Abstract
A contemporary recording of a delicate nuptial custom motivated the author to pose several questions relevant to ethnology on the relationship of the recorder and his record as well as with problems of interpreting that record. Comparisons arise with other customs and folklore phenomena; they share a fictitious or true slaughtering of an animal (usually cattle, a heifer) and dividing up the meat accompanied by witty commentary. The "Butchering Beef" and other recorded wedding customs allude to the defloration of the bride, which is the source of their delicacy. Perhaps for this reason there are no such recordings in the Yugoslav ethnological literature.
