But, never with deer. Remember when 1-2 killed his first deer? Well, I finally got the meat to help make dinner.
Verdict: Pretty good. Now, I will tell you, that it is a bit different tasting than ground beef....but, verrrrrry lean and flavorful. Some would say gamey. I just say different. As you can see, I served with baby carrots, corn, and tater tots. I just can't get away from the little kid inside of me can I? :)
I also served these open faced, with cheese on the bottom. It was easy, quick, and cheap. My kinda meal these days.
I don't know your stance on hunting.....but, for me and my family, its a way to put meat on the table for dinner. I have a few more packs of ground venison to try out....tacos, maybe pasta of some sort....so stay tuned. Happy Thanksgiving Eve everyone!
I'm thankful for being active again. After a week's hiatus from a major illness, I'm finally ready to tackle the treadmill (good thing right before Thanksgiving, huh?). Can't wait to listen to my music and rock out while walking!
Enjoy!
See you Friday for another quick meal~
