No one will know. The way my brother handles the deer, it is not gamey. It’s very lean meat so mixing with beef or even ground pork works well.

I was surprised how many chili recipes call for sausage - the one I am using does (1lb). The venison will be 1/3 of the meat & with all the spices, it will be undetectable.

QUESTION: do you gave any good sources of info regarding trellising a veggie garden? My niece wants to try it this year. I sent her a couple of links, but you might know a better resource.

The Square Foot garden guy uses metal posts with wire (board on top to keep posts apart when stretching wire). This is cheap & easy enough, could use it with her raised beds. Just one idea I sent her.
