I only wish the taste of game meat didn't make me gag otherwise I'd eat a lot of it.
I used to feel the same way about that game taste. Then the King took a deer roast and wrapped it in raw bacon before cooking it. Apparently the bacon soaks up all the game-y taste. We were left with a hunk of lean meat that tasted every bit as good as the best beef roast I've ever cooked. Not wanting the bacon to go to waste, I offered it to the dogs. Who would normally eat almost anything. One wouldn't touch it and the other took one bite and then drank water for 10 minutes straight, I assume to get the taste out of her mouth. Considering that dog loved to eat cat shit, that says a lot for how much game taste the bacon soaked up. Now we just throw it away and eat the roast.
It definitely made a believer out of me. He also has a Hawaiian marinade he uses sometimes. Now I eat venison on a regular basis. I once tried the bacon wrap thing with a duck we were given. It still sucked.
Where are we going and why am I in this hand basket?
