Shaffer's Venison Farm

Disappointed to leave this review and low rating. Made a special 1.5 hour round trip to their store to try a couple specialty items they offer. Purchased several packs of elk hot dogs, a pack of smoked elk sausage, pack of elk patties and a single snack stick. The snack stick was delicious. Unfortunately, my high hopes for the rest of the items have been dashed. The smoked sausage is decent but is tough and contains some unappealing seasoning. The hot dogs have a very odd flavor, which combined with their tough casings, make them nearly inedible. We have two more packs in the freezer and I'm not sure what we will do with them. The patties are the worst of the bunch. Very off putting flavor, sort of a combination of "very gamey" and freezerburn. Not an exaggeration to say that they're the worst burgers I've ever had, even after trying to disguise the flavor with all sorts of condiments. As a hunter I have eaten a lot of venison and am familiar with the taste. Wish I could give them more stars as we were excited to try these products and really wanted to like them. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend anything other than their snack sticks. Certainly not worth the trip or cost.

We have just ordered 2 separate orders from them...1 being the tailgate package...the venison bologna was good...the hot dogs were gross. They tasted like fish or imitation crab. We have a family of 6. 2 adults, 4 kids....it was almost undeniably fishy. It came as the first package which we froze, n 2 days later we ordered more so we had it. We just got done eating and I took one bite, as excited as I was to find deer dogs from a semi local, in our state....all I could eat was off brand shells and cheese... they were that bad...waste of our money especially during a time like this we were trying to treat the family. The 2 stars go to the bologna.

Very tasty, lean, great quality meat that is quite healthy for you! I've tried their ground Elk and Venison, along with some lions as well. They make for some delicious steaks!
