Miranda Kerr broke down her "day on a plate" on Kristen Cavallari's podcast, and it is unhinged... venison, bison, caviar (no parasites, apparently), but absolutely no eggs, kale or sourdough. We can't stop thinking about it.Phoebe Bridgers' new album has a lyric that sounds suspiciously like a dig at Gracie Abrams, and once you add Paul Mescal and some very specific glow-in-the-dark bed sheets into the mix, this "feud" gets a lot messier.

As summer draws to a close, many of us face the annual task of managing our freezers, especially if you have a stockpile of venison from last hunting season. If you're wondering how to use that venison and make room for new stock, you're in the right place. In this post, I'll share five practical methods to utilize your venison effectively, helping you clear out your freezer while enjoying delicious meals. ## Why Use Your Venison? Utilizing your venison is not just about clearing space; it's about making the most of the hard work you put into hunting and processing your meat. Here are a few reasons to prioritize using your venison: - **Quality Control**: Freshly used venison ensures that you maintain the flavor and quality of your meat. - **Space Management**: Freezer space is valuable, and clearing out older stock can prevent you from losing good meat due to power outages or freezer malfunctions. - **Creative Cooking**: Using venison can inspire new recipes and cooking techniques, broadening your culinary skills. ## 1. Grind Your Venison for Burger One of the best and easiest ways to use your venison is to grind it into burger meat. This is a fantastic way to make use of various cuts that might not be as desirable as steaks or roasts. Here's how to do it: - **Why This Matters**: Ground venison is versatile and can be used in countless recipes from burgers to meatballs. - **How to Do It**: Pull out your grinder and process 5-10 pounds of venison at a time. This smaller batch allows for easier handling and quicker cooking. - **Example**: If you have a few cuts that you know you won't use soon, grind those up and mix them into your burger stash. - **Common Mistake**: Many people try to grind too much at once, which can be overwhelming. Stick to smaller batches for better results. ## 2. Make Shredded Venison Another excellent method for using up venison is to prepare shredded meat. This can be done using a pressure cooker or slow cooker, making it easy and convenient. - **Why This Matters**: Shredded venison can be used in a variety of dishes, from tacos to sandwiches, and it can be frozen in portions for later use. - **How to Do It**: Fill your slow cooker or pressure cooker with chunks of venison, some broth, and your favorite spices. Cook until tender, then shred with forks. - **Example**: Use your Instapot to efficiently prepare shanks or other tougher cuts of meat. - **Common Mistake**: Don't skip the seasoning! Properly seasoning your meat while cooking will enhance the flavor. ## 3. Create Venison Stews Stews are a comforting way to use venison, especially as the weather cools down. They allow you to combine your venison with vegetables, making a hearty meal. - **Why This Matters**: Stews not only utilize your meat but also allow you to incorporate seasonal vegetables that may be on hand. - **How to Do It**: Cut your venison into chunks, brown it, and then combine it with broth, herbs, and vegetables in a slow cooker. - **Example**: Try adding potatoes, carrots, and onions for a classic venison stew. - **Common Mistake**: Avoid overcrowding the pot; this can lead to uneven cooking. ## 4. Venison Jerky If you're looking for a long-lasting way to preserve your venison, making jerky is a fantastic option. This not only helps use up meat but also provides a great snack. - **Why This Matters**: Jerky is portable, making it perfect for hikes and road trips. - **How to Do It**: Slice your venison thin, marinate it with your favorite spices, and then use a dehydrator or oven to dry it out. - **Example**: Experiment with different marinades, such as teriyaki or spicy pepper, to create unique flavors. - **Common Mistake**: Make sure to slice the meat against the grain for more tender jerky. ## 5. Venison Sausage Making sausage is another excellent way to utilize your venison and can be a fun project for those who enjoy cooking. - **Why This Matters**: Sausage can be flavored in many ways and can incorporate other meats if you want to stretch your venison. - **How to Do It**: Combine ground venison with spices and casings or use it loose in your recipes. - **Example**: Try a breakfast sausage mix or a spicy Italian sausage blend. - **Common Mistake**: Don't forget to add fat! Venison is lean, and adding some pork fat will enhance the flavor and texture. ## Conclusion Using up your venison before the new hunting season is essential for maintaining a well-stocked freezer and enjoying the fruits of your labor. Whether you choose to grind, shred, stew, make jerky, or whip up some sausage, these methods will not only help clear space but will also allow you to savor the delicious flavors of your hard-earned meat. So, what are you waiting for? Roll up your sleeves, get creative in the kitchen, and make the most of your venison! Frequently Asked Questions **How long can I keep venison in the freezer?** Venison can typically be stored in the freezer for 6 to 12 months if properly packaged. To maintain the best quality, use airtight containers or vacuum-sealed bags. **What's the best way to thaw venison?** The best way to thaw venison is in the refrigerator, allowing it to slowly come to temperature. This method helps to preserve the meat's quality. **Can I use venison in any recipe that calls for beef?** Yes! Venison can be used in most recipes that call for beef, though you may need to adjust the cooking times due to its lean nature.

