standard is 2-3 days,
but can vary
say 2-7 days
how well the venison was prepared before freezing,
faster it was frozen from harvest, less bacteria on it to start growing after defrosting
also the cut, less surface area, less area for bacteria to hold and grow,
hence why ground usually goes bad faster as it has lots of surface area, and in contact with lots of surfaces and such
