Venison?

In your opinion, how nutritious is venison (deer meat)? In my experience, I have found it quite a bit more lean than beef and very high in protein, all good things. Not particularly high in calories either. However, I am by no means a nutrition expert. What are your thoughts?

I think besides cholesterol it is very good for you. I have a fabulous venison stir fry recipe. If interested PM me!0

It is definitely more lean than regular beef (depending on the cut).
A 4oz serving of venison has roughly 180 calories and 3.6g of fat, whereas 4oz of filet mignon has 200 cals and 7.4g of fat.

Beef vs. Venison
Venison is the best choice!0 -
It's very lean for red meat. If you don't like the game taste soak it overnight in milk and juniper berries if you have them.
Always inspect the liver of any wild game you kill. Should be spot free.0 -
Good stuff, higher in Omega 3's than beef!

Very lean and good for ya! I love my dear meat. My boyfriend and I are avid hunters, along with all the men in his family so we eat it a good bit!0

It is awesome. Eat it regularly, though only a few packages left in the freezer now. Can't wait for fall to hit so I can stock up again.
Far as nutrition, not sure how it is supposedly high in cholesterol? Weird. It is super lean and low cal. Very good for you.0 -
It is very lean and very tasty too. Venison stew sounds delicious right now.0

I think it's great. it's lean and easily available to me so I eat it often.0

Have a great bacon-wrapped venison recipe for the grill, if you or anyone wants. It has won over even my dad, who had never deeded venison mastery to anyone or anything else.
(And marinade is key whatever you make. My go-to is apple cider. But butter milk is good. Also good is coke, actually, or mtn dew.)0 -
Venison is super healthy, very lean and clean as it gets with red meat! Every year I get excited around hunting season because I know my freezer will be full for winter!0
