I like it just like that but a lot of people here eat it slathered in butter. <BR/><BR/>Um, if you really don't like it you can always mail it to me...Clarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13941161274230227274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6515515.post-66924577788380856742008-01-13T12:08:00.000-05:002008-01-13T12:08:00.000-05:00Thanks for the comments everyone.

I think I will take it outside this afternoon and feed it to the local dogs that run around here. It will be a good treat for them.Rob, Tina and the boyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08840954020421165800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6515515.post-3608016178993707402008-01-13T11:33:00.000-05:002008-01-13T11:33:00.000-05:00You could try making a pemmican with it, by mincin...You could try making a pemmican with it, by mincing it and reducing it with dried berries and fruit and honey and fat/drippings. It'd make a real good trail food that way.Kate Novahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02922631587427699587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6515515.post-13449358262356213632008-01-13T11:09:00.000-05:002008-01-13T11:09:00.000-05:00I wish I had a caribou source- envious.

When people ask me how it tastes I say it tastes like a combination of roast beef and liver. 70% roast beef and 30% liver. Great in a stir fry. I agree you should try it in a stew- if you can rehydrate it at all. Got a slow cooker?<BR/>lissaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6515515.post-80465447235033088552008-01-13T09:02:00.000-05:002008-01-13T09:02:00.000-05:00I disagree, this city girl didn't need any aquired...I disagree, this city girl didn't need any aquired taste buds.<BR/>Caribou has a nice flavour, it's not all weird tasting like deer. The Jerky you got might not have been spiced nicely (or at all) or made like other yummy jerkies we are used to down south. Don't give up on caribou though, if you get some raw caribou, cook it in a stew, or like a roast. You will like it better if cooked the way you are used to meats cooked. <BR/><BR/> If I had it I would give it to Tallinn. My suggestion is share it with a pet you know, or give it to the ravens. :)jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07870234938205295011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6515515.post-14545097482408396542008-01-12T22:00:00.000-05:002008-01-12T22:00:00.000-05:00Its probably not the jerky that you dont like but ...Its probably not the jerky that you dont like but the caraboo.