If you are an agriculture producer in Hawaii, you have heard about feral ungulates. Those are the pigs, goats, and deer that run wild on the islands and can do such extensive damage to crops and the land. Many are frustrated by their impact and spend thousands of dollars to keep them out or even more to recover from the damage they do. When on Oahu, we discovered Iggy from Makana Provisions, who is trying to address this invasive animal problem by hunting them, processing them, and then selling them to feed the islands and beyond.Brought to you by University of Hawaii College of Tropical Ag. and Human Resilience (CTAHR), and the Seeds of Well-being (SOW) Project.

Beau Martonik sits down with Allie D'Andrea (Outdoors Allie) and Nick Berger for the first time in four years. A big chunk of this one is wild game cooking. Allie ran a head-to-head venison burger experiment comparing pure venison, pork shoulder, bacon, butter, mayo, and egg. Pork shoulder at 80/20 won. Mayo was last. She also covers how to handle bear meat, how to render bear fat, where to source fat at the grocery store, and what to do with the turkey that's been sitting in your freezer since last fall. Beyond the cooking, they get into bear hunting in Pennsylvania and the weight that comes with it, the honest math on guide hunts vs. DIY, why Florida outdoorsmen are underrated, deer camp culture, and fall plans including a Wyoming elk tag. Allie is the author of The Butcher's Table cookbook, available on Amazon.

Rural households struggling to pay for heating oil are to receive government help with their bills. The war in the Middle East has had a massive impact on global supplies of oil, gas and fertiliser - pushing up prices. The Prime Minister has pledged to help people who have seen their bills soar: energy prices will be capped until the end of June; the cut in fuel duty has been extended until September; and the government's allocated £53 million to help vulnerable rural households with their heating oil bills. We speak to the Rural Services Network which welcomes the support, but says a long term strategy's needed to reflect the extra costs of living and working in the countryside.New laws to protect livestock from dog attacks are coming into force. It's the first time the law around livestock-worrying has changed since it was introduced more than 70 years ago The government says livestock numbers have doubled since then, and more people are visiting the countryside with their dogs. The changes include new powers for police; the use of DNA testing to identify dogs which attack; and dog owners can now be ordered to pay for the cost of seizing and detaining their dog. There'll also be scope to issue an unlimited fine - previously the maximum penalty was one thousand pounds. We speak to a dairy farmer from Cheshire whose livestock have been attacked about the difference the new laws will make.All week we're looking at food processing. We visit one of Scotland's biggest venison processors to hear how the raw product is delivered to them and how they deal with wildly fluctuating supplies.

