Deer Bacon is what we call it around here. With most of the deer I harvest, the tenderloins get cut out, and the rest of the deer is ground. The little wife uses some of the ground once in a while to add in meat loaf, meat balls, lasagna and the like. But the bulk of it goes into making my Special recipe, Deer Bacon. I do use a commonly available spice and cure. But the additives I use are a closely guarded secret. 5lbs of Deer Meat yields around 3lbs of finished product. I give it all away to friends and family, and always have a fresh freezer bag of it out in the shop for my car buddies that come by. Real good with COLD beer. Also a pic of the latest Victim.
