RE: Can you eat bear?
Bear is one of my favourite wildmeats. You get the same cuts from a bear as you would a side of beef, cook it the same too. BBQ, roast, stews, steaks, burger, jerky, sausage, what ever you like. Give it a try sometime, its good eating.

RE: Can you eat bear?
My buddy that I hunt with in Wisconsin got a bear the last 2 years so at deer camp I've gotten to eat it. From all the bad reports I've heard over the years about how greasy it is and generally gross I was surprised at how good it was. We had a roast one time that was excellent, and we had chops a few nights cooked different ways. All of it was excellent. Bear jerkey and those little jerkey sticks are the best I've ever had also.

Yes you can eat bear, I think I like it best as jerky.

Here's a recipe I got for bear meat from the old fellows up in Maine.
Take a large cut of bear steak, put it on a pine board and season it to your liking. Place the bear meat and the board in the oven and roast at 350 degrees for 1 1/2 hrs. Take it out of the oven, throw away the bear meat and eat the board.

It depends on what the bears been eating. I ate one bear that tasted like elk meat. I had two others that tasted like **** (i don't know what **** tastes like but it can't be good) One tasted like he had been eating dead fish! because he tasted like fish.
