Thank You Ms Faye for sharing this find with us.

Deer Season

The time is drawing near for pulling out all of those favorite venison recipes!  There is absolutely nothing you can't make with the right cut of venison.  Keep in mind that proper cleaning of you meat is the key to having something good to eat and a stringy, terrible tasting mess.  You or your processor should remove the thick outer layer that protects the beautiful, delicious meat that we love so well.  Venison is one of the leanest of all red meat.  Totally organic, without any growth hormones or additives.  Enjoy the hunt and the food!!
