96. Moose tongue

Fri Nov 22, 2024, 02:06 PM

Nov 22

I grew up with alot of wild game in rural Alaska. Seal liver and heart, pickled seal flipper (kind of like pickled pigs feet), beaver tail, raindeer, caribou, moose, and mountain goat as well as a variety of fish.

I liked the goat meat, tender, fatty, with loads of flavor. The moose tongue was too chewy.