Can holistic grazing systems restore degraded hillsides and create profitable farms? How can local food systems and venison products revitalise struggling rural communities? Is it possible to farm with nature rather than against it and still make a living? These are the questions we explore in our conversation with John Duffy from Future Oak Farm, who returned to County Donegal after a career in oil and gas to transform his family's traditional sheep farm into a model of regenerative agriculture.John left Donegal at 17 because he couldn't see a future in traditional farming. After 16 years working in civil engineering, mining and oil and gas exploration across Europe, the Middle East and Africa, he returned home following an industry downturn and his father's death. What brought him back wasn't nostalgia but a vision for a different kind of agriculture. Inspired by Allan Savory's holistic management and the predator-prey dynamics he'd seen in David Attenborough documentaries, John began experimenting with bunched livestock grazing that mimics natural herbivore behaviour. The results transformed not just the land but the economic viability of hill farming in one of Ireland's most challenging landscapes.Our conversation covers habitat recovery, woodland regeneration, deer management and the creation of Wild & Co, John's venison product company that's building shorter supply chains and retaining more value in rural communities. We also discuss the fragility of long supply chains, the disconnect in Ireland's food system where 70% of consumed beef is imported despite producing enough to feed ourselves three times over and why John believes the innovation needed for Irish agriculture will come from the challenging farming conditions of the West of Ireland. John offers a practical vision for how farming can support both nature and thriving rural communities.Further reading:Wild & Co | Wild Irish Venison Protein SnacksFuture Oak FarmFuture Oak Farm | InstagramWild & Co | InstagramSubscribe to Tommy's Outdoors: Conservation and Science NewsletterSupport the Podcast and Buy Me a Coffee.Recommended Books: tommysoutdoors.com/booksMerch: tommysoutdoors.com/shopFollow Tommy's Outdoors on Bluesky, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and FacebookThe guest featured in this episode paid a nominal guesting fee.

It's the best week of the year for our two dogs when I'm breaking down quarters of venison in the kitchen. It's good for their keepers, too, for as with many prairie households, venison becomes our primary protein in winter. We have a great variety of venison dishes, some of which are time-consuming, but when we want something quick and simple, with ties to the traditional culinary culture of the region, there's an easy answer: chislic.

Please enjoy a great conversation and in-person show here in the Sacramento studios of the B.rad podcast with my good friend and sprinting mentor Cynthia Monteleone, coming to you all the way from the beautiful Big Island of Hawaii. We had a long, wide-ranging discussion on health, fitness, peak performance, and longevity—especially in Cynthia’s area of expertise, acting as a truth seeker and naysayer in the health and fitness scene. She isn’t afraid to speak straight, challenge prevailing opinions, and back it up with deep research and her experience working with elite athletes. We talk about the popular idea that preserving muscle mass is the key to longevity, why that insight is incomplete, and why muscle power, explosiveness, and strength are the real drivers of healthy aging. Cynthia also explains why jogging can actually make you slower and age faster—while walking does not—and why tired training backfires, along with the idea that recovery is just as much about the brain as it is about the muscles. As a Team USA world-champion sprinter and coach to Olympic and world-champion Masters-level athletes, Cynthia shares her thoughts on sprinting as an anti-aging strategy, creatine and why it’s not for everyone, diet—including dairy—and we even have some fun breaking down Dr. Rhonda Patrick’s viral green smoothie and the potential downside of consuming large amounts of plant toxins. She also talks about how she trains everyday people the same way she trains elite athletes, and why we should all think of ourselves that way. Cynthia has been a huge source of inspiration and reason for me over the years, and I really appreciate her willingness to think deeply, challenge trends, and always speak honestly about what actually works. A Team USA world-champion sprinter, Cynthia Monteleone is a highly trained metabolic health analytics practitioner who coaches numerous Olympic athletes and world-champion Masters-level athletes. She goes deep into the nuances of what delivers peak performance and helps people overcome health challenges to reach personal goals, especially weight loss and excelling in athletic goals. You can follow her at @FastOVER40 on Instagram and learn more at mamstrong808.com. Cynthia also has a healthy, natural skincare line: Earthen Hawaii. TIMESTAMPS: We talk about the difference between just holding on to muscle mass and maintaining muscle power. [02:24] After being a college athlete, Cynthia married and had children. When her 11-year-old showed interest, she went back to the track. [06:52] There are many people who aren't reaching their genetic potential. [13:04] Walking versus jogging: when you are jogging you are preserving slow twitch muscle fibers. [19:43] The power matters more than the muscle size. [26:18] When you do slow eccentrics (lowering the weight during the bicep curl), you are recruiting more muscle fibers. [29:48] Unless you are doing the Olympic Lifts in perfect form, the injury risks outweigh the benefits. [34:11] If you're an advanced sprinter, and you're training by doing hills and doing sled pushes, it's important at some point closer to your season to follow that resistance with flat work that's fast. [36:59] People often overdo jogging. It can be detrimental to your health. [40:03] It's good to do a dynamic cool-down. Little drills, like instead of jogging, you duck walks or toe walks. All manner of static stretching is ill-advised. [42:02] It takes years for medical textbooks and journals to be updated to current findings. [46:12] Cynthia is a metabolic practitioner. She works with elite athletes as certified strength coach, encouraging diet and supplements. [50:58] What is wrong with the basic dietary notions we've been taught to believe are healthy? [53:02] Earthen Hawaii produces healthful skincare products rather than chemically laden things. [53:41] When working with a client's diet what Cynthia does is specifically pinpoint to that individual what they need most of and what is holding them back? [57:48] She teaches her clients to eat for neurotransmitters. [01:02:33] What about fasting? A workout of an hour gives a similar autophagy effect to fasting for 48 hours. [01:09:12] AI and algorithms are causing a problem with misinformation. Be careful. [01:17:20] The best athletes are always open to hearing all the information they can use for their competitive lifestyle. [01:21:35] Every supplement is not right for everyone. [01:25:06] What other foods and what other dietary patterns come up that you would suggest some experimentation and some trial and error if I'm trying to optimize my diet all the way? [01:28:22] There's a huge disparity in the quality and purity of whey protein. [01:32:21] Venison is highly nutritious. [ 01:35:11] Limiting grains is the key. [01:38:26] The type of exercise we do affects what kind of gut bacteria we produce. [01:40:05] Sugar can affect the hormones. [01:44:56] What is the difference between muscles and brain recovery?

