I assume it was frozen shortly after it was processed......it will be fine, I just wouldn't soak it for too long.

thak you for responding yeah it was frozen soaking it was softening the meat so i took it out of the water and put in a ziplock bag put in the fridge

The only time I used salt to prepare my venison is one time on a gut shot deer to use as a rinsing agent. Other than that, I never used it to prepare it to cook. At times, have soaked it in milk which breast down some and makes tougher steaks more tender.

i heard people soak it milk i do it with tuna i catch too this is the first time i tried it didnt like the texture so i took it out after about 2 hrs it was frozen when he gave it  to me he told me it gets the blood out which it dose with tuna

what's your plan for cooking the ribs? I heard they can be a little harsh due to all the fat on them.......never tried it, but was told to par boil them and let the fat cook out and float to the top, let it cool and scoop that off and then cook them as you want

the ribs will leave a weird greasy feeling in your mouth other than that they are ok i would season the crap out of them

i cut the ribs into short ribs cook  with the backstaps in a casserole

They have a strong taste similar to lamb I would say (not the exact taste of lamb but that kind of kick). I'm not a fan
