What is jerky but dried raw meat. When I first made jerky I air dried it. Dehydrators were not in vogue them days and instructions for using a oven were not common knowledge either they recommended air drying. Seems to me i must have read that in an old outdoor life when I was a kid.[/quote]

Dang you must be older than me. Are you sure you are still alive?

Well I am slowing down a mite

Must go against the grain on this one too, sorry. Can't stand the sight of blood on my plate. Too each his own and all my friends love raw, I mean rare steak, but they know to flip mine one more time. Only thing I like raw is oysters doused in Louisiana hot sauce, but there is serious risk involved so rarely indulge in raw oysters anymore.

Raw store hamburger - don't do it. My wife used to work in a lab where they tested food. You know the labels that say the fat content and stuff. Also tested for biological contamination. Don't go the raw beef hamburger route if you know what's good. Well maybe if you drink a bunch of whiskey it will kill the organisms.

Raw deer meat? I like mine fried or one of the other ways my wife cooks it.

I'm with ya on this one all the way- Only cooked and well done for this here boy!

Well, I have not nor do I want to, I have eaten Steak Tare Tare a few times. I cook my venison. And never cook it past medium rare. I like it rare, I also tend to age my venison a few days to a couple of weeks. It depends if I have access to a walk in Cooler or not at the given time most years its yea, some years no. I tend to go on a venison jag when I have one in the freezer, I just make meals and eat till its gone. I take two to four a year, so most years I run out of venison about a week before my season starts. I tell all my friends that do not throw away bacon renderings, here is a can, and once a week I will pick it up. Black Iron skillet and bacon renderings = a very tasty meal. Goes double for duck fat.
