This is kind of a fun story. Last week as I was leaving our local contractor supply I overheard a customer asking about bituthene window wrap. He was installing a 4/0 4/0 window and wondered if he had to buy a whole roll. The clerk said yes, he did. I was at the door when I heard that and turned back to the counter where I asked the fellow if he could wait for 5 minutes or so and I'd run home and grab a partial roll I had in the barn and that he could use as much of it as he needed. He said he'd wait and I headed to the barn, as they say.
I got back to the store and gave him the roll of window wrap and asked only that he return what he didn't use back to the store and I'd get it later. He was very appreciative, as anyone would be, and I said it's just nice to help a neighbor.
So I stop in to pick up some trim wood today and Mary, the counter sales lady, hands me back the unused roll of window wrap as well as 2lbs of frozen elk burger and a package of frozen elk brats! Score!!! I doubt he used $10 bucks worth of wrap so I most definitely got the better end of that deal!
With that, I've never cooked elk burger before and I'd like to hear from any of y'all who have and what is your favorite method or recipe. I'm sure it would be great in chili or some such thing, but I'd like to experience the burger as the main ingredient. I don't know the fat content, but are there some things I need to do to keep from drying it out when cooking? I know venison burger can turn to cardboard if you're not careful and I don't want to mess this up. Lemmeknow what y'all think. Thanks!
