As i said previously about us adding the clean white beef fat that is all we add to it. My family and i have found in our personal experience that if you can tell a difference in the taste of venison versus beef other than it tasting better there has been some sort of mishandling were the meat is concerned. After one horrible experience with a local meat cutter back in 2008 that is now rightfully out business and a great experience with Lind's in the kent/covington area we cut and process all of our own game meats. It's cheaper and better.When we have friends and family over for dinner they have to ask whether or not it is in fact venison or beef.I have at least five converts that said they did not like venison that now will gladly partake at every opportunity.
