I grew up eating Elk in europe, my father would usually sear it thin, slice it; and serve it in a red wine reduction sauce with shallots. As you found out, sometimes it's as clean as beef with a hint of liver, sometimes it can be gamey... A thick red wine reduction sauce does a great job of cutting out gameness without masking the red meat flavour you want. That's the problem with game meat, sometimes you get a young buck just entering adulthood; but also you might get an old goat whose well past his prime. Beef is slaughtered at the consistently best time frames.

My wife complains about how expensive it get but the second I tell her it is done resting she shoves me out of the way like the runt pig of the litter. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Lifelong hunter here, remember that Cervid (deer, elk, moose, etc.) have a distinct smell and taste based on where they are raised and what they eat. The same can be said about cattle but eating a cervid that ate mostly corn will taste drastically different than one that ate mostly forest acorns and fern. Also that flavor is much more potent in specific fats inside the muscles too so there are many cuts you do not want to cook with fat on. Instead you use cooking oils to keep it from drying out and sticking. I would love to invite you to hunt elk but getting a license here is a lottery in Michigan. Then when you do get one, you are limited to the day and week you can hunt, and soon as the herd kill limit is hit by all hunters state-wide, you have to stop. You can drop hundreds or thousands of dollars on travel, food, lodging, and more and still go home with nothing completely outside your control.

Pan seared in butter is my preferred method. Like on this video, venison is too lean to maintain juciness from grilling. I like to marinate with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, an oregano/tomato/basil mix and worsch. Use a cast iron pan to make some onions and mushrooms, then cook the steaks to your desired doneness with the basting method. Once your stake are done, throw some more butter in the pan and deglaze pan to use as topping or dipping sauce. No better method in my opinion.

Reason why Elks/Moose has a "liver" taste is because they consume a lot more iron(the mineral) than other cow-like animals. It's the iron rich taste you get which is why Northern Europe likes to pair it with something sweet like lingonberry as the tart sweetness in it just elevates moose a lot.

Lingonberries are the most common, but we also use blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, currants, cranberries, and so on. My aunt once treated me to roasted turkey while we were visiting for Christmas. It was a whole roasted bird served with brown sauce, hot apple sauce, black currant jelly, and Hasselback potatoes.

don't use buttermilk. its not good for lactose intolerant people, its also a waste of a drink that can even substitute food, and lastly it does change the flavor of the meat DRAMATICALLY, it's just when you're used to it and ALWAYS do it that way you don't notice. but next time try and use Sprite or 7UP. it will actually remove all gamy flavor as well as tenderize the meat AND will NOT alter the actual flavor of the meat. as where milk actually makes the meat taste sweeter and will give the crust a little bit of a powdered milk aftertaste. and you will notice these flavor changes DRAMATICALLY after you've tried the Sprite or 7UP version.

Challenge for Guga: almost every Walmart I’ve shopped at in Florida usually has lamb breast. Lamb breast has historically been considered something to sell very cheap or give away: it’s mostly bone and fat. It’s the cheapest cut of lamb at Walmart but still relatively expensive. I wonder what Guga could do with it.

Elk, bison, and venison are three of my favourites (closely followed by boar). One of my favourite treatments is to fry the seasoned meat hard in a cast iron pan with butter to get the sear, then finish on the charcoal grill, pouring the flavoured, browned butter over the top as soon as the muscle fibers open up. Once you get the gaminess dialed into your palate, by the second or third time it's bliss.

After a successful hunt, we processed the elk with care, honoring its life by using every part. The recipe for our elk meals was simple yet perfect. We marinated the tender meat with olive oil, garlic, rosemary, and a touch of red wine. After letting it soak in the flavors, we grilled the meat over an open flame until it was just right. The aroma was mouthwatering, a blend of earthy and savory notes. Each bite was a revelation-earthy, slightly sweet, and incredibly tender. We paired the elk with roasted potatoes and seasonal vegetables, enhancing the natural flavors. Those meals were almost perfect. The only thing lacking was the OYSTER SAUCE.

@@Call-me-Al I understand what you're saying and I fully agree, but saying something that needs to be question and you don't have an answer for it is bad, like let's see how quiet you get after this question, what is the name of those surgery/anatomy channels you learned this from

My hillbilly cousins introduced me to so many different meats growing up, rabbit/possum/snake/venison/duck/squirrel, you name it. If they could catch it or shoot it, they ate it. When I was older I found bison, and really enjoy it but like venison it CAN taste a bit "gamey" as others have said depending on the age of the animal.

Farmed bison seems to have little gaminess, at least all the bison I had in Alberta - I quite prefer ground bison to ground beef, actually - an almost buttery taste.

My mom bought one kislux and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.

You gotta do an elk burger it’s next level! Have a restaurant near me in Knoxville that serves them and they are my favorite place to get a burger now. So good

Man that shot of the elk steaks covered in seasoning really looked nice in 4k.

We all know Joe Rogan sent them Guga !

Time out elk meat is my favorite game meat and this dude sent you 4 steaks and 3 look like backstrap. Dude must love your content so much bc id never give up venison backstrap let alone elk and I love your videos

You should totally team up with Sin City Outdoors. They go on hunts every year. They don't always get an elk tag, because those are limited and selected via lottery, but whether it's elk or mule deer, they're good people to hunt with from what I've seen. Plus, they operate out of Las Vegas, so even if the hunting and fishing don't pan out, there's still lots to do and see. The channel's owner, Junior, is a bit of a decent home cook, so it would be fun to see what you think of his catch & cook. And what you would do with the same kind of fish or meat.

