Beer and sausage....

[stevebody]

Judye's son hunts with his Dad (something which I did as a kid but can no longer justify to myself) and bagged a largish buck this year. He had a local butcher's shop make venison pepperoni, salami, jerky, and sweet sausage out of it. OUT of this world. The salami melts in your mouth. Old phony that I am, I'll eat the stuff in two shakes but I can't shoot it, anymore.

And, IMO, beer is the proper beverage with any of that. Of course, that may just be Southern genetics. I had a nice Yalumba Bush Vine Grenache with the pepperoni and it was far more than alright...
