What other alcohol goes well with venison?
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.
You have had frozen deer meat in your freazer for three years is it any good now?
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.
Can you get a disease from venison?
If you eat it, yes. Eating any spoiled meat will most likely make you sick.
Recipes and methods for roasting venison are more numerous than hunters! You can use a dry or wet roasting method, keep the lid on or remove it, add onions, potatoes or other vegetables, etc. Seasonings also vary widely, as do methods for adding them. Seasoning can be injected, rubbed on or added to liquids in the roasting pan.
Whatever recipe or method you choose, the basics remain the same. Overcooking venison will cause it to become tough, as will cooking at too high a temperature. Older deer will require a longer cooking time to become tender. Fresh wild game (that has not been frozen) must be cooked thoroughly to destroy parasites that may be present. In general, cook venison to medium or medium-well. Usual roasting temperature is 350F and meat should measure 160F internally when done. Acidic marinades will help to tenderize.

The best way to freeze deer meat is to wrap it with freezer paper. This is a white paper that has one side covered with a wax like materiel. Wrap it like a butcher by placing it in one corner(like home plate on a ball diamond) on a square sheet, wax side touching the meat. Then fold it over and tuck in the right and left triangles ( first and third base). Then keep folding until you run out of paper (to second base).
It will easily last three months in a refrigerator freezer that has auto defrost or frost free feature, or six months to a year in a deep freeze with out freezer burn.

Beef is from the French "boeuf" which means cow, and por from the French "porc", pig. Likewise mutton is from the French "mouton" sheep. Back in Norman times, these were the main farm animals - turkey, chicken, etc. cam later. The poor farmhands who tended the live animals called them by their Anglos-Saxon names of cow, pig, sheep. The rich Norman lords called the meat they ate by their French names boeuf, porc and mouton. As the two languages merged to form the English we now speak, the meats kept different names from the animals. Later arrivals did not have this split.

Dehydrating is still cooked beef. Beef jerky can be "dehydrated" in the oven too which is just "cooking" the jerky until it is dried out enough to be called jerky and be kept for an extended period of time out of refrigeration. I have made jerky for years and have tried both methods. It usually takes about 8 hours.
