I tried this recipe and the meatballs were a bit dry. I think I might have overcooked them. Next time I'll try cooking them for a shorter amount of time.

These meatballs were delicious! The bacon added a nice crispy texture and the venison was cooked perfectly. I would definitely recommend this recipe.

I've made these meatballs a few times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. The venison gives them a unique flavor that I really enjoy. I also like that they're not too heavy, so you can eat a few without feeling stuffed.

These bacon-wrapped venison meatballs were a real hit at my last party! They were so easy to make and everyone loved them. The venison was cooked perfectly and the bacon added a nice smoky flavor. I will definitely be making these again.
