It is official! My buddy Leroy above is now considered a "problem" bear. Apparently he has been getting into stuff he shouldn't in a radius of five miles! The USFWS willbe putting out some culvert traps and hopefully transporting him to a new location in the near future. So long Leroy, I barely knew ya.

Recently he has developed a serious peanut butter habit....and once they get on that track it's hard to turn em around. I hope they find a good place with a nice 12 step program to get him off the jiffy and out of people's garbage cans.

My butcher does up a lot of bear, and always uses pork fat. I usually have him make up some garlic sausage and italian sausage links when I drop my deer off. Would love to nail this bear, but as Shepp knows, it take s a while to get a bear liscence in Wisconsin, and seasons over.

Sausage and ground/burger is the only way I can take bear. I had ZERO love for the steaks.

I can relate! A buddy of mine gave me a bear meat roast and my wife cooked it like she would any other roast. Couldn't eat that thing but the dogs enjoyed it! He asked how it was and I told him. He said "Oh no, you have to marinate it before you cook it!" and told me how to do it and gave me another roast. My wife prepared it like he said...................the dogs enjoyed that one too!

Bear is a very rich meat, we had ribs on my birthday they were very good, little tough (not because they weren't cooked right) but good! 

I made hamburgers with my ground meat, best burgers ever. we got garlic  summer sausage and regular snack sticks made. The butch I went to used beef they said they use beef because bear is more like beef than pork. 

Idk if you ever been to roscoes in Phillips Sisco but I really wanted to go there. Every thing I've gotten there is really good. Normally stop in there on the way to and home from deer camp.

i plan on making chili soon the wether hasn't gotten cold enough yet, I'm gonna use bear roast in it.

It's what they eat, and how much fat they have. In Wisconsin, they carry a fair amount of fat. More than New Mexico I am guessing. Shepp; Roscoes is good, used to stop there on my way back from Marshfield when I called down there. Always liked that town.

yes I forgot that too "what they eat" the coastal bears get fishy. I've heard on good years of blueberry crops bears taste great.

 

yes Phillips it's a cool town, and I love roscoes lol

That's kind of what I figured when Shepp said his bear meat was pretty good. The bear my buddy shot was from up in the Gila Wilderness or the Black Range, No berries to speak of and mostly pine and pinon in the area.

it's my understanding that grizzly's have the same comment about us up in Alaska.
