My brother made this with beef over the holidays and everyone loved it so I wanted to try with deer.
I tossed cubed venison loin in olive oil/ sesame oil with a couple chopped cloves of garlic and broiled it to perfection. Made to dip in this amazing sauce. http://chowtown.wordpress.com/2011/0...-sauce-recipe/
I admit, it's a bit on the salty side but so yummy!
enjoy!

[james12]

I felt hungry when i see those, can't wait to have those... Thanks for sharing

[sven]

This is awesome to get all these recipes and ideas and thank you all for sharing. I never understood the whole secret recipe thing. Someone else sharing in and being able to make your creation will not lessen the flavour you taste every time or make it any less amazing.

Satay is basically a vietnamese skewer, consisting of meat and few vegetables (if any).

We tried this last night, and it was so damn good I had to post it here for others to try.

Moose Satay Skewers:

1 Moose Steak or roast
~10 bamboo skewers
1 can of coconut milk
1tsp of Cardamom
1tsp of Curry Powder
Small dash of Fish Sauce - small!
1 Package of Tikka Masala or Butter Chicken mix - your favorite kind

Method:

Soak skewers in water for at least an hour before grilling - overnight is best.

Trim Moose roast or steaks of all silver skin and fat. Slice, cross grain, into thin strips of meat. Place all meat strips in a ziploc bag or marinating container.

Mix together marinade ingredients well, and add to meat. Let meat marinade overnight or at least 4 hours.

Preheat grill to high/med-high.

Remove skewers from water and "zig-zag" skewer the meat onto the bamboo.

Place skewers on grill and sear for about 2 minutes a side.

Turned out better than I ever imagined! Less ground next year, more steaks!

Venison Cheddar Sliders

Sliders are a great alternative to conventional burgers; less messy, easier to eat & share, and great for kids as they are easier for little ones to handle.



Ingredients:

Burger mixture:
2lbs of ground venison
1 clove of garlic
1" chunk of ginger
1 tsp of Fish Sauce
Dash of Worcestershire Sauce
1 tbsp of extra virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp of Oregeno
1 tbsp of Rosemary
1 tbsp of Chives
Fresh ground black pepper to taste
Dash of salt to taste

Toppings:
Pepper Bacon
Avocado
Old Cheddar
Spinach or lettuce leaves
Tomato
Pickles

Bun:
Sliders need small buns. Whole wheat dinner rolls work great.

Method:

Add burger mixture together and knead with hands until uniform. Place a sheet of Saran wrap on a cookie sheet, and begin forming small (meeting the size of your buns) patties and place on cookie sheet.
Once patties are formed, place another sheet of Saran wrap on top of the patties. Flatten a little more, using the Saran wrap to keep the meat from sticking to your fingers. Place in fridge for at least an hour before cooking.

Prepare toppings.

Preheat grill to medium high, and brush on a light coating of avocado oil. (Avocado oil is better then Olive oil for high temperature cooking, as it has a higher flash point).

Place bacon on cookie sheet and bake in oven at 400F until crispy. Baking bacon keeps it relatively flat.

Sear patties according to desired thickness. Approximately 1.5 -2 minutes a side.

Apply cheese.

Bring patties inside and begin building sliders, serve 2-3 per person.

Mountain Man -**** on a Shingle

Based loosely on the old military favorite of Chipped Beef on toast, but using a recipe I found online and substituting Jerky for the Chipped Beef.
I use handcut and rehydrated Jerky(Actually I cheat and stump it down my grinder) and then pour some boiling water down the grinder throat to rinse any residual meat out into a heatproof bowl to moisten and rehydrate

Ingredients
• 16 ounces cream cheese
• 4 tablespoons milk
• 4 tablespoons green pepper, grated
• 4 tablespoons onion, grated
• 6 ounces Game Jerky, chopped
• 1 cup sour cream


Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Combine cream cheese and milk in saucepan over low heat, until cheese melts.

3. Add green pepper, onion, jerky and sour cream. Mix well.

4. Pour mixture into small greased casserole dish (about 1 1/2 quart size). Top with nuts, if desired.

5. Bake for 20 minutes. Serve with crackers.

[blacktail]

For all you budding cooks out there. This is a great recipe for jerky!!

5 pounds of meat sliced thin ( take your pick...wild or domestic)

3/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup Worcestershire
1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup brown sugar
4 tsp dried onion ( 1/2 tsp powdered)
4tsp granulated garlic ( 4 cloves crushed/pressed)
1 1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp ginger
4 tsp crushed dried peppers


marinate for 12 to 24 hours in the fridge.
set in the smoker or dehydrator to dry.

[omega50]

Great grilling marinade for Chicken Breasts or Pork Chops.
1/4 cup of Dijon Mustard
1/2 tsp of Caesar Rim Spice

[1quietbear*]

Deer shanks are in my books some of the most flavourful parts of the animal
Sauté 4 small shanks in a large cast iron roaster, I use some bacon fat and garlic to start off.
Set aside when browned
Sauté a handful of shallots, more garlic, deglaze with beef stock
Return shanks to roaster
Add:
4-6 whole carrots
4 whole celery sticks
1 cinnamon stick
1 small bag baby taters
1 can stout
Add 1 litre beef stock
1 small can spiced roasted tomatoes(drained)
Pinch of cumin
Bunch if rosemary
Salt pepper to taste

Roast at 275-300 for 3-4 hrs until meat pulls back along the bone
And serve
I like to cook this a day ahead, let it cool and reheat and serve the next day to let the flavour sink in, don't add taters if you do this till next day as they will turn to mush.
Drink with a bold red wine.
Enjoy

I so can't wait to try that, and soon! Thanks

I used to make Corned Moose over the last 25 years, but do not get out hunting anymore.
Figured I would honor the tradition by making a Reuben Sausage over the next week- Recipe to follow-just as soon as I develop one.

