French butchery

[Buchan]

Not a commentary on rugby. Does anyone have a good resource on the French style of cutting up carcasses, especially beef? Some internet charts, but not much use.
I seam out the muscles in the haunch but would like to know more

Piqued my interest, so I had a look. All I could really find were random YouTube videos and French articles, This looks interesting though? 'Boucherie découpe'

Thanks, I failed to find anything. It was prompted by a nice Guardian article on spending a day in Paris eating steak and chips, and it mentioned cuts I hadn't heard of

When I lived in St Ouen the local butcher had one of those charts displayed showing all the cuts of meat from beef and from lamb. With pictures of the cut in a circle and its name. With an arrow to where it came from. A muslim owned shop so no pig picture!

Things such as "hampe", "entrecote", "bavette" and for lamb the "souris" and etc.. I have little doubt that such things can be found on Amazon or eBay searching with the word "decoupe" "bouef" or "decoupe agneau" perhaps?

Well...here we go...and thanks! I was last in France late September so it was a nice thing to have to look about the internet for you.

If you use Google translate it translates the wordage into English but leaves the names on the images in the French.
