Moose are the largest member of the deer family. As such, their meat is also called 'venison'.
Venison is meat that comes from deer. The biggest difference between beef and venison is the way they are raised. Beef cattle is raised by human hands, where deer is wild game. From a nutrient perspective, these meáts are similar in some areas and different in others.
Moose is one of the most richly flavored game meáts, and if you're fortunate enough to bag one -- or have a hunter in the family who has -- their sheer size guarantees you'll have lots of opportunity to learn how to cook it. Check out some tips on cooking moose roast at Livestrong.com.
