Happy Easter everyone. How do you feel about calling a truce for today?
Peace to you and your families!
Go Bills!

I was banned for calling Yardie a coward, by DB, in a tread about women’s issues happening right now in America. Nothing better than republican men silencing women’s voices, especially in the Buffalo Spin zone!!
The Easter Bunny
The Popcorn and Terrell Owens are coming to a town near you.
Well I wasn't fighting with anyone, per se. Nice to see uppy and pmoon acted with decency to my post. Only coastal and his wife responded as, well, expected.

Easter Dinner: Elk Wellington with grilled asparagus. Cuttin' those carbs so I can fit into my bikini this summer.

Outside of the occasional snide comment from you, you have not identified who you are out here for the past couple of years. Now that your identity is out and your great protector ****wagon is here its back to the same old Mik. At least we know you can't deny being a coward.
Yeah Darlin'. At my age you need one for the "man boobs". That old guy trait proves God has a sense of humor.

You don't follow too well. I have been here just fine since before you were. And I've not been "outed." Everyone knows here who matters knows who I was over there.
And wagoncircler threatened to find me and kick my ass at least three times on the Range. I laughed of course. However, to his credit, he is not only here holding you two at bay, but he seems to be a level-headed poster in all the forums I've seen here. I don't know him. But he seems to understand his football. He likes his hockey from the oranges. And he gets you two. I don't need to get involved. So the mods can deal with you and your husband taking to calling me a coward for nothing that I've done. I'll keep my opinions to myself. At least for today.
I'm in the same position here that upstart claims to be. I just check in for a few laughs.

Depends on if it's commercially raised or wild. Taste depends mostly on what the animal eats. If it's wild, a lot depends on how it's handled. If you cut the stomach, intestine or bladder and the fluids go all over, the meat will be tainted and taste "gamey". It also won't taste good if it is not skinned and cooled ASAP. Elk are somewhat different than deer, they have a big voicebox and it's why they are able to bugle so loudly. You have to cut it out first or you chance having the bacteria infect the muscle. You also have to trim as much fat as possible. Excess game fat tastes like ****, unlike beef or pork fat. I butcher the game myself, so I know exactly how it was taken care of. When I make sausage or just grind burger, I use beef suet or salt pork to give it a little more flavor and moisture since you don't want to use the animals natural fat. Also, if you are cooking steaks, don't go over medium because it's so lean with little marble it will be tough. I don't ever go over medium rare.
