Poorest safari faire?
Never found warthog palpable. I even tried to bbq is Southern style. Tough and tasteless. Maybe a young on would work but the old boars are nasty.

Eland for sure! ![[Linked Image]](http://i68.tinypic.com/mt3udk.jpg) Not much better anywhere, IMO.

Eland for sure, with Oryx and Zebra a close second.
Glad I tried Leopard, but can't say I liked it.

As a rule, I don't eat things that can eat me. Maybe I'm counting on professional courtesy if it every gets to that?

Lion wasn't bad but bushpig tenderloin was the best.

Best I ever had was back straps from a dagga boy. They marinated them for a day, in what I don't know, and they were tasty and tender. Never tried eland.
Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.

Elk hunter, That's an interesting twist to this. I too have had eland from Texas and I could not tell a taste difference from the Africa fed animals. However Kudu is a more distinct taste. The Kudu steaks I've eaten from Texas were not exactly the same taste as those from Africa. I guess that is based on the diet they have in Texas. Kudu being browsers eating the leaves must be enough different then they have in Africa. Where the Eland being grazers utilizing the grasses the Steaks were identical.
Guess grass is grass but leaves are much different at developing the flavor?

Thick eland t-bones cooked rare on the braai for me!
Sitting around the grill chugging a couple beverages while the meat sizzles. Doesn't get any better than that!