Did you know that hunters can donate venison to local food banks? Protein is the most sought-after yet least donated food source at local food shelves. Ethan Neal, avid hunter and director at Second Harvest Heartland, shares how the Minnesota Hunter-Harvested Venison donation program works and how you can help make a difference. Presented by Kinetico (kineticoMN.com/), Star Bank (star.bank/), North Dakota Tourism (helloND.com/), Pleasureland RV (pleasurelandrv.com/), MN DNR (dnr.state.mn.us/cwd/index.html), Ebels Voyageur Houseboats (ebels.com/), & Sitka Gear (sitkagear.com/)
New York State has a program where hunters can donate their deer meat to food programs to feed New Yorkers. Donations of venison have been a great assistace to food panties. In this segment we hear from Feeding New York State and some excerpts from the Department of Environmental Conservation. Reporting by Sina Basila Hickey.

Venison is arguably the perfect protein. It's lean, it's clean, readily available, and versatile. On this episode we talk about the standard ways to cook it, the fancy ways, and give you an inside look into a deer processor operation. Families today are more particular than ever about where their food comes from, this alone has led some people to take up hunting. We feel like you should not overlook the value and quality of a good venison meal.
In this grand saga of collective oversharing, we heroically wander through the conversational wilderness, armed only with nostalgia and questionable transitions. We reminisce about our glory days of rehearsal (which helped no one), recount our noble battles with Southern snow (mostly fought from the comfort of our driveways), and debate the ethics of eating deer while pretending we’re food critics. One minute we’re comparing duck blinds, the next we’re knee-deep in pajama theory, wondering how humanity ever survived the drop-seat era. We take bold detours into hygiene history, because nothing says entertainment like the evolution of soap. Our laughter veers between the profound and the slightly concerning, and by the end, we’ve somehow tied together sledding, venison, and bathroom humor into one frostbitten tapestry of self-discovery. It’s less a podcast, more a group therapy session for people who own too many flannel shirts.

