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.

It's been several years since i've eaten elk and I loved it. Then again, my buddies old lady was a dynamite cook so she knew how to prepare it.

Elk is too gamey. Lived in Boise, ID for a few months so I had my fair share of it and I'm not a fan

How did your dad get you out of the basement to go hunting with him?

Soak overnight in milk, preferably buttermilk, to take the "gameyness" out of it. Both work very well.

But...when I was researching how to prepare venison, I agree with what one person said. It isn't beef..if you want beef, buy beef. If it is something prepared in a slow cooker and it was soaked overnight, the difference is negligible.

Cooking a venison steak on the grill, to me, is like cooking round steak on the grill.. not enough there to keep it from drying out.

We have friends whose children won't eat hamburger, because they have basically been raised on ground venison as a substitute. They say hamburgers taste greasy.

You know what's worse than a rat? A rat who's not telling the truth.

Actually rats are extremely intelligent little creatures. And they can be trained like a dog! They make great pets if you can get past their tail. I'd like to get one but I'm not allowed to add anymore animals to my already growing brood. But when my ban passes, I'm getting a rat and a hedgehog!

You don't have the flair for drama...

Bwahahahaha

You know statements like that make you sound like a old dude!

Who has risen??

Don't you go to church?!?!?!?! JESUS HAS RISEN! That's what happens on Easter. It's not all about candy and bunnies, it's an actual religious holiday, probably the most religious holiday in the Christian calendar. And, just so you know, Jesus is risen after he is put to a very violent death on a cross on Friday (Good Friday to those of us who actually celebrate and believe).

I have 3 bunnies here, one's a lionhead & he plays with his mane all the time.
