FLEX ROD Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Help please, I have a chunk of ground Moose meat that looks great, not too much fat but enough that it wont be dry so I am looking for some suggestions on how to cook it. In the past I have done meatballs from Venison, marinated in Rum and OJ with ground up Plums and Pears but I am open to suggestions as I would like to do something different. It will be cooked on Saturday, so please share some of your secret or not so secret recipes. Please..... Thank you, FLEX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave524 Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Did most of my ground venison as a meatloaf. I would imagine it is a good choice for moose as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeytier Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Last time I had moose ground I made burgers. Absolutely fantastic 70/30 moose with some ground pork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 (edited) You could even fry up some fat back,pour the remains in the meat and mix. For burgers or loaf. I would go with burgers myself. Chile works to. Edited December 9, 2015 by Brian B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fang Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 About half my moose ground was getting used up making jerky. I bought the high mountain kit from princess auto and did it in my oven. Did one pack (1-1.5 lb) at a time and it never lasted any more than a day or so around my house. not the best if your on a low salt diet cracked pepper and bourbon bbq was my favorite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLEX ROD Posted December 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Thank you folks, I was thinking meat balls in a mushroom sauce, over fresh home pasta or the easy way rice. But I may now split it and do a meatloaf also. Thanks, FLEX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats some nice taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aplumma Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Shephards pie sounds like a good thing to do the potatoes will give you the moisture you need. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art anything you can do with ground beef, you can do ground moose, or any wild game for that matter I want to taste the game. Why I never made speggitti sauce with mine. You just hide the real taste.

adempsey Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Some fancy burger places put butter into the ground beef. So, just add some fat to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister G Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 anything you can do with ground beef, you can do ground moose, or any wild game for that matter Yes, this is true. However, it will not taste the same because of how LEAN most wild game meat is compared to ground beef. For venison or moose I treat it the same and use the ground meat without adding and pork or other foreign meat to it. But I do NOT use ground venison/moose for hamburgers because of how dry and sometime gammie it can taste. So I use it to make meatballs, chili, tacos and nachos with it and no one knows the difference. I have made meatloaf with it, but wasn't overall satisfied with it because it was extremely dry.
