Ditto. Apparently my wife had some bad venison as a kid and didn’t plan on eating anything I shot. Over time, she became converted with loins, chops, and burger, followed by (later) steaks and roasts.Love it!
My wife is a venison convert. We've been together for over 21 years. For the first couple years, she wanted NOTHING to do with venison (said it was gross every time she tried it). Then she started sniffing around when I'd cook it and eventually started sampling some. Then eating full portions. Then she started cooking with it. Eventually it got to the point she was telling me I needed to get more deer because we were running out of venison.
There's 1 thing she still turns her nose up to and that's venison meatballs. She has a great recipe using beef. Neither of us have ever had them with venison. But I'm getting ready to pull a package out of the freezer and use some tips from the meatball thread that's going.
Naw me and the boys thought about it and going to save the planet and go Lvl 5 Vegan, (refuse to eat anything that casts a shadow)....already traded in the rifles for an assault style carrot peeler. The produce isle aint gonna know what hit em!Talk about more incentive to hunt. After seeing this, I think I'll go "attack" another deer so, I don't have to eat this fake meat sh** or any of that lab grown stuff.
technically if you want to get morbid, picking a tomato doesn't kill it right away. Its a slow antagonizing death until every living cell in the tomato dies from starvation. At least the deer I shoot suffer less than the produce in the produce isle thats all slowly dying and being put on display for days on end. What kinda of sicko does that 😆😆😆. Just think of all the dying plant cells next time you walk down the produce isle. At least the meat was killed in a humane way!Impossible burger becomes possible with a well placed shot. Some like to harvest food, I like to kill mine.
You have her this far along, don't ruin a good thing. Use the beef for the meatballs.Love it!

For my "buck balls" I use 2# of ground venison (that has ~10% pork butt added) and a pound of Breakfast sausage - medium spicy...try that, with your other ingredients (1 egg / pound of meat / 1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs / pound, sauteed diced onions and celery, garlic, spices) and you may be able to sneak in the venison!Love it!

Soybeans are actually pretty amazing. They're a very nutritious food source for humans and livestock, and you can even use them to make industrial lubricants, textiles, plastics, and other things.If soybeans are so wonderful - why do you see them trying to make them taste like meat?
When is the last time you saw a cut of meat advertised as "just like soy!"???
This is what finally turned my wife to liking venison.ground venison (that has ~10% pork butt added)
My daughter had a thing for burger. Her mom wouldn't eat it so she wouldn't.. Mom's gone. Kid smashes burgers and says best ever....best venison burger i have made for non venison eater
used a package of jerky season, minus the salt packs. two eggs. mix very well together.
make in to 1/3lb patti and put in fridge over night.
Cook on a very hot gril to a medium.
serve on a toasted onion bun with garnishment of thier desire.
They will be back for more.
my burger is pure venison, i will not mix it with other meat.
Only time it sees any mixing is doing a meat loaf, than i run three diffrent meats.
Most time venison, beef, and pork. A mix of vegetables and some cheese.
use a good barbecue sauce for the top.
another one to convert people with.
I always have people now asking for venison from me that would never touch it before.
If they are a good cook we do some trades.
Venison for a couple homemade meals threw out the year for me.

Made these up tonight using a recipe I found elsewhere online and modified fairly heavily based on my taste and experience.For my "buck balls" I use 2# of ground venison (that has ~10% pork butt added) and a pound of Breakfast sausage - medium spicy...try that, with your other ingredients (1 egg / pound of meat / 1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs / pound, sauteed diced onions and celery, garlic, spices) and you may be able to sneak in the venison!
