Different how? It's still marrow and cartilage isn't it? Lots of articles on the subject out there
I don't know all the finer scientific principles of the makeup differences of them but I would assume it's the same as how you don't want to eat or cook with the fat off your blacktail but it's great with beef.

Next elk we get I want to save the bones for making stock. Assuming I get a deer or a bear it'll be a backcountry hunt so I probably won't be able to bring the bones home unless it's a fairly small deer/bear.
After a lot of research that my wife did, and I got the summary of... I'll pack out the bones. I'll make the extra trip for them even (within reason).

Interesting. I guess, depending on how bad the hike in turns out to really be, I'll consider bring the bones out too then.

LOL this was referencing a back country hunt, not a back yard hunt. Think you'll make it on this one??? ;-)

I'm not sure I'm at the point where I will be keeping hooves, mostly because I just don't want to spend hours cleaning all the crap and dirt out of them. That being said... We are killing the animal, seems kind of disrespectful to not get the most out of it.

I haven't made any with wild game yet, but I've done chickens, turkeys, and prime rib bones. I use the slow cooker and toss in a bunch of veggies, seasoning and the what's left of the carcass.
I also did some stock from/with pork carnitas this weekend. I made the the pork roast in the slow cooker, refrigerated the stock and drippings separate from the shredded meat on Saturday. Then Sunday I peeled the fat layer off the stock and reduced the rest of it on the stove. The shredded pork was then lightly 'fried' again with olive oil and the reduced stock. :drool: I put half of it into enchiladas with green sauce, and the other half into the freezer for a quick weeknight meal.
We make bone broth every couple/few weeks. Standard ingredients for us are feet. Pig feet, cow feet, chicken feet. We'll often throw in some pork neck bones, mostly because they have some meat which adds flavor. Roast in the oven for an hour, then into the crock pot with enough water to cover and a splash of vinegar. I've used some deer shanks mixed in, and it was good also. For us, it's more about tendon, cartilage, connective tissue than the bone itself. Set's up in the fridge like ballistic gel!Angry Perch, How to you clean the chicken feet before use? I always feel uncertain about adding feet.

Funny. My wife thinks it's gross so I just go with it.
I agree. If you just look at it accumulated on top, it looks nasty. I kind of have to turn away while letting it re-heat so i don't have to imagine eating it later LOL

Sumpnz, you'll have to forgive the weird foo-foo feeling this site gives you, but the research is pretty solid.

You can buy pigs feet so easily I'd not worry about not saving a deer or elk hoof.
I got 4 pigs feed recently for free. I know a family that raises pork and they gave them to me as otherwise they'd have just gone in the garbage. Mind you, I'll have to scald/scrape them myself as they skin their pigs. If you don't want the skin, you can also just buy pigs feet at Fred Meyer for $2.29/lb. Ethnic grocers might have them cheaper.

I buy chicken feet from Saars grocery and they are already peeled but I have to clip the nails off.If you are taking the feet off of a freshly killed chicken it requires a blanching to remove the outer skin (yellow).Putting the feet in cold water after blanching in boiling h2o and then peeling them will get rid of any dirt,too.
Just like tomatoes? Might have to try that sometime.
