A nice roasted duck gets my mouth leaking like an old galvanized pipe that you didn’t realize was rotting from the inside out
Venison, lobster, scallops, crab, and shrampies!
You missed all the great seafood!
My top 3 instant guaranteed to get my mouth watering foods are:
Vietnamese clay pot catfish (braised & caramelized)
Boiling Crab shrimps (Cajun-Asian seafood chain)
Hunan steamed fish (with salted chilis)
Forgot to mention blackened salmon! Perfectly cooked. I like mine with beurre blanc sauce😁
Duck
Nile Tilapia.
Also a type of duck we in my region of Brazil call “marreco”, the name in English seems to be Teal or Garganey.
Salmon. It might actually be my favourite overall. Delicious.
MANFLESH

Nothing like a mouth full of manflesh
Good ol long pig

Lord of the rings

Bison/buffalo burgers are delicious.
+1. It’s like beef but leaner and more flavorful.
Deer meat.

Someone wrote beans so you’re ok
Elk is fantastic. Elk chops with a sweet demiglas is chefs kiss
As a 10 year vegan, the meats I miss the most are gator tail and venison
What’s gator like? Chicken?
I had gator recently that was a plain fillet and not a fried nugget or something like that. I thought it was like a cross between chicken and a meaty fish. It tasted like chicken, but there was a slight sponginess and the way it pulled apart reminded me of fish
Sponginess is a great word for it! I wanted to describe it as kind of fluffy, but that felt not quite right
It’s been so long that my description might not be reliable, but I remember it as a slightly fishy, gamey chicken, but much softer and juicier than other game meats
Gardein’s “ultimate” plant based chick’n nuggets already taste kind of fishy IMO, and I’ve found that soaking them in dill pickle juice before cooking makes them taste a lot like I remember gator tail being like
The gator I had was fried and it was like darker-than-dark-meat chicken.
Quail is pretty good.
Duck. 🦆
I like duck if it’s done properly, but eat kangaroo more often.
Kangaroo has to be done right. A good kangaroo roast can be better than lamb or pork.
Ostrich. Easily the best game meat. It’s incredible.
Tofu is tried and true and super versatile.
Learning to cook seitan feels like a veritable lifehack the first time you experience turning 2 cups of gluten powder into a massive bounty of sandwich slices.
Things like Beyond (ideally their avocado-oil versions) are a bit too pricy, but a nice change of pace when they go on sale. They’re good for those random burger cravings. Same story with those breaded Gardein patties.
Soy curls are a miracle.
I added tofu to my rotating protein list and it’s been a great addition. I regret not eating it sooner.
