About Muskox meat
Muskox meat is meat from muskoxen, a large Arctic-dwelling mammal. It is sold as game meat in some northern regions, though availability and the cuts offered vary. As with other meats, its appearance and texture depend on the cut and handling; the name alone does not specify a particular cut or preparation.
It can be cooked as steaks, roasts, or ground meat, using methods suited to the cut. Fresh and frozen meat are possible retail forms. Products described as muskox meat should be distinguished from mixed game products, and details such as cut, trimming, and cooking affect the character of the finished food.
