Is beef neck tendon good sinew?
« on: May 22, 2012, 10:51:36 pm »
 I have several beef neck tendons drying to use as sinew. They have been cleaned of red meat and fat and washed several times before drying. They have been drying for 3 weeks and are oily to the touch. They will need to cleaned of the oil before use. Is there any other processing that needs to be done?

Never tried it. I know this, any available fresh sinew is good sinew. Some is just better in my opinion. Are they a nice translucent amber color? If so you can seal them up and stash them for eternity.

I tried it once, not worth the effort.  It is sinew by definition but bears little resemblance to leg or back sinew in actual usage.
