The meat from deer is a low fat red meat that is very versatile in cooking and full of flavour. As well as being lower in saturated fat than other red meats, venison is higher in polyunsaturated fats, with good polyunsaturated to saturated (P:S) and omega n-3 to omega n-6 ratios. This is largely because deer feed on grass and vegetation rather than high-energy cereals.
Flavours that work well with Venison are Juniper, redcurrant, red wine, garlic, rosemary, port, rowan jelly.
All our venison is wild and is purchased from estates throughout Cumbria and North Lancs.
