Sitka Venison may very well be my new favorite game meat. A friend offered to let me come to her house and cook with it and I jumped at the chance. It’s richer than mule deer with a wonderful texture. This flank steak practically melted in my mouth. The chimichurri added a little zing making it one of my all time favorite meals.
