We want you first to think about a great piece of steak. Why is it so good? The reason lies in "how" the animal was raised and "how" it was brought to market.

Most beef cattle are raised on ranches in the open plains. But they are not brought from the ranch to market. Why? For two reasons:

First, free range animals on the open plains are athletes They have to be in top condition to survive so they run and jump and play as hard as they can. This means their muscles are hard and tough.

Second, they are raised on Grass and trees and shrubs that are protein

So what make beef (or venison or elk or bison) tender. Easy, farm raised animals are brought to feed lots, penned up and fed a diet of corn. Corn is high in carbohydrates. Their livers convert the carbohydrates into fat. Lots of fat in the meat makes a more tender cut. In short, the best steaks, the most tender meat comes from a farm raised animal that is penned up, stuffed full of food and becomes a big fat slob. Athletes to not make good eating.

The Japanese are the best in the world at this. Their "Kobe Beef" is world famous. The cattle are penned up, never allowed to move more than a foot or two every day, fed a diet of mice and corn mash from the breweries and massaged (yes, massaged) daily. The result is an unbelievably tender, succulent meat.

What has all this to do with game? Game is wild. To survive, it must be athletic and able to move away from danger fast. It can't be fat and live long, unless, like a bear, it is at the top of the food chain. .

Venison is particularly sensitive to this because deer are not grazers. They will starve first. As many homeowners know to their dismay, deer feed on buds and shrubs and fruit that falls from the trees (for example, apples). They also feed on corn and maize. The most preferred evergreens are hemlock, yew and arborvitae. The also love to eat apple orchard, fruit trees, hydrangeas, lilacs, maple, birch, viburnum and dogwood.

This means that wild game is low fat, lean and must be cooked rare and never overcooked. If game is overcooked, the fibers in the meat clench, the juices melt away and it becomes like leather.
