The concept of “cooking by cut” involves tailoring your cooking methods to the specific characteristics of each cut of meat. Different cuts of meat vary in texture, flavor, and fat content; understanding these differences is critical to maximizing flavor and tenderness, especially in wild game. When butchering wild game, you can break down the animal according to the common cuts in grocery stores, making it easier to apply familiar cooking techniques and maximize flavors and textures.