I totally agree with the “it tastes like liver” comment. I have lived in Alberta Canada almost my whole life and it’s basically Canada’s version of Texas. Hunting is a big part of our culture . I’ve eaten Moose , Elk , Deer and Bison as well as every game bird and fish available here. . All of the large game tend to have a similar after taste to liver. When you make jerky or smokies (sausage) from any of these animals then it’s almost exactly the same as eating beef jerky.

@Guga Foods, you can't fool me. I know it was Rogan who sent you that elk!

I had an elk burger at Fuddruckers once several years ago. I don't remember it tasting that different from regular beef burgers. Also, more recently, the "Big Game Burger" that was sold at Arby's for a limited time was made with a mixture of what they said was venison/elk/beef. I also don't think that tasted noticeably different from an all beef burger.

If it is a wild elk, not a farmed one, it is recommended to cook it to at least 160 F internal temperature. There could be nasty stuff in the undercooked wild elk meat.

So completely wrong. Fresh, healthy, wild elk is the cleanest thing you'll ever eat

My go to seasoning for game like elk and venison is my homemade cedar salt, crushed juniper berry, and garlic pepper. Its super good and the juniper helps make it less gamey for people not used to game meats.

I always tell people who ask about elk, it's like a very lean beef but it's fantastic at picking up any spices you use. Personally I like using it in Cajun & chili recipes.... it's also very good in pot roast & stews because the meat holds together so much better then beef while still coming out tender.

Joe Rogan pricks his ears up.

Before i watch this video, i just want to say, as an avid hunter who kills an elk every year for the past 10 years, elk meat is EASILY better than any steak you could get, not even close. If it tastes gamey, you didn't prepare it right (What you do with the meat from time of death until time of cooking).

I completely agree. People that haven’t eaten game meat realize that fat isn’t the only flavour… the muscle has flavour too. Beef is lame and needs fat for flavour.

@@zachvydra9309 I've had everything from elk to caribou to moose to bison to sheep to rabbit to squirrel to mutton. You name it. Still isn't better than a nice fatty cut of beef or fatty pork belly to me, I'm sorry.

I've had elk many many times. But, my local hunter whom I buy from, always dry ages the meat for 30 days before I get it. It's absolutely incredible, tender as you can get and so flavorful.

Here in scandinavia you can definitely get elk at both bigger grocery stores and restaurants. And raindeer and bear and such. I even had elk kebab here in sweden

So I got both from a hunting cousin. elk and deer. what I did is made beef rice - o - roni. and mixed them together. it feathered the wild taste of the steak. :-)

The best way I've had elk was Korean BBQ style. Salted and rest in the fridge for about a hour, sliced about 1/4 inch across the grain and then charred quick on a really hot griddle. Still rare inside. Then dip in sesame oil with salt. Perfection.

If you want to go elk hunting, you had better start planning at least a year ahead! I think most states have already drawn tags for this season. Usually you have to have your applications in by march, depending on which state you’re applying for. And don’t expect to get drawn. Usually it takes several years to get drawn.

I love how guga’s spice level has increased over time 😂

Been a while since I watched your videos, good job on the weight loss!

Guga you have to try pronghorn! It's my favorite game meat! I used to go to a local restaurant that sold it. Became good friends with the owners: a husband and wife. Unfortunately, the wife passed away of covid in 2021. But the memories I have of her amazing cooking will always stick with me. I got myself a pronghorn in 2021 as well, took more than 10 years to be drawn for that hunt. But the taste was never the same when I cooked it.

I make a trip to Minnesota every year just to visit an elk farm I used to frequent. Elk is probably my favorite meat I've ever had. Moose was also phenomenal, but I've only had ground moose. I recommend an elk tenderloin. I roasted one up for Christmas dinner one year, and have been asked about it every year since.

Elk steak was my favorite steak of all time. I remember having it when i was a teenager after my uncle got a giant one!

Kudu done in french method is also a winner.

One of my best meals was an elk sirloin seared and served rare. So much more complex flavor! It’s been probably 12 years and I still think about it 😂

I’ve been hunting since I was 12 I’m now 37 I prefer elk over cow steaks and would love to have you guys come hunt with me. I love all your content guga

Omg your side dishes always make me salivate. After you hunt for elk I guess you gotta try some dry aged next too huh.

Bison is actually my favorite. In Montana it's pretty common and amazing.

I always wanted to hunt elk! I have a Japanese Arisaka model 99 7.7mm from mid-war dad brought back from the Philippines in WW2. We had it customized into a copy of the 7.57cal Mauser cartridge rifle John Jobson (the shooting editor for Sports Afield) tested in the 60's I'd like to use.

Whatever ambient noise you got going on, keep it, its subtle, but great

I'll take you elk hunting in southwest Colorado. It would be towards the end of October.

Elk Steak is Amazing! Guga, you are 100% correct! If you hunt the Elk, then you will appreciate it more! I think Elk steaks are amazing! My son & I are going on an hunting trip this Christmas for Elk! Can’t hardly wait!!!

I remember visiting a family friend on his Minnesota farm. A friend brought some deer steaks and we pan fried them in butter. This was farm country. These deer were essentially farm fed on the finest corn. The only way I could describe it is that it tasted the way pork smells when you’re cooking it. All those fabulous smells, but with pork, the taste doesn’t quite live up to it. This deer tasted like the pork smelled.

When I moved out to the Midwest and was struggling to find a job, my buddy helped me out by giving me a bunch of elk steaks. I would usually butter baste with thyme and garlic and serve with baby potatoes and whatever greens I could get my hands on. I ate nothing but that for about three months and lost close to 30 lbs because of how lean the meat is, I also felt higher levels of energy and stronger. Definitely the more nutritious option in my opinion

The only time I ever tried elk, it was grain feed. Northern ID / Western WA. Miles & miles of wheat fields and the elk just grazing on the wheat kernels. I cooked it just like a steak. Came out good but very lean.
