I am in Italy atm....met a nice young man. . I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti. Tasted a bit like chicken too.
ostrich steak is one of my favourites. with a nice red wine, mushroom and garlic sauce. Mini corn, green beans and spices sweet potato wedges. nom nom nom.Many years ago a neighbour of ours brought some Reindeer meat back from Finland, it was delicious, very tender. Now it's quite common, many supermarkets sell Reindeer burgers and Ostrich burgers, they're good too, but back then it was very unusual.
I have no idea why, but that sounds so good.ostrich steak is one of my favourites. with a nice red wine, mushroom and garlic sauce. Mini corn, green beans and spices sweet potato wedges. nom nom nom.
That oddly sounds good as well. I am surprised I did not see anything like that while I was in Georgia last week.Rattlesnake & turtle (snapper). Turtle stew is good....tastes mostly like chicken but has other distinguishable flavors...rattlesnake tastes like chicken. I don't think it's "foreign" but I doubt it's something the majority of folks would "try", lol....
It is.....give it a go if you can ☺I have no idea why, but that sounds so good.
Oh you can't go wrong with turtle.....it's so good! You should try it. A lot of folks have questioned me about rattlesnake (they don't understand why you don't die or end up in the hospital when you eat it) so I have to explain it to them, lol. I'm culturally diverse. Well....I would never eat a tarantula....lol....That oddly sounds good as well. I am surprised I did not see anything like that while I was in Georgia last week.
I'm not keen on meat at all but have any of you tried Wahgu Beef? Its probably the most expensive steak in the world... Japanese

If you want something very different, try menudo, it takes forever to make, but is really good.Oh you can't go wrong with turtle.....it's so good! You should try it.

If the animal runs it creates adrenaline and you get that really gamey taste, also if you keep the meat cold the whole time it cuts that flavor down. I love antelope, but they're one of the worst for gamey flavor if they run. If you can harvest them without making them run, and keep the meat near freezing from butchering to freezer there's almost no gamey flavor. Moose is just insanely good, it's one of the least gamey i think, even if it does run. Bear is an aquired taste, i love it, but you have to cook it very well done to get rid of the trichinella.Tried bear and moose. Didn't care for it. In fact, most wild meat is too "gamey" for my taste, excluding fowl.
That said, once when I was twelve I got lost near the mouth of the Kenai river in Alaska. I had nothing to fish with and wandered for days eating berries and twigs. On the 5th day I came across a cat with a new litter of kittens. She was wild, so she ran off...
Yep, you guessed it. Slow roasted over an open fire, that kitten meat falls right off the bone. Trey magnifique! It tastes a bit like chicken as well..
Oh nice, I never knew that about the gamey taste. Makes sense. I've always been more of a fisherman than a hunter. Though I haven't done much fishing lately..gotta work those twelves, slave to the grind and all that. Surely God didn't intend for us to live like this. Ever try a spicey salmon burger? My god they're delicious..you gotta brush after you eat them though, your breath will be kickin..If the animal runs it creates adrenaline and you get that really gamey taste, also if you keep the meat cold the whole time it cuts that flavor down.

The best way to eat any of it is fresh. I always take salt and pepper and some basic seasoning with me on hunting trips. Kill the animal, gut it, field butcher it, slice off a bit to cook over a small fire. Doesn't get any better than that.
That does sound good. I love salmon, raw, smoked, seared, you name it! I'll have to try this way if I can find it around hereOh nice, I never knew that about the gamey taste. Makes sense.
