My brother is a big hunter so I have tried a few varieties of wild game...venison, bear and of course the squirrel when I was young. Venison is good if cooked correctly, but I didn't care for bear it is very fatty..yuck. We raise beef cattle and if you eat free range beef that isn't put up and fed a grain diet, it has a gamey taste too. ( we have raised cattle for 30+ years and I have yet been able to convice DH to keep one for our own use, he says he can't eat something he has raised
) Most store bought beef is from cattle that have been penned up and fed grain only.
