    Re: Do you eat bear meat??

    I only taken young (yes, least two-year old), mountain meadow, Fall berry eating bears. I've never been disappointed with the ones I've taken.

    I didn't shoot one this year simply because they were either too close to salmon bearing streams, a few were still cubs in my opinion, one was on the side of a road which turned towards and behind the bear and I couldn't risk that shot in the event of someone coming around the corner from behind the trees - never worth the risk in active areas. And the one bear close enough to get the truck to was feeding on a cow carcass and thank goodness he pulled up enough carcass for me to see bones through my binocs. He was moments from my kid slipping him a .30 cal sleeping pill - oh, I would have been disappointed to have taken a bear that has been dining on rotting meat at the moment of the kill. Couple roasts, sausage, smokies and pepperoonys are made from my bears. I never tried bear jerky or bear bacon but I thinking about it now.

    Took a bear last year in Rose Prairie, had obviously been feeding on grain, when cooking him up house smells of pastry.

    Thumbs up Re: Do you eat bear meat??

    I only take large dominant male bears from farm / agricultural / orchard / ranch areas with no access to fish.

    Last two were both Book Bears, one going 7'6" the other 7'2" and both skulls well into Book category.

    The Smokies & Pepps Incredible!



    And the hams were tender, juicy and had a marvelous flavor!

    Black bear was the only meat that we kept all to ourselves . .
    Had a 'book' bear aged by the then 'Fish & Wildlife Branch . . . 15yrs.
    Meat was delicious !

    Wow Nog that looks absolutely amazing. Huge bear, tons of a fat and excellent looking roast! I would love to try a slice of that. All our bears have been delicious (except the one that spooked Jelvis) but we usually only do burger, burritos, chilli, steak bites, etc... never been able to get a roast like that!!
