Early Easter?!?

I honestly just realized I will not be home for Easter… so the black buck antelope leg I had seasoned (smoked salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, garlic, and butter) and stashed away in the freezer has come out for an early “Easter” feast. It is going in for an overnight sous vide at 131°F. Will finish on the XL tomorrow. Still flipping the coin between CI and on coals. We shall see what tomorrow brings.

    Tell us more about eating black buck.  I've heard mixed things.  One pretty knowledgeable ranch owner I know says they are not edible.  Another person told me they taste pretty good.

    I think they are great @Foghorn , but I eat all sorts of things… I would put it between lamb and beef on the flavor profile. It almost isn’t like eating game and this was a 4YO buck.

     Despite the drizzle the doggos are pleased to have a nice leg joint to gnaw on together.

    @BeanHead - Nice looking plate of food, Happy Easter!  And the Egg doesn't know, or care, if it's raining.  ;)

    Interesting cook. I have had it prepared for me once, I found it an interesting cook, and enjoyed the opportunity to try something new to me. Sous vide is the process for most game, I think.
