It used to be the favored meet of European royalty. We don't "hunt," we merely choose to grab one of the many deer that roam our property, and there are plenty. We don't eat bucks, only does, and head shots to keep the meat from getting blood on it. Just one or two a year, but the backstrap is excellent. We need to talk.... pretty sure the ass end gets blood on it regardless.... but throw it in the fridge for a couple weeks and it’s all good!!! 1 hour ago, plenzmd1 said: lived on it for three years in college. My brother in law does a venison carpaccio from the tenderloin that is damn near the best thing I have ever eaten. Olive oil, salt, jalapeno, not quite sure what else, but damn is it delicious! Can you get me that recipe????? 1 hour ago, Augie said: Cletus, what is a PA hot dog? (I’m not bad at following directions.)

Gugny Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I love venison. Roasts, ground, jerky, sausage. Love it in chili. I have a friend who's an avid (and good) hunter. Probably gets 50-60 lbs. of venison/year. Gives most of it to a lawyer buddy of his and the rest of it to some private investigator in Hawaii. I hear it's pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo86 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Love venison - have had it in stew, chili, tenderloin, and burger form. Never hunted, but was once riding with a buddy in South Jersey when a doe ran out of the woods & broke its neck against the driver's-side quarter panel. As we inspected the damage, some dudes pulled up in a pickup and asked us if we wanted it. Into the back of the truck it went, never to be seen again, leaving only a memory and its fecal matter splattered across the side of the car.

Friends used to make sausages but I disliked that even more. Haven't had "gamey" venison in decades. Not sure why... All I know is, I don't run into it anymore. 3 hours ago, CountryCletus said: I just wanted to see who out there has had any experience with eating venison, cooking venison, hunting deer, picking up roadkill, etc.... if you have eaten venison, what are your favorite ways to eat it, and if you don’t like it, how did you have it? I generally prepare it one of several ways - Ground like hamburger - just use it anywhere you would use regular hamburger - ultra lean and awesome. Italian sausage - I had a good friend tell me it was the best sausage he had ever had by far. Deer steaks - sous vide - awesome melt in your mouth I usually take 3-5 per year depending on time available for hunting - more than we can eat - give a lot away Family combined harvests 20 + deer a year - some family members don't buy beef for the entire year because the freezer is full of venison in between seasons. If you haven't had it in a while - try it again. Oooh.....Jerky too. Edited November 15, 2017 by PolishDave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lived in FL when we got her (for my 50th DBay), but traveled to Atlanta to get a really good one. Then (this is where it went wrong...) we moved to Atlanta.
