Deer Meat Is Good
Deer steak is good. Young deer meet from a fawn is more tender and melts in mouth. Their bodies are too small and don’t yield as much meat as a mule deer body. The mule deer meet is tough. The heart is good. A good deer heart if sauteed and slow cooked can create a treat that is firm enough to give one a chew, but loose enough your jaw doesn’t hurt from after a chew.
I really like the fry the fat of deer and chew at for days after having a deer steak.
The antlers also make good hat racks I can sell at the farmer’s market.
