I don’t hunt. I don’t particularly care to go hunting, ever. I’ve been to a shooting range once, and I’ve shot arrows at targets a couple of times, but that’s the extent of my interest. I can’t even stomach filleting a fish, and I have to not think too much about eating chicken on the bone.

However, I have a friend who hunts with her husband, and we were blessed with a gift of several pounds of ground venison! I had heard that venison is leaner than beef, but I was amazed that I didn’t even have to drain it after it browned.The boys loved every, single dish we made with the venison.

We’re going to make arrangements to pay for processing on additional venison and perhaps some wild hog. What a huge help for the grocery budget – meat really adds up! Hooray for friends!
