Thanks Marielle, I have found this way works best for me. I hope others find it helpful.

Thanks for sharing- Is there any trick that you use to remove the gamy smell

[@Healthymeatoptions]

There is very little you can do. That gamy smell only comes from mature stags during the rut. As I hunt deer only suitable for the table, I mainly take females and stags under 30 months.

@@Healthymeatoptions Good to know, there is a hunter I know and he coats the meat with ginger and garlic minced together and when he cooks it helps remove some of the gamy smell.

That makes sense. If I do get a stag during the rut I usually make burgers and meatballs. I add spices to it also.

What do you about the horrible waxy coating the deer fat leaves in your mouth after eating it?
