HOW TO EAT VENISON.. WHAT WE DO WITH IT AROUND HERE

Venison is a lovely meat, contrary to what you may have heard. It is NOT to be treated like beef.. it is very lean with almost no fat. If you OVERCOOK your venison it will be tough as horse hide and not very pleasant. The key to enjoying your venison is to learn how to cook it. You can also tenderize it before frying it. but like I said the main thing is DO NOT OVERCOOK.. should be very pink in center, don’t worry your not eating it raw, it has hardly NO fat content. I have posted a few pics for you.

you can do so much with your deer meat. you can ….

• CAN IT (recipe posted in canning section)

I love to make baggies of the chunked meat and when I put on my brown soup beans

I throw the meat in the crock pot with the beans and it gives it SUCH a wonderful flavor

you can save out the ROAST and freeze for those winter days when you are snowed in and you want a easy crock pot roast that tastes delicious… (recipe can be found in WILD GAME CATEGORY)

• GRIND IT UP INTO BURGER

you can also take some of those less tender chunks and put through the grinder to make deer burger.. I have also took bacon and ground it in with the deer (deer has little to no fat) and reserved that burger for when I grill my hamburger patties out in the summer… so good.
