Big game meat should not be confusing, wasted, overcooked, or left sitting in the freezer because nobody knows what to do with it.
Big Game Cooking For Beginners is a practical field-to-table cookbook for hunters, hunter families, outdoor cooks, homesteaders, and anyone with venison, elk, moose, caribou, bear, mountain lion, or wild boar in the freezer.
