Deer Meat Help??
Now that i've finally got some venison to fill my freezer with I have a couple questions before it goes into the freezer.A lot of people in my family say they don't like deer meat because it has a wild game taste to it,i'd like to use the correct procedures to make sure this meat is just right so I can prove to everyone that deer meat is good meat.
What all should I do to the deer before freezing?I've heard different things.Some say soak in salt water other just say stick it in the fridge or cooler with ice for about a week.I killed my deer friday and I gave half away to my cousin so right now I have a quarter,a shoulder,tenderloin, and back strip in the fridge.What do all of you do to your meat to prepare it for the freezer?
My other question is what should I wrap the meat in before I put it in the freezer?I was going to try and get some freezer paper if I can just get it at the grocery store.What else can I use to wrap it?
This is my first so this is all new to me.
Thanks,
JE
