“One of my favorite gains from all the men in our home enjoying hunting is the freezer stock we get from it,” shared Briana Myles of Cussetta.
“We have not purchased ground meat from a store in years! I love the healthy eating habits we gain from their hunting hobbies.”
Briana and her husband Matthew will be celebrating 11 years married this July and together have two boys – Hunter (10) and Wyatt (6).
“Our sons are both avid hunters and enjoy the outdoors,” Briana shared. “The boys have both killed white tail deer, as well as turkey, with their dad and grandfather. They are learning how to appreciate what we have and how to benefit from it. They are learning to kill, clean, process and cook what they hunt for supplies, rather than just for sport.”
Briana truly enjoys being in the kitchen. It is a stress reliever for her and it brings her joy to cook for her men. When she isn’t experimenting in the kitchen, you could find her rescuing and rehabilitating baby squirrels or spending time at what she calls her “home away from home” – Greaney White & Associates. She has been employed there for 13 years and absolutely loves her field of work.
“I am goofy, outgoing, loud and will almost always have a smile on my face,” said Briana. Her hope is everyone will try making this recipe using venison at least once.
“If you have never tried venison please do! It is such a healthy and beneficial option when cooking,” she said. “It can be tricky figuring out how to cook it and get it to your liking, but it is so worth it!”
