Venison meat as main source of meat; too lean?
Venison meat as main source of meat; too lean?

Geezy replied to Nemo's topic in Carnivore, Ketovore, Keto, & Low-Carb Support

As a hunter who eats a lot of venison throughout the year I can tell you that it is definitely too lean. Now when we speak of our ancestors eating what they killed we must remember that they ate the whole animal not just the muscle meat. They ate almost all of the internal organs including the diet fat around the kidneys. They also ate many parts that are mostly fat such as the brains and the bone marrow. So unless you are killing your own game you are not getting what they ate. I do eat some of the organs from my kills but I don’t go to the same extent that our ancestors did. When I eat venison, Wild game or any lean meats I make sure to cook it in animal fats and eat it with plenty of butter.

No hunter in his right mind ever addd up the cost per pound of meat. Ignorance is bliss in this regard. I just love to hunt and it’s my therapy. My success is not counted in how much game I take but how much satisfaction and enjoyment I get out of it. I love living off the land as much as possible. I dropped my deer lease this year because I bought a big enough place that I can now hunt my own land so there will be a savings there especially if I process my own meat. But yeah, game meat is the most expensive food there is.

Welcome Diane. If you want a better response it would be a good idea if you would post this under its own question in the Introduction thread.

Hi All, I have just started Carnivore. I do feel tired, but I am sure that will pass. I cheated twice this week because I think my blood sugar is going very low as I am not managing my eating well yet. I think I eat too little since I have never been a big eater. Any suggestions.

Yep. When others hunt here they do the same. It is a doubly win for me. We get some meat that does not cost much more than the time and the packaging paper. The second thing is the dogs get all kinds of guts and bones and goodies. I sort of eat free meat (but then someone has to pay taxes on the land whether the deer choose to live there or not, LOL) and I don't have to spend money feeding the dogs for a day or two. The deeper we dive I think the costs are somewhat the same across the board which places even more "value" on knowing where and how your food originates. Since I don't really hunt anymore but have a bunch of friends who do, I get leftovers/scraps for the dogs throughout much of the winter. It is good for them and if I do a deep dive it saves me some money and if I dive deeper, I can use those savings to buy the rib eye vs. the chuck steak and money wise it is all the same. LOL Scott
