GaryPinC Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Venison's great stuff. I heard the gameyness is due to lactic acid and certain hormones built up in the muscle. So a buck during the rut is bound to be gamey, or a deer that isn't quickly killed. Diet is also important as I've had some corn fed deer here in Ohio that barely taste like venison. Venison definitley has it's unique flavor that makes it kind of a love/hate thing. Favorite recipe is a red wine marinade for ka-bobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordio Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) My friend is a big hunter & he brings over some venison every year. I don't mind it, it is okay. He does these kabobs that are pretty good & the tenderloin in the crock pot turns out pretty good, he also makes jerky that is decent. With that being said I would much rather take the 5 minute drive to Wegmans, buy a nice ribeye & throw that on the grill. That is just me though. I used to eat a ton of Raccoon & Squirrel but I stopped because my doctor told me they were high in cholesterol.

Johnny Hammersticks Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Venison farts are lethal. Especially when you throw a few beers into the equation. I don’t hunt anymore, but a lot of my friends are getting deer right now so we have been given a bunch of meat. I like the steaks best marinated with some soy, ginger and garlic. You really have to be careful to not over-cook it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Favorite recipe is a red wine marinade for ka-bobs. gameyness is / was more in buck than doe I always managed to miss the bucks. I had better luck with doe. Funny story - (well to me it is) the last deer I got I was doing everything you weren't supposed to do when hunting Shotgun down, light cig in mouth and my "other gun" in hand ... I spit out the cig, grabbed the shotgun, took aim and fired. My brother and his friend crested the hill as I was zipping my pants up as I stood over the deer. they asked Getting it while its fresh?

Wacka Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) My brother's friend hunts. We have gotten ground veniso n from him and we eat it in tacos. Had some at the fanciest restaurant in Basel Switzerland while there for work. Better than the best beef I have had.

TheElectricCompany Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) I keep it simple with deer meat, sear the backstraps with some onions and butter, quarters go into the crockpot. I grew up in a hunting family and if there's a way to cook deer, we've tried it. We've got about 1/2 an elk from muzzleloader season in the freezer and everything has been outstanding. I think they blow deer out of the water. Backstrap is seared HOT and then into the oven at 450 to finish. Neck meat is cooked low and slow in the crockpot, then shredded for tacos. We grind up most of the front shoulder for breakfast sausage, then the rear quarters were cut in 2-8 lb chunks. The smaller cuts are excellent as steaks (We call 'em Q-Cuts), but the larger pieces will go on the kamado for 8 hours, cooked like a top round for elk on weck sandwiches.

Farm raised deer are fed food that creates a more palletable meat, and the meat isn’t as tough. Farm raised deer also tend to me significantly larger than their wild counterpart. Look up the size of a farm raised deer’s inner loin- they are huge compared to that of a wild deer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
