With hunting season right around the corner, Murray shares some meat pie and quiche recipes to try with the moose meat from those successful harvests.
When preparing to cook any wild game meat, try to remove as much of the fat as possible as this is where the game taste lingers. To reduce the game taste you can rub prepared mustard over the meat and leave it for a couple hours, then wash it off and cook your wild game meat.
