A nice roasted duck gets my mouth leaking like an old galvanized pipe that you didn’t realize was rotting from the inside out
There are other meats?
Elk is fantastic. Elk chops with a sweet demiglas is chefs kiss
Long pork /s
Moose can be pretty good, but I think I would have to say Turkey
Ostrich. Easily the best game meat. It’s incredible.
Duck is amazing, either Chinese style (Peking Duck) or French style (Canard à l’orange)
I have had delicious roasted duck with wild blackberry sauce that was also delicious. To answer OP, that, venison, quail have been mentioned here and are delicious. I’m also fond of tiramisu and coffee.
The salmon seasons on the US West coast have been essentially non-existent for a couple of years. The Abalone season has been suspended for over 5 years. Both of those meats are absolutely amazing, especially when you prepare and eat them the day you caught them. I miss those two the most.
Stingray
I’ll eat one them mufuggas for my boy Steve
Rattle snake is pretty good from what I can remember. Like chicken, but… different
Stringy, sinewy, tough, but good at absorbing whatever sauce you put on it
Got to thinking, it’s kinda like shrimp, but taste kinda like chicken. It’s been like 15 years.
I must have gotten some dehydrated roadkill snake jerky when I tried it
Mine was from one my dad killed in our yard. We then cooked it over bonfire that evening.
That’s badass
Bacon
Horse! It’s actually probably just my favourite meat in general even including the others
I imagine horse is a lot like beef as Tesco got away with using horse meat in ready meals for who knows how long.
Hah that one was funny :3
It definitely tastes distinctly different… or at least from what I had, I assume tesco meals don’t taste much of anything in general tho
Generic salty brown mush haha. But seriously I’ve never had it so am intrigued.
It’s a very lean smooth meat… it’s like… not as gamey as something as beef, but still with that distinct red meat taste. It’s rather interesting :3
Then I shall keep my eyes open for it and surprise the family one day.
Im not even sure what places sell it tbh :3… I know some countries eat it regularly, but every time I had it was cause I live in the middle of nowhere and a farmer gave me some
beyond beef 😝
Tofu
That’s not meat.
It’s okay if you don’t eat meat, and it’s okay to just say that; I’m just more annoyed at the whole trend of “meat substitutes” when you can just… not eat meat.
Tofu is an awesome ingredient, used in an incredible variety of dishes. To reduce it to something it isn’t trying to be is such a waste of a good ingredient.
I eat meat and I eat tofu. It’s great having a revolving list of protein to choose from.
There’s nothing wrong with meat substitutes. Vegans don’t take issue with the taste and textures of foods, we take issue with where those foods come from and how they’re acquired. Mock meats are a great way to help people ease their transition into a better lifestyle until get more accustomed to more plant-forward meals, as well as being a panacea for people who have food sensitivity issues.
I know all the ways tofu can be used. But it is a great meat substitute as well and what is wrong with that? I don’t understand the hate against meat substitutes. Especially when it’s not one of those ultra processed foods, which tofu clearly isn’t.
Yes there are A LOT of great meals without any meat-like ingredients but sometimes it’s just a nice addition. I like to make vegan Paella with smoked tofu cubes for example or bolognese with crumbled tofu. It’s all a substitute.
Venison is great.
Salmon. It might actually be my favourite overall. Delicious.
