De-bone it yurself,as the butcher will probably weigh it and charge you the weight,bone and all.
Especially if your wanting what you suggest.
You should consider learning to cut it up yourself. Deer are small enough that it's quite manageable to do it yourself.
To make the task easier,wal-mart sell ( at least used to have ) a hard cover book called something like '' feild dressing and cutting'' big game. It has pictures to guide you through the process.
For jerky you should also consider doing it yourself. It's fairly inexpensive to get the meat ground at the butcher , buy a $20 jerky gun and some of the many brands of dry jerky cures out there, and have at er'. YOu can use a dehydrator or the oven. Pretty simple.
