The difference between a butcher who's merely cutting meat and one with genuine skill shows in how they handle bone structure, where they make their cuts, and whether they understand the animal's anatomy well enough to yield usable portions that don't waste. Experience means knowing which cuts benefit from hanging, recognizing quality by sight and touch, and handling hygiene standards that go beyond what's legally required.
