Venison makes great chili or BBQ in my experience. Hard to work with it as steaks.

I have had most of the typical game meats, but there is one meat I have tried which tends to gross people out or make them mad,

When I was in Peru a while back, we went to the Peruvian equivalent of a Texas "home cooking" restaurant.

The main course was cuy (aka cui)- known in the US as guinea pig. They just scraped scraped off the fur, cut them down the middle and grilled them- skin, organs, face and all- then served them whole.

The organs and the meat around the face- especially the jawbone- were quite tasty- very tender with a mild flavor. The rest was pretty good too, but you really had to pick and explore to get to all the meat.

And in Venezuela there was a place with blood sausage that contained quite a bit of blood- I do not remember from what animal. Very tasty though.

The only exotic meat I have never really cared for is sea urchin in sushi. Otherwise, I tend to be happy when I explore.
