Due to popular demand, Slow Food Joburg will be hosting a second seasonal venison tasting evening on Wednesday 20 July 2011.
Our Slow Food member-hunter, and our sponsor butcher, Braeside Meat Market, have generously agreed to supply venison from 3 different antelope for the evening, and we’ll do our utmost to repeat the fun of the first event.
As before, the evening will consist of a presentation on ethical hunting; and on butchering and preparing the venison. Thereafter, we’ll present the meats, cooked, and you’ll be asked to judge the meat on taste and texture, identify the animal, and vote for your favorite dish. For the adventurous among you, raw venison will be available for tasting.
Venison packs of steak and mince will be available for you to buy, so bring along a cooler box.
