Returned with meat - it's game (10)
I believe the answer is:
backgammon
'it's game' is the definition.
(backgammon is a kind of game)
'returned with meat' is the wordplay.
'returned' becomes 'back' (I've seen this in other clues).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'meat' becomes 'gammon' (gammon is a kind of meat).
'back'+'gammon'='BACKGAMMON'
(Other definitions for backgammon that I've seen before include "Dicey business" , "Game with 24 points" , "Board game played with dice" , "Board game for two players" , "sedentary activity" .)
