We did it for several years, bringing in a dozen or more deer a week from the end of season till bucks started dropping their antlers and we couldn't tell buck from doe at night under a spotlight.

But the local food bank in a town of 30k said stop, it was offensive to people down on their luck to be fed deer meat. Not like it was a big town, rural area. Blew my mind but nowdays I expect it.

On an actual cooking topic. I had something I'm guessing very few here eat. Grits. I only eat them from time to time. I never got the shrimp and grits when I lived in Pensacola and it was a huge thing there. I would rather just have shrimp. I thought about it after I visited my parents the other day. They live near the Jerry Clower memorial highway in MS and he was always making jokes about how he went to the airport and ordered grits and the woman was like "we don't serve those here". To him that was the downfall of civilization. May have been consiering the airport he mentioned.
How long ago was Pensacola? My sister lives there, and her husband is the type of guy who likes to kill and cook anything. Last time we were down there he had gotten a gator, so we had fried gator.

Any ideas on how to make these things? I am sill looking for a good set of chops for Easter, but figured make this and experiment while in the lamb zone.

You're going to cook it different than chops, braising or slow roasting.

Depends on what sort of flavor profile you're gunning for. I mean you could just follow like a beef bourguignon type recipe, or go more Mediterranean. I'd honestly lean into more Mediterranean.

Sear it off, and then get a roasting pan out. Throw some potatoes, head of garlic, lemon, white wine, a fennel bulb, red onion, some tomato paste, bouquet garnias of oregano, thyme and rosemary or whatever.

Serve it up with some roasted spring squash and zucchini, some cherry tomatoes, and then maybe make a good cucumber salad to go with it all.
