How Do we Get from this to Dinner? Find out Today.

While this episode rounds out the bow hunting deer series a few things should be pointed out.  Obviously all these recipes apply equally to the gun hunter or the person with that special friend that gives away deer meat.   Additionally it needs to be pointed out these are all fantastic ways to cook lamb, mutton and goat.  Indeed lamb specifically is a great analog to venison.

Additionally in the sausage recipes you have two options.  One is to simply use 100% pork in them, if you use wild pork 1/3rd to 1/2 of the meat should be domestic pork for fat or just cut in 10-15% fatback.  The other is again to substitute lamb, mutton or goat for the venison, or for something really cool substitute duck or goose.
