Venison Venison William Henry Hitchener Category="Meat"Venison is most often the Meat of Deer, but it also includes the meat of Moose, Elk, caribou, and Antelope. As with the meat of other large animals, it is eaten as steaks, roasts, sausages and ground meat. Organ meats are sometimes eaten but would not be called venison; rather, they are called humble, as in the phrase "humble pie". Venison is lower in Food energy, Cholesterol and Fat than common cuts of Beef, Pork or lamb.

Farm raised venison since the early 1980's has taken off in the midwest where hunting has been in decline leading to the rise of deer farms.

Venison was also the name of an Eau Claire (Wisconsin)-based Alternative Rock band fronted by Singer Rick Fuller of Harder/Fuller Films.
