While it lacks a lot of detail, it is a pretty good general butchering book. Could use more photos of actual cutting/cuts. A good addition to the library overall

    • Should be called a cook book not a butchering book
Format: Hardcover
Great recipes, but I bought this book for steps on butchering. There was really no pictures showing what cuts were what and on very specific about how to cut up animals. I wound up purchasing "the ultimate guide to home butchering" byMonte Burch. Great illustration on how to butcher
