good flavor. The last cubed venison I had was everything the beef wasn’t. Tender and great flavor. The wife won’t eat venison though. So here’s my question. For you guys that take a deer to the processor, what does it cost per pound for the meat you get home with? I know processing has gone up a lot, but I still remember getting a deer processed for about $40. Doesn’t it run about $80-100 now, depending on how it’s cut up?
