Wild Meat

[Caper26]

Hey,

Does anyone eat wild meat as a source of protien, such as deer? Deer is usually leaner than other meats and contains a lot of vitamins. Just curious as i usually have free access to deer meat each year as my father is a hunter. Anyone one have any opinions from a nutritional standpoint. Of course it is not good to eat to much red meat but in moderation as a alternate source protien.



Three men go deer hunting, two are smart, and one is dumb. The first smart one goes out and 2 hours later comes back with a deer. The other two ask how he did it, and he said, "I found the tracks, I followed the tracks, I found the deer, I killed the deer."So the other smart one goes out, and 1 hour later he comes back with a deer. They ask how he did it. He said " I found the tracks, I followed the tracks, I found the deer, I killed the deer."So the dumb hunter goes out, and 2 hours later, he comes back beaten and bruised. The other 2 asked what happened. He said "I found the tracks, I followed the tracks, I got hit by a train."

I love red meat.. Deer meat is good, so is ostrich.. I actually like those better than cow meat!

If I don't kill it I don't eat it as far as red meat is concerned. I typically put 250# of lean venison in my freezer each year.

Right on. I love deer meat also and have eaten it since a child. Also moose, rabbit, partridge, duck and goose. I bet partridge is very good for you. It is so lean and the animal mostly eats tree buds and other vegetation. Partridge meat looks almost identical to chicken when cooked in strips. Very good in a stir fry but never check the protien content although i am sure it is high. I will definately be eating some deer this year one my cycle for some extra protien. I also make lean sausages with deer meat it is very tasty and heatlhy. Good to see there are some other people who enjoy the wild meats.

I share a lot of jerky and sausage. Just like the produce from my garden half the pleasure is sharing it. This will be my first winter on these boards.....I send alot of stuff to my bro's on my motorcycle boards........be patient and there will probably be venison coming your way....only problem is we admit to things we don't want others to know here and thus it is tough to share addresses! I may have to do it through hushmail and remailers!

[MorganKane]

I like buffalo meat too.
Just make sure you dont overcook it.

 

[rykertest]

deer and elk are great sources of lean protein. Elk is my favorite. They both are really good if mixed with a little turkey meat.

I had some Emu eggs from one lady. The damn thing was HUGE. She jumped on the Emu egg/meat craze a few year back and got stuck with a ton of Emu's. She is letting them die off (she lost a ton of $$$) but she hands out the eggs. Tasted great too!

Deer meat rocks.

I use to live in Wisconsin, and had a wife, either #2 or # 3, can’t remember, but she would claim to “take off the outer skin/skim” of Venison and it tasted great.

Do they sell elk meat online? I wouldnt mind trying some of that..

Havent had that in awhile..Thats good too!

 

[hanibal]

deer meat is great for u, as long as it's not mixed w/ beef/pork, etc. i kill 10-20 deer each fall/winter and i eat about 1/2 during the year. the other 1/2 i donate or give to family/friends.

 

[rykertest]

If they do, I don't know where. I have lots of friends in the rockies and am always getting some. That reminds me, I need to place some calls as hunting season is fast approcahing

 

[jokerswild]

The best meat for you is duck meat..........now duck down and get you some of this meat

You can buy any type of meat online but although it is "game meat" it is not "wild game meat". (It's illegal to sell wild game products). The problem is that once you start farming deer or elk then the same problems as with beef arise: You have to give antibiotics when you have animals living in unnaturally high concentrations and they are fet commercial feed and bred to be larger.....since they can't excercise they are fatter. They will always be leaner than domestic animals which have been bred for centuries to have fat-marbled muscle, but most of the health benifits are lost.

 

[MXEng10]

I am a hunter as well...I prefer deer over beef anyday. It is way better for you and much leaner, and as far as red meat goes, I eat deer 3 times a week maybe 4 as a large meal. loads of protein, pig out! Buffalo is good too, but bigtime expensive. Tell your old man to bag a couple and hook ya up.

WOW!!!! 10-20 deer a year that is nuts. You Americans have strange laws which i now realize include animal conservation. In most parts of Canada you are aloud one deer a year and it can only be a buck unless you are selected in the Doe draw. Its sound sunny but that is how it works. Only Canadians that can kill that many is the Natives.

I just moved to Alberta from Ontario and i already have shot my 3 deer. I was also under the impression that it was 1 per person but here you get a general tag that is good for any sex and in any region with a general hunt and then you receive 2 doe tags that are restricted in that you can only shoot them in certain areas. Now this year there is also one more tag that i could get for a doe but it is in the chronic wasteing disease area, and i am not really interested in hunting there. My old lady who also hunts shot 1 doe so far and still has her other 2 tags available but 4 is enough for our family. I took one whole deer and made it into sausage, pepperettes, and hamburger and the rest is barbecue fare, and roasts , and lots of homemade jerky. I would live off of the stuff, but too much of anything gets borish, hence the variety.

Right on. Still the stupid doe draw in my region but that is ok there is always friends with tags who only want a couple of feeds from their deer and the rest is shared. I have not hunted deer in several years but i was fortunate enough to get selected with for the Doe tag twice. Once I shot a doe and once i shot a spike horn i though was a Doe lol....Oh well they weren't the biggest deer in the world but good eating. Did anyone ever try pickled meats such as moose or rabbit or deer in the jar. A friend made some and it was the most tender and tasty meat i had enjoyed in a while.

we have ourselves a poucher!! j/k.. too much deer around anyways! I seen 3 grazing on the side of a freeway about 2 weeks ago, around 2am in the morning, just hanging out.. 3 doe'

 

[get456]

I used to eat deer meat a lot.. .my dad always hunted.. i never really enjoyed the animal killing part, i dont know im weird! lol i always enjoyed being out in the woods though, trees, quiet, animals...

anyways, i ate venison everything, if you could use the meat, i ate it... used to eat liver pretty often too, but not anymore... my dad canned a lot of meat too, i enjoyed that, good flavor and u could take the tallow off the top and it was basically zero fat
