Personal experience from someone who enjoys hunting and eating game:

The bigger issue is getting one's family on board. A spouse or kids who have grown accustomed to CAFO beef and chicken and not much else will be difficult to transition to gamier meats, to say nothing of offal.

That's certainly an issue. We solved that, by taking the boys to a local Methodists' Mens' Wild Game Feed (rural church event). The good ol boys brought out everything from the freezer for the season, had a potluck, a fundraiser for the church. We feasted on every kind of fish, pheasant, boar, wild mushrooms, every part of deer imaginable. All grilled or stewed in a machine shed and enjoyed in the attached shop space with big tables set out and everybody seated together.

To this day my boys rave about the pepper deer tenderloin, roasted and sliced thin. Best meal of their lives. And they're all about 30 now.

This is where the meat grinder swoops in to save the day. Venison doesn't always make the best steak but there's very few meats that don't make a good burger or taco.
