Where do you get venison?

[jesse_the_k]

Around here, it's mostly available direct from a hunter, which I'm not. (Although being Wisconsin, there's a special hunting permit to let quadriplegics hunt from their cars.)

My county's deer are risky to eat -- 1 out of 4 have "chronic wasting disease," caused by prions. CWD is the cervine version of CJD in humans and BSE in cattle.

I've enjoyed ground venison in marinara -- it tends to be very tough and very dry, so ladle on the butter!

I bought it from D'Artagnan (https://www.dartagnan.com) since I live in way eastern MA and don't know any hunters. I've heard of the reputation for toughness and dryness, so I'm hoping the sous vide helps with that (due to religious dietary restrictions I can't put butter on it, alas. wry smile) Do you remember what the sauce was flavored with?

Dry red wine, rosemary, and olive oil!
