Damn, Buster.
When are you gonna move up north and open a restaurant? Your food posts always make me hungry. And I just finished eating supper!

Buster - I always heard that deer meat was dry. That piece sure doesn't look like it.

BTW, how did it taste?

busterb · 01-23-2006, 09:53 AM

Yes deer can get dry fast. Mike smoked his for a hour or so, then to pan with bar-b-q sauce and covered w/foil. I like to bone mine. Marinate over night. Then place green onions, garlic, Tonys seasoning and bacon in center roll up, bacon on out side and tie. Then in smoker in shallow pan. Turn a few times.
Mikes was ok, but he's not as heavy handed with the seasoning as me.

Dar, expect game meat to be dry. Critters in the woods live a more aerobic, less fattening lifestyle than the domestic ones. Game recipes very often include some moistening method, from larding to basting.

Game doesn't have to be dry. You just can't cook it to a charcoal state like people do with beef. Deer and elk should be eaten as rare as you can make them and still call them cooked. Deer tend to have worms though, so the excellent busterb method might work best for you.

Doesn't have to be, but be prepared for it.

Mule Deer Show Signs Of Chronic Wasting Disease

Researchers have found prions -- the infectious agents believed to cause chronic wasting disease (CWD) -- in the leg muscles of infected mule deer, a finding that is likely to raise concerns among deer hunters.

"This shows muscle contains infected material," said senior author Glenn Telling of the University of Kentucky, whose work is published today in Science. "Anybody who may be handling or eating infected deer may be inadvertently exposed."

The report suggests that all transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, including chronic wasting and mad cow disease, should be taken more seriously, said Michael K. Hansen, research associate with Consumers Union.

"No hunter should eat anything until after an animal has been tested," said Hansen. "This finding along with reports last year that CWD can move into primates should raise some serious questions for hunters."

In November, researchers at Creighton University and the University of Wisconsin at Madison reported in the Journal of Virology that CWD could infect squirrel monkeys, a member of the same order as humans.

Fuck. I don't eat deer, but if it can get into deer muscles, then Mad Cow can get into cow muscles. And with beef farms legally prevented from testing for it, there's no way to consider it safe.

And they just found another cow with the disease. That's three now. (That we know of.) But when you only test a tiny fraction of the animals out there, you really have no reliable way to know the extent of the problem.

I don't eat beef though, so it doesn't affect me. Ground pork is delicious.

jinx · 03-14-2006, 12:51 PM

If it's been found in deer muscle, what's stopping it from showing up in ground pork? Not testing for it?

glatt · 03-14-2006, 01:38 PM

Good point.

Edit: I'm not away of any diseases in pork caused by prions, but it is certainly possible.