What's up, y'all — in this episode, Greg and I kick things off with some good ol' Saturday morning nostalgia: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, DuckTales, cereal boxes, and childhood memories. Then we shift gears into what's happening around the compound and what's coming down the pipeline.It's been “spring cleaning in the fall” season here at Keto Brick HQ — clearing out, organizing, and getting ready for a strong close to the year. We've got two new Brick flavors dropping before year's end (one brand new, one long-awaited favorite making its comeback), and we couldn't be more excited to share those.We're also gearing up for Hack Your Health in Tampa — I'll be speaking on the food addiction panel, and we're planning to link up with some old friends and maybe even get a lift in while we're there. In the meantime, I've got deer camp this weekend to fill the freezer and new feeder pigs arriving soon for the homestead. Never a dull moment.We spend some time talking about the pushback from vegans on social media lately — and I make it clear where I stand: I'm all about regenerative agriculture, raising animals ethically, and honoring the life that feeds us. I don't advocate for factory farming — I advocate for stewardship, self-sufficiency, and doing things the right way.From there, Greg and I dive into business and training updates. We're ramping up Keto Bodybuilding content and marketing, relaunching Live Savage Apparel with a totally new look, planning next year's retreats (including an entrepreneurial one), and I'm finally recording the audiobook version of my book for Audible.On the fitness front, we're running a new training split that's absolutely brutal in the best way — heavy squats, hip thrusts, lunges, and hypertrophy work. I'm hitting lifetime PRs and feeling strong. We're tweaking the workout app to make tracking smoother, scheduling bloodwork and Dexa scans, and already thinking ahead to prep in 2027.We talk a lot about order and alignment — getting the environment clean, systems dialed in, and priorities locked before the next phase of growth. Whether it's the gym, business, or homestead, everything runs smoother when you take the time to clear out the clutter and tighten things up.I also get personal toward the end — sharing some thoughts on parenting Rigel and figuring out how to discipline without breaking his spirit. There's no manual for this stuff, but I'm learning that patience, consistency, and presence go a long way.We close things out with plans for deer camp, hiking, and a reminder to embrace the building phase — in training, in business, and in life.Main Takeaways:Two new Keto Brick flavors on the wayHack Your Health prep + travel plansLive Savage Apparel relaunch incomingRegenerative agriculture > factory farmingHitting new PRs and refining the workout app2026: Build the systems — 2027: Go all in on prepStay organized, stay disciplined, stay resoluteIn short: this episode is all about resolve — cleaning house, sharpening focus, and putting everything in order to grow stronger in every area of life.Greg Mahler is also a lifetime natural bodybuilder, and can be followed on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/ketogreg80/Register For My FREE Masterclass: https://www.ketobodybuilding.com/registration-2Get Keto Brick: https://www.ketobrick.com/Subscribe to the podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/42cjJssghqD01bdWBxRYEg?si=1XYKmPXmR4eKw2O9gGCEuQ
In this episode of West Virginia Outdoors, Chris Lawrence spotlights the growing importance of Hunters Helping the Hungry, a program connecting West Virginia's hunters with families in need during the government's SNAP benefit shutdown. Chris speaks with Glenn Adrian, coordinator of the Governor's One Shot Hunt, which raised over $1 million in 19 years and delivered more than 3,200 venison meals this season alone. Then, Alicia Bossi of the Mountaineer Food Bank explains how deer donations are processed into thousands of protein-packed meals for West Virginians. The show closes with a Raleigh County hunter's five-year pursuit of a trophy buck and a salute to Morgantown's urban hunters for their remarkable 15,000-pound contribution

In this episode, Nick Otto discusses five essential steps to ensure the best quality venison after a successful hunt. He emphasizes the importance of shot placement, quick recovery, thorough field dressing, proper cleaning and chilling, and effective packing and freezing methods. Each step is crucial for maintaining the quality of the meat and ensuring a successful outcome from the hunt. The hardest part of hunting is often getting on the animal, as it requires patience, skill, and understanding of wildlife behavior. Once the opportunity arises, shot placement becomes crucial for ensuring a quick, ethical dispatch and maintaining the quality of the meat. After the shot, a fast recovery is vital to prevent loss of meat quality. Thorough field dressing helps remove heat and bacteria, while promptly chilling the meat is essential for preserving its freshness. Proper cleaning during processing prevents contamination and spoilage, and careful packing and freezing help avoid freezer burn. Using a vacuum sealer can further maintain meat quality over time. Throughout the entire process, working in a clean environment and keeping knives sharp are key to efficient and effective butchering.

This week we are joined by Dr. Natasha Neary. She is a mathematical biologist and was a post-doctoral researcher who analyzed the data for many of the wildlife, fisheries, and aquaculture research projects at Mississippi State University. She has a unique background and story for someone engaged in wildlife management research. She arrived in Starkville from England as a vegetarian/non-hunter, and her time around the MSU crew has led her to change her thoughts of hunting and eating wild meat. She tells her story and asks us some questions that form an interesting discussion with a unique perspective of someone who didn't grow up in a hunting culture. Natasha is currently Chief of Conservation Analytics at Wildlife Investments. Listen, Learn and Enjoy.Send a text message to the show!
