martharaydeen's sloppy does (venison joes)
I recently visited family in Kansas who own Prairie Wind Hunting Club, and we came home with a cooler full of venison and buffalo. I wanted to create something with the ground venison that would please everyone in my family (even those that "don't like game"). This recipe CAN be made with ground beef, but I prefer the lean venison, and this has hardly any fat, so it is also a healthy choice for a quick dinner.
