Yea, don't make steaks.

I have never had good bear steaks, even out of backstrap. Very good flavor but more chewy than bubblegum and harder to swallow.

I would throw them in a crock pot and slow cook them.

That's what I was thinking. Thanks for the quick reply guys.

Make jerky out of them.They make great jerky as long as you cut all the fat off first.

I cut some into small strips, marinated it in Stubbs steak marinade.  Kosher salt and course ground pepper.  Grilled on a hot grill with some kabobs of onion, red sweet pepper.  And then served on warmed tortillas with a little salsa, cheese or sour cream.

Bear fajitas.

I do cook it "well" as I'm a little worried about trichinosis.  I thought it tasted great...as did my friends.

I also did a few pot-roasts with the backstrap, and that turned out well too.

If it's a young bear, the backstraps and loin will steak very well.  Slice thin (about 3/4"), marinate, and grill hot to medium.  If it's an older bear - summer sausage .
