benhunter 1 Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 (edited) you can skin it, remove as much meat as possible, simmer it for a an hour with the antlers out of the water, then if you have a power washer, use it to blast everything else off. try to get the brains out before you simmer it and apparently if you add some washing powder it helps (but not washing up liquid). if you want to really get carried away try this : http://www.ehow.com/how_4547449_boil-skull-european-mount.html b.
