Best-Tasting Game

I just ate some backstrap from a buffalo (North American Bison).

Maybe I'm unduly influenced by the fact that it was the last thing I ate, but man, oh man, it's got to be at least tied with the best-tasting game.
 
After a Long day of hunting I was blessed with elk steaks!

I was hunting last year with a good friend of mine who has recently re-discovered the art and joy that is hunting. We were hunting turkey, at the time, on my dads farm on southern KS. Fortunately we have a very good relationship with our neighboors and we share our land and hunting grounds and often congregate to burn rats nests and what not. Anyway, after a long day of hunting we headed back to home base where our good friends from colorado had some elk steaks cookin on the grill! I swear this was the best meal I have enjoyed in a long time. friends and beer by the fire, meat and potatoes cooked to perfection, all tellin stories of the days hunt= great times. thats why i love hunting... the share of the plunder, the campfire, the good eats, and ofcourse great friends to share it with! so the moral of my story, ELK STEAKS ROCK!

I don't have a favorite. I like what ever wild game critter I harvest. They all have their own unique flavor and I enjoy all of them. That being said Whitetails and Moose are near the top followed by, in no particular order: woodcock, partridge, dove, snow shoe hare, ducks, gray squirrels oh and yes believe it or not even the hind quarters on a porcupine. I only had the porcupine once, my grandfather told me that they were good to eat and he said if I shot one he wood cook it for me. Not being one to be picky at tring something new I took him up on the offer and believe it or not it was pretty good. If you think about it they pretty much eat the same things as snow shoe hares so they shouldn't be too bad.

Grouse in a light Garlic sauce is also terrific. That said, Grouse slow cooked on the BBQ is also a favorite of many. A large dollop of fluffy mashed potato with butter or gravy and biscuts goes swell with Grouse.
