It gets expensive, but I add 1 part pork butt to 3-4 parts elk. I don't buy just plain fat. I think it's delicious and the meat holds together very well. But I also like pork in general. However, I can't serve it to a lot of my friends and neighbors because the the whole biblical "unclean" thing. They all do their elk as straight ground, no suet. And it seems fine. I of course like mine better.
