These are so delicious, you won’t believe it’s not beef. It’s great that it’s so much healthier for you than chicken, pork, or beef. I can’t wait to use some of the other cuts we have. Unfortunately, I have several bags of mystery meat, so it will be interesting when I defrost it!

If you are enjoying deer, your should be trying some of our elk. My husband & son have been so successful the last few years we finally had to purchase a 3rd freezer – such a problem to have. Glenda
