We ate the wolf......Yummmm!

[Big Fin]

Well, we finally got clearance as to how to cook the wolf and mitigate the disease risk. We did that recently. I ruined the texture by overcooking, a result of being too concerned about disease risks. Next time I will find a way to accomplish the disease objective and not ruin the texture of the meat.

Summary, the crew voted 9-0 that they would eat it again. I was very surprised by the mild flavor. I will be keeping and eating any wolves we take in the future.

Braver than eating a wolf is leaving the comment section on.

Everything is a taco if you try hard enough. Very cool Randy!

Thanks for not popping the eyeballs out and eating them in the field

I used my sous vide on a prized whitetail backstrap last summer, completely turned it into a "mush" consistancy (lower temp though). I would guess that a pressure cooker would help out, but have no idea what amount of time would be required to pasteurize

If you put enough pucky on it even a turd will taste good.

I find the double sear helps; sear >Sous vide> sear> serve.

I go super hot cast iron with avocado oil, since it has a super high smoke point.

What exactly did you say in the video @Big Fin Condiments are Communist food? I about spit my coffee out this morning Mayonaise Killed Epstein

 

[Big Fin]

....... Mayonaise Killed Epstein

Fact. Wait until the final investigation report is issued. Cause of death - Mayo

Let me rethink...nope still a hard umh uh...
I agree wth this guy in comments, that even with seasoning the taste goes downhill

"You can put enough seasoning and pucky on a pile of Wolf scat and make it taste descent."

I was wondering when you would get to this! Very nice. I would try it, but don't see any future wolf meat headed my direction. I'll wait for the coyote results, though I may have to cook it outside when the wife finds out what I have!

WTH is pucky????

Yeah I'd like to hear how that works out for you! The wife thing not the eating coyote part. I imagine the wife equation will be even more interesting than the coyote cooking and eating part. I urge caution.........................That might be the last time your lips touch hers!

This is great. Meat is meat and waste is waste, good on you for trying it. Perhaps brining and braising low and slow would help keep the moisture in?

 

[MarvB]

Hmmmmm.... methinks I'll just be taking your word on this one Randy...

 

[Dave N]

WTF his pucky????

Yeah, she's a dog lover so it may be a no-go from the start. She's fine with me killing them during deer season, but I've never brought one home. Maybe if Randy gets good results I can show her and give it a try. I'm thinking low and slow in the smoker breaking it down like brisket with a good rub and wrapped with a little apple juice for the finishing cook time once it's smoked for a few hours.

 

[Jbotto]

WTH is pucky????

Pucky Sammiches

Just cuz Randy does not like pucky and just because he don't want to allow it in HIS coolers, that happens to be one of my favorite sammiches, pucky sammiches. Sometimes I even throw a bit of meat and cheese into the sammich with some ketchup and relish. Gotta have that pucky around when I am...

I took a look at my dog this morning... Rump roast? Not a chance!

More power to you, Randy and crew. Please make it sound great! Maybe we get a few more knocked down.
