I've had my fill of wild game meat over the course of the last half century and eventually got tired of it, actually after getting dental implants in my upper jaw the taste for food really changed, even somewhat diminished to where it was demoralizing because I really loved to eat...I have to chew and chew on something to finally realize the taste and it's fucking irritating.

Wild game, as a rule, is tough, dry and unsavory, it's all in the prep and spicing and of course cooking temp. There's no way that a moose steak is going to taste good if cooked like a beef steak. But when it comes to venison the smell of it cooking will swear one off eating it for a lifetime, the nose never forgets a bad smell.

A while back buddy up the road from me shot an 8pointer in my yard, he butchered it up and gave me a few lbs of steak, in short, after a minute on the barbecue I couldn't stand the smell, given that my area has a lot of swamp and cedar it only made sense that the meat was going to be swamping. It was putrid and I tossed it out for coyote bait.

A few months ago buddy cooked up a venison roast from a young spike horn that he bagged in a corn field in Indiana and wanted me to stay for dinner, I told him that I had no taste for deer meat anymore but that I would try it anyway...I couldn't get enough of it. Fucking tender and no wild taste because it was fed like a cow and not a swamp creature.

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT...AND SO ARE THE ANIMALS THAT YOU'RE GOING TO EAT TOO.
