Looks fantastic, but that’s just enough to get me hungry!
That smell of that roast cooking,, just going through your house is enough to put you down for the count.. nothing better. I’ve only had moose 3 times. and Elk 2 times.I have a small piece of the roast yet . I'll have that at lunch today , in a sandwich .
I like potatoes and carrots cooked this way . I put them around any roast , and meatloaf too , but cook meatloaf in the oven .
the house smells great regardless of the type of meat .
I think moose is the best I've ate in wild game . my Caribou has been gone for a long time , but I remember thinking it was hard to say what was better between caribou and elk . my Dad thought caribou was the best , he loved it .
I tend to steer towards the Caribou myself but the more I think of the meals I once had of moose and Elk. I’d have to lean towards the Moose myself..
I've only hunted them one time . this was back when a hunter could take 2 . not sure when the rut is up there , this was a end of August hunt , I got home on labor day . this is the only caribou meat I've ate . I remember the guide saying you have to get the meat off quick , because in about an hour it will start to push the stomach contents out it's mouth and that does hurt the taste . not sure if that's true about the taste , but he / we worked like crazy getting the meat off . I did see the stomach contents being push out of one I got my partner on . I wasn't nearly as fast as my guide was .
As I recall it was later September into October. End of August you were obviously fine and yes bou is good eating. May have been dad’s work schedule but I don’t remember hunting them much early. Even recall when I was real young dad not shooting caribou when we were moose hunting. We did most of our hunting late after freeze up.
