A culinary preparation involves simmering ground or diced deer meat with chili peppers, tomatoes, and various spices, excluding the common inclusion of legumes. This dish emphasizes the rich flavor of the game meat, allowing it to be the focal point of the taste profile.
This particular style of preparation is appealing to individuals following specific dietary plans, such as paleo or ketogenic diets, where bean consumption is often restricted. Historically, the omission of legumes may stem from regional preferences or a desire to highlight the venison’s unique characteristics without the textural and flavor contributions of beans. The absence of beans also results in a dish with a lower carbohydrate content.
