What about making up a venison stock to use when canning the meat, rather than just water? Just curious- I've never had enough venison to do anything more than eat it fresh when we've been gifted by a friend. I don't know what sort of prep was done to it, but it didn't have what people call a gamy taste that I could recognize.
Brine - I'm a fan. It's not intended to drain the meat of anything - it is intended to add flavor. I haven't tried it on any red meat, but sure is good for pork and chicken.I've seen this in action....the meat is drained of any life and color and one can only imagine that the flavor has been sucked out as well.
I have never heard the brine idea... That's odd. We do sometimes grind venison and fatty ground pork together- it is a good mix and does cut the gaminess.
A young buck in rut is one thing, but an older buck in rut is gamey. My husband has been butchering deer his entire life, and the older bucks taste distinctively more like a buck in rut smells, lol. Not pleasant.
