Muskox is awesome man! Don't know what happened with your experience, but don't let it stop you from trying it again. Muskox stew is the best stew you will ever eat in my opinion.

Bum guts at Ft. Liard was disgusting as well as disturbing, incubated duck eggs and Spruce hen are over-rated to I think...

If it's what I thinkin', it's salt beef, spuds, carrots, cabbage and turnip all cooked up together. Just make sure you soak the salt beef for about 24 hours and change the water 3 or 4 times before cooking.

Goose had to be the worst. Shot, cooked and ate for the first time this past fall. Would rather chew on the toilet seat in the outhouse than eat that again.

Yup, pretty much bang on. I'm guessing the reason some don't like it is because they got a real fatty piece of meat. I trim off all the fat before serving.

I remember buying salt beef a number of years ago. No fat or bone, just solid meat. Haven't seen it like that in a long time. I'd like to try salting some deer or bison.

I just can't deal with all the salt. Changing the water a couple of times might do the trick though. The veggies were really good....plus I have way too much fun with cabbage to pass it up

If the meat is soaked properly, you would never know there was salt in it... delicious!

now that you mention jigg's dinner, when I was in NFL last year, my aunt made Fish & Brewis. . .boiled codfish and a specific type of hard bread, luckily my aunt didn't render down the pork fat and pour it over top . . .I don't trust grey food. . .I don't care for the soggy bread either, pretty near the look, taste and smell of a soggy jock sock! !!!!!

You guys gotta stop, your killin' me. Fish and Brewis, boiled salt cod, boiled potatoes, Purity Hard Bread soaked overnight, then fried bits of lard "scrunchins" on top. I can almost hear my arteries hardening right now but DAMN is it good.

Coots are the worst. You may as well fry up some of the slough bottom.
