My husband and I brought in a bear to be processed about 2 weeks ago. When we ordered how we wanted it prepared, EVERYONE told us that spring black bear typically tastes really bad. Let me tell you, I've eaten my fair share of elk, deer, caribou, antelope, and this bear meat processed into burger, summer sausage and pepperoni stick is AMAZING! Thank you Von Hanson's for the most tasty seasoned beef (bear) sticks and summer sausage. The burger meat, if no one knew, would think it was beef. Thank you again for such quality. We have definitely found us a new butcher. Great job!!
