Game meat

[Canadian wookie]

oks its been on my mind for a bit wandering what you guys think. im big into hunting and have lots of deer/elk/moose meat in my freezer. its a lot leaner the most beef. is there any difference in game meat compared to beef. cause id rather eat what in my freezer then rack up my grocery bill. let me know what you think. thxs

That is all I eat! Wild game is by far leaner than even the leanest beef, and is leaner than skinned/grilled chicken breast. I think it is the ultimate source of lean protein.

Probably has a better fatty acid profile too.

right on, thats pretty much what i had figured but i thought id ask to make sure i didnt miss anything. thxs for confirming it

There is a post about this in the AAS board right now. The consensus(sp) seems to be that wild game meat is the best there is when it comes to meat.

Wild game is BY FAR the most protein dense meat out there.

Moose, 1 oz cut:

Total Fat 0.274g
Protein 8.26g

Moose, 12 oz cut:

Total Fat 3.29g
Protein 99.16g

Since moose and elk are closely related, I'd guess the values for elk are roughly the same.
