Juniper Berries - have you ever used them?

The farmed species are usually red deer or fallow deer. There is a deer farm about 10 miles away from me. It is only a small one and they sell mostly at the farm gate. Wild species here are the two mentioned above, plus sika, muntjac, roe and Chinese water deer. You need a special licence to shoot them. Most wild venison is shot either in Scotland or the New Forest in Hampshire. You are very lucky having such a ready supply of meat wondering about!


That's an pretty cool array of deer. We may have a lot around, but here in the Eastern US they are almost all Whitetail deer. Out west they have Mule deer and some Blacktail.

Moose and Elk technically are deer, but no one calls it deer hunting. They're so big it's called big game.
 
There are many German dishes that use Juniper berries. Schwenkbraten comes to mind and some sauces.
