You gotta try this!

For those of you who greatfully fill their freezer with deer meat in the winter-I gotta new secret.  First let me say that I am glad to get the meat that hunting season provided-I have found ways to cook venisen that are appealing to the family.  I am probably the most picky out of us-I don't like game/wild flavor in any meat of any kind...so I have always had a problem with ground deer....until now.  We completely boned and processed as usual except this time I put all the meat in an icechest filled with water,ice, salt, and LEMON JUICE.  I let it stay really chilled for 18 hours.  Then we cut the steaks and roasts.  The rest gets ground.  I cannot begin to tell you how wonderfully surprised I was when I got the first package out of the fridge and cooked it for dinner....It is like the leanest ground beef you can buy...mild flavor...perfect!  Even my husband said "are you sure you didn't mix up the packages?"....It had to be the lemon juice and salt in the cold-cold for 18 hours that made all the difference.  I've ate alot of good deer-but this takes the prize.  I'm so happy!  You won't here me complain about the hunting trips again!  Blessings to you!
