HEALTH BENEFITS
Why eat it.
- ✓Excellent source of lean protein, crucial for muscle building, repair, and satiety.
- ✓Lower in fat and calories than comparable cuts of beef, making it a heart-healthier red meat option.
- ✓Rich in heme iron, which is highly bioavailable and essential for preventing anemia and supporting energy levels.
- ✓Provides significant amounts of B vitamins, particularly Vitamin B12 for nerve function and Niacin (B3) for energy metabolism.
COOKING TIPS
In the kitchen.
- 1Due to its leanness, venison cooks quickly and can dry out. Cook to rare or medium-rare (130-135°F / 54-57°C) for the best texture.
- 2Marinating the steaks for at least 30 minutes in an acidic base like wine, buttermilk, or vinegar can help tenderize the meat and add moisture.
- 3Sear the steaks over high heat to create a flavorful crust, then reduce the heat to finish cooking without overdoing it.
- 4Always let cooked venison rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
STORAGE
Keep it fresh.
- Refrigerate fresh venison steaks immediately at 40°F (4°C) or below and cook within 2-3 days.
- For longer storage, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and freezer paper or vacuum-seal, and freeze at 0°F (-18°C) for up to 12 months for optimal quality.
