Deer Season, Venison Recipes and Hunting by Fat Bike

This week on WTMJ Outdoors, presented by Outdoor Living Unlimited, Steve Scaffidi talks with Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Outdoors Editor Paul Smith about Wisconsin’s deer population, the rut, the upcoming gun deer season and the ongoing EHD outbreak.

Chef Michael Feker shares tips for preparing venison and other wild game, including the best cuts, spices, wine pairings and ways to keep meat fresh. Plus, Dave Schlabowske explains how fat bikes and e-bikes can help hunters reach their stands more quietly—and make the outdoors more accessible.
