A friend offered me some ground elk meat. How could I say no? So tonight, elk tacos are on the menu! I diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, shredded some real cheese, and got out some taco sauce and my cheese alternative.
The Mother Thing is out of town, so I volunteered to make dinner for me and my dad. He browned the meat in advance, and then I reheated it and added taco seasoning.
It still tastes different from domesticated critters. I haven't tried it unseasoned, so I don't know how gamey it would taste otherwise. It's just a bit different from the usual taco fare. The meat is darker and leaner than beef. I suspect the texture would be improved if it were blended with ground pork. But tough meat is not bad when ground up and seasoned vigorously.
Alas, I blinked, and my avocado suddenly went over-ripe. Life is cruel, and the fickle avocado is proof.
I've never eaten elk that tasted gamey. Elk is my very favorite meat.

Damn them to hell! At least, once they're over-ripe.

It's easier to find bison in stores. Commercial bison ranching is a thing. Elk is generally only available if you hunt it yourself or know someone who hunts.
