Venison has enjoyed a rise in popularity in recent years, owing to the meat's lower fat content. Also, venison can often be obtained cheaper than beef by hunting (in some areas a doe license can cost as little as a few dollars), many families use it as a one to one substitute for beef especially in the US mid-south, Mississippi Valley and Appalachia. In many areas this increased demand has led to a rise in the number of deer farms. What was once considered a meat for unsophisticated rural dwellers has become as exotic as ostrich meat to urbanites. Venison jerky can be purchased in such grocery stores, ordered online, and is served on some airlines. Venison burgers are typically so lean as to require the addition of fat in the form of bacon, olive oil or cheese, or blending with beef, to achieve parity with hamburger cooking time, mouth-feel, and taste. Some deer breeders have expressed an interest in breeding for a fatter animal that displays more marbling in the meat.

No deer meat is lean. It is a very rich meat tho... The butterfly steaks,and deer jerky tend to be the tastiest. You can also make a good stew it comes out rather tasty.Enjoy !

Deer meat is extremely lean. So much so, in fact, that you have to add plenty of liquid and some oil when you cook it to prevent it from becoming tough and dry.
It's ideal for slow cooking, braising, and in any recipe such as jerky that requires a very lean cut of meat.

Michigan venison is the best in the world. The deer sneak into the farmers corn fields and you get corn fed venison. It's very lean but can be rubbed with oil and seasoning and grilled quickly or made into pot roast with broth onion celery and salt and pepper. yumm

It's very lean. My son in law makes deer sausage and you have to add pork so that it's not dry. He makes the best I've ever had. Wish I could email you some.

No, it's very lean, since the deer have to have lots of muscle to keep moving.

Absolutely not. In fact, you may find you have to add some fat to make it cook properly.

no venison is very lean, similar of that to the fat content of buffalo.

It's very low fat, especially if it is wild, rather than farmed.
