How about some Holiday Bourbon Whiskey meatballs?Don't those look good?
 
Yeah they do look good. I got to much stuff in the freezer so I did not feel like pulling it all out to find the chicken breast so it will be baked chicken wings.

Have you had elk? If so, do they taste similar?

That's what I'm talking about....yum...

It was actually antelope reba ate, I doubt if antelope tastes like venison by the sounds of it.

I have had both meats. They do not taste similar at all. Antelope meat is very good meat, but if I had my choice, it'd be Elk meat, hands down. It doesn't taste like venison either.

I haven't had antelope, but with that being said, I'm not sure it could beat elk. Elk is the best meat, very good. I never liked venison, it's too gamey, although I don't mind it in stew or chili.
 
I've had a lot of Deer meat and some is gamey, some isn't. Most of the time the deer meat is not well cared for after it is shot and that's what gives it the gamey taste. It's 1000% better if it is cared for properly.

This is also a testament to Elk meat. I've had Elk meat that wasn't cared for well after being shot, and it was still great! I think that Elk meat may just be the best meat on the planet.

I've heard soo many people say that Deer meat is gamey...It's not if it's cared for quickly. I tell you one thing, Deer meat which is gamey and hasn't been cared for well...and good Deer meat which has been cared for well...are like two different meats when you sit down to eat.

The hunts not over when the animal goes down. No siree, it's just beginning. Time to get to work, and fast. Especially with Deer. Deer meat is very sensitive to being mishandled and not cooled quickly enough. And don't run up on the animal when it's down and still alive! Give it a half hour or 45 minutes to bleed out and die. When you walk up on it while it's still living, it sees you and gets excited...pumping adrenaline into it's bloodstream...which gives it the gamey taste.
 
When you shoot an animal, it runs off to find a place to lay down and lick it's wounds. It may have been hit in a vital spot, and is dead on it's feet so to speak. But it needs time to bleed out and die. If it dies quietly with no one there, chances are good that the meat will not be gamey. That's why they say don't chase the Deer when you shoot it.

Ok, so you don't want to have to chase it for 5 miles...then leave it alone at first! If he's unaware of your presence, he'll lay down, calm down, and die. If you come tramping through the brush and scare it, then the arenaline will pump it up and then he will run 5 miles...Give it some time.

You know, now that you bring this up, I think I've heard this before.

I always thought it was the white talon (is that what you call it), being left on the meat. I just thought you had to make sure you get all that off the meat. I've heard of some people soaking it in milk to get rid of that gamey taste.

I'll remember that though.

I've heard that too. I've butchered a lot of meat and done it both ways, I don't think it matters if you get the white film off the meat. Even if it does matter, it doesn't matter near as much as letting it die quietly.
