Nilgai Processing

[C'mereDeer]

I shot a Nilgai and was wondering how to get it precessed. I heard they are like beef but better so I figured cutting them up like a cow would work, but I've also heard that the processers just cut them up like deer. How have you Nilgai takers had your meat processed?

I have killed a couple and I cut did steaks and hamburger. It tasted like beef so I did not want to make sausage out of it. Cut it so it will fit on your grill! Congrats on your kill.

I do my own processing and I cut the backstraps and loins into steaks and turned the rest into hamburger. I added 2 small briskets to the hamburger grind (probably about 15%). It was undoubtedly the best hamburger I have ever had.

But do you cut the steaks thicker and bigger? I just plan on doing steaks and hamburger.

I did my own on two cows. Back legs were done into roasts, steaks, and fajitas. Tenderloins and neck tenders kept whole. Backstrap pulled and cut in half. Shoulders, neck and trimmings into burger and sausage.

Bacon wrapped backstraps and tenderloins
Tenderized cube steaks for the hams and shoulders
Ground spicy sausage and ground meat the rest!!!

i shot one last monday and processed her myself took about 4 hours but its all vaccum packed and froze. i left the back strap in whole pieces about ten inches long i have about 7 packages of those and will cut them when i thaw to cook i also cut the steaks out of the hams in round and top round steaks and hamburgered the tip roast and all other trimmings. i ended up with a ton of hamburger and alot of steaks to fry. filled my freezer no doubt.

That sounds delicious but I dont know how to cut it myself. I guess no times better than the present, to learn how to.
