Tip: Cooking today's ranch-raised venison no longer requires the slow-cooking and low temperatures traditionally used for wild deer. Ranch-raised deer meat is most tender and moist when seared quickly over high heat so its interior remains rare. Learn more about venison cuts, recommended cooking methods and temperatures.


About D'Artagnan's Cervena-Certified Venison from New Zealand
Naturally low in calories and fat, yet packed with nutrients like iron, zinc and B vitamins, Cervena Venison is a high-quality protein and one of the healthiest red meats available today. (According to the USDA National Nutrient Database, venison has about 20% less fat and about 100 fewer calories per 3.5 ounce serving than beef.) It's the ideal meat to include as part of a healthy and balanced diet. And thanks to its deliciously mild flavor and natural tenderness, it's the venison of choice among four-star chefs.

Cervena Venison is naturally raised on farms where the deer are able to roam and graze freely in natural conditions. The deer feed on grass, which may be supplemented during the colder months with natural feed like hay and silage. No growth hormones or steroids are administered and the deer grow to no more than 36 months of age.

This premium product is distinguished from all other venison by the trademarked assurance that the meat has been naturally-raised and processed according to the strict quality standards of the Cervena brand in plants that are specifically licensed and regularly audited by an independent agency.
