Learned a trick from an old timer in Pittsburgh that saved me hours on breaking down ribeye rolls.

I was struggling with silver skin waste until he showed me a specific angle with the boning knife that cuts it clean in one pass, has anyone else picked up weird regional methods that actually work better than the textbook way?

What kind of cleaver was he using?

Right? I had a guy in Philly show me how to break down a whole pig using just a filet knife and a cleaver, changed my whole approach to butchery. Some of those old school tricks just skip all the overcomplicated steps they teach now.

@caseywalker that angle trick is gold, saves so much meat too.
