Depending on which tube you use the 17mm or 19mm, the 17mm you cook for 3 1/2 hours at 170 and the 19mm you cook for 4 hours at 170. Do not let them set in the oven or they will become dry. I use a oven because smoking the sticks gives the meat a bitter taste.

Meats are kept better in the freezer. Meats can be kept in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days if raw and 1 to 2 days longer if cooked. Always place cooked meats in an airtight container.

Yes as it's boiled during the making of game pie.

A 4-oz burger has roughly 159 calories (this is just the meat).

Why

No, kennel cough is caused by a Bordetella bacterium which is not found in deer meat. However, there are risks of your dog being infected with E. coli, Salmonella or a handful of different internal parasites from uncooked deer meat, so I wouldn't suggest doing this on a regular basis.

I ate a lot of wild game while I was pregnant. You just have to make sure that it is cooked the entire way through. Even if it looks done give it a few more minutes or even seconds to be sure. I would be much more concerned with meat bought at a store than I would with deer meat. Vension is very lean and healthy to eat. You just need to know how to cook it and you'll be livin large!

Venison my friend. If you can try as "jerky" I highly recommend it.

I have eaten Venison that I had frozen for up to 1 year. I had it wrapped tight and sealed in an airtight plastic bag. (seal a meal) It was good. You have to keep the air out so it wont get freezer burn and if it thaws out, don't refreeze it. By the time I eat it all it's hunting season again. Good huntin! Keep yer powder dry! Frozen venison could be good anywhere from 6 months to a year. See Related Links.

is it 40 days all other meat does

I eat Venison every day. It is a great source of protein and much leaner than beef. It's a cheap way to get meat and being organic. Thus far I've not noticed any side effects of eating it such as some do eating beef daily. I do live an active life as well, lifting weights and running so that helps aid in my health. If being super active like me isn't your thing I would recommend eating venison/deer meat moderately. I probably wouldn't eat it every day, maybe 2-3 times a week at max.

Raw meat, whether venison or beef or any other type, can be frozen once.

If frozen raw meat is thawed, it should be cooked and eaten, or cooked and refrozen. Once cooked venison is thawed it should not be refrozen.

It can be, as it's more leaner than your typical corn-fed beef steak. Game meat is often more healthier than farmed beef because it's not fed any of the nasties like growth hormones, antibiotics, feeds that aren't good for it in the first place, things like that. Venison does contain fat, don't get me wrong, but it's a different kind of fat; kind of like the fat that you get from grass-fed beef.

sothin bout putting tuna on a plate then put it neer the sausage and it will stay in the freezer utill u remove the tuna

If the beef has already been cooked completely but is difficult to eat, then there are few methods you can try.

The first and easiest is to make sure that you are cutting small pieces perpendicular to the grain. That is to say: given that the tissue fibers have anisotropic quality (uniformity in direction), you can observe that the fibers are striated; cut small strips through the strata to reduce the mechanical interactions between fibers and weaken the overall mechanical strength of the tissue. This cut may mot be as aesthetically pleasing, but should be considerably easier to chew.

If this does not work, you could continue cooking the meat by applying a moist method of braising to reduce the toughness of the meat. Braising generally functions in a covered vessel with a cooking liquid in an oven for a long period. Braising is the technique which is employed to make pot roast and is sometimes called "pot roasting."

Venison Shelf life is aproximately, 5 days in the fridge, and 2-3 months in a freezer

There are many wines that work extremly well with game meats like elk and venison. Here are some suggestions and reasons on why they work well. As a rule of thumb chose full-bodied red wines made from grapes like Syrah, Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon and hearty Merlot/Merlot blend wines. A common grape varietal for paring with these two meats would be wines made from Syrah/Shiraz grape. These meats can be rich, have some weight and for the lack of a better term 'gamey'. The term gamey is not being used in a negative way but since these two meats tend not to be farmed , raised and processed in the same rigorous manner as beef and chicken it can tend to not take on the sterile smell of chicken or beef. Take a look at Syrah from the northern Rhone regions of France like... Croze Hermitage, Hermitage, Cornas and St. Joseph. These wines tend to take on a rich fulfilling gamy/earthy quality character of their own. You can also find Syrah in the French region of Languedoc-Roussillon which is a large region situated around the Mediterranean cost in the south of France. Both of these regions tend to blend their wines with other red grape varietals such as Grenache, Lladoner Pelut, Mourvedre, Cinsault, Cousine as well as other varieties that give the wines a rustic profile. If you prefer Syrah wines that are less earthy and more lush, rich fruit try Syrahs from areas like South Africa, California, Australia and South America. Other wines to try would be those from Southern Rhone which are Grenache based but tend to carry a rustic quality are from Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Gigonds, Lirac and Vacqueyras. Grenache from New World countries may tend to be 'too pretty' for game meats. If you really want to get into the spirit of things try Pinotage, Pastougrains, and Nero d'Avola wines.

I would not take a chance on eating venison that has been frozen for three years in a regular household freezer. I'm assuming it's also wrapped in butcher paper. I think if you defrost it, it will have an odd smell. If you don't want to waste the poor Bambi, I'd bring it back out into the woods and leave it for wild carnivores. Do not leave it near houses as it will attract skunks.
