Glad you enjoyed it! I have never been to BC, other than to see the sign just past Banff that says welcome to beautiful British Columbia. I have never tasted elk either, but have tasted moose. What would elk compare to?

Elk compares to grass fed beef...verrry lean and very good. The fat is tallowy like lamb fat (sticks to the roof of your mouth), but I remove it all before cooking.
