we have learned a lot the past few years about taking the time to remove as much fat and silver skin as possible and grinding the burger twice and adding some pork fat makes it a lot more enjoyable to eat. In fact I make deer steaks for thanksgiving this year and served them before lunch and didn't have anyone complain, everyone commented that they couldn't believe how good it tasted. We marinated them and then froze them and cooked them on the grill and they were awesome. Really opened my eyes to new things to try with deer meat!
