    The ground meat had a little fat in it. I was surprised how well it stuck together. Not overly gamey in flavor. I've also heard the speed of the kill does matter. The adrenaline does something to the meat.

    Proper dressing is important as well. What do you think all the stomach acid would do to the meat if it was nicked open by accident? Same goes with piss and shit from the intestines and bladder. It probably wouldn't make the meat taste very pleasant. Have you ever tasted a kidney?

    I use Schlenkerla Marzen every time I make a pot of chili. Get as much in as you can :slight_smile: Soak the meat in it a while, add it to the pot, I even rehydrate the toasted dried chiles in it. The flavor still mostly cooks out but you do get a nice subtle smokiness in there.
