Really nice caribou and a classic old and effective cartridge!! We rarely if ever see caribou of that caliber in the eastern part of North America. Very well done, and something to be very proud of indeed!!!!

Wild Caribou to me taste very mild and much less gamey than other venison. It is my favorite game meat. The easiest way to get the kids to the dinner table is to tell them I'm making caribou steaks. Their diet (the caribou, not the kids!) in northern Quebec is primarily lichens instead of the browse that other animals such as deer and moose eat. The meat is a darker red and is very tasty indeed particularly when thick cut steaks and medallions of back strap are done rare in a cognac cream peppercorn sauce.
