Watching.
I've only ever been exposed to it when I use to help cook the wild game diners for boyscout fund raiser.
Would have been a black bear here. Heavy dark meat and greasy.
 
is there a good recipe for a bear front qaurter
depends on what your trying to make with the front quarter?? are you shooting for a ground type product, a slow roast type products, a jerky like product a sausage type, give us a little more info so we can give you a few ideas
 
At a PA gathering with PC farmer we injected a bear roast with Moores marinade and let it sit overnight. Smoked it the next day like a tri tip and it was fantastic.

The local chief's wife where we camp near Cherokee,NC roasts them in a pig cooker. Turns out great.
 
I've done 1 shoulder roast off a bear, I brine in soy sauce, brown sugar & Dr. Pepper. Then treated it much like a pork shoulder. Took the internal up to 200 ish and pulled the roast. I believe internal should be at least 165 for bear. It was pretty good, but still greasy bear meat. Not a big favorite of mine.
 
I'll be watching this one but my experience with the couple of times I've had it is bear meat is a pass for me.
 
Sounds like they've provided some good approaches. Can't say I'd look forward to a greasy bear meal though.