[hunterbyheart]

I made this tonight and it was REALLY good! So good, I thought I would share. It did not sound appealing to me, at all, as the idea of putting apples in together with meat, seems all wrong. But it appealed to my wife, so I thought I would try it for her sake. Glad I did. Wish more of my kids were gone for supper tonight, as I could have eaten alot more. I would feel bad for my oldest son missing out, but it was just too good for me to feel guilty. Next time I need to add another +400g loin. Hope you enjoy it too.

Apple Bacon Stuffed Venison Loin

INGREDIENTS
800g venison loin (I used 2 - 400g deer loins from our Magrath quota hunt)
1 medium or large apple, chopped
8 strips of bacon, cut into ½ " sections
2 cloves of garlic (I omitted this as we don’t like garlic)
½ onion, diced
1 lg. jalapeno pepper chopped fine (I used 3 pickled Peperoncini peppers)
¾ c. spinach, chopped fine
1 tbsp. brown sugar
½ c. cheddar, cut into ¼ " cubes
a few dashes of onion salt
coarse salt and pepper

DIRECTIONS
Start in the center of the loin with a sharp knife and filet open the loin to about ½ inch thickness. Pound or roll to an even thickness. Season with a dash of salt, pepper, and onion salt. Allow the loin to set and absorb flavors while you prepare the stuffing mixture.

To make the stuffing mixture, fry the bacon in a large pan until lightly brown. Leave a little grease in the pan, with the bacon. Add onion, garlic and jalapeno pepper to pan and stir fry until the onion softens. Add a dash of salt and pepper. Then add apple and spinach, stir. Add the brown sugar to the pan and continue to fry until the apples and spinach soften and the sugar caramelizes.

Pour the mixture from the frying pan to a large mixing bowl. Cool slightly. Add the cheese cubes and stir. Then spoon the mixture into the center of the filet. Roll the filet shut, using toothpicks or butcher twine to secure the filet. Sear in a hot, lightly greased pan and finish in oven preheated to 450 degrees until medium to medium rare (20 – 22 minutes). Rest under foil for 5 minutes. Slice into 1 inch "wheels" and enjoy!

Served 5, but everyone was looking for more.

My mother first made this delicious casserole for me over 40 years ago. I think she said she got the recipe off a Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom Soup can in the 60’s but never wrote it down so the exact ingredients and quantities are lost to time. I made it using moose & deer liver 25 years ago and it was as equally delicious as the beef she had used. An extensive search of the internet for “liver & potato casserole” turned up nothing so I’ll try and fumble through the basic gist of the recipe as I remember it and I’m sure better cooks than me in the group can figure out the particulars themselves.

1. Venison Liver
2. Potatoes
3. Onions
4. Cream of Mushroom Soup
5. Beef broth or Bovril
6. Bacon fat
7. Flour
8. Pepper
9. Salt

Bite size pieces of liver are dusted in flour and fried in bacon fat till they are browned on all sides. Cut potatoes into bite size chunks and slice the onions. Butter the inside of a casserole dish. Place a layer of liver on the bottom of the dish followed by a layer of sliced onion and then the potatoes. Then spoon a generous layer of Cream of Mushroom Soup over top of the three layers. If you don’t use enough soup the casserole will be too dry. Keep repeating the layers until the dish is full. Pepper and salt are the only seasoning she used. I think she used OXO cubes back in those days but today you would pour in just enough Bovril or beef broth to give the dish some flavour/moisture. You want the creamy mushroom soup/broth mixture thick enough to stick to the liver and potatoes when you eat them. I’m not sure about temp and time but perhaps try 350 degrees for an hour then check to see if the potatoes are cooked through.

barbecue jackfish also works with salmon and trout

1 jackfish
garlic salt
butter
olive oil
seasoning salt
black pepper
crushed garlic .can substitute for garlic salt and vice versa

But the same recipe works for all pickerel.

[Nephrite57]

6 tbsp. butter
2 tbsp. minced onion
2 lbs. venison tenderloin, cut thin in strips
½ lb. mushrooms, sliced
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
1 cup sour cream, at room temperature

Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a heavy skillet. Add the onion and cook slowly until transparent. Remove and set aside. Turn the heat to medium-high, add the venison, and cook briefly, turning to brown on all sides. Remove the venison and set aside with the onions. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter to the skillet. Stir in the mushrooms, cover, and cook 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk the sour cream and add to the pan, but do not allow it to boil. Return the venison and onions to the pan and just heat through. Serve over broad egg noodles.

Fillet the goose breasts off the bone.They may be on the thick side so slice each breast in half.CRun the breasts though a cutlet machine twice,dip in egg,followed by bread crumbs and fry in butter...out of this world!..you will never roast another dry wild goose again after trying this!

[MrsSpinningChain1]

Following this thread!

[FlyTheory]

Very simple and delicious. My favourite way to prep salmon and trout, and takes the muddy taste out of stocked trout.

- 1 tsp of salt
- 1/2 tsp of ground pepper
- 1.5 tbps of fresh or dried basil
- 1/8 tsp of oregano
- 1-3 cloves of garlic (to preference)
- 1/4 cup of lemon juice
- 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil
- 1-2 fillets of pink fish meat

Mix all ingredients (except the fillets) together in mixing bowl and marinate fish overnight in plastic bag (in fridge). From there bake the fish in the oven at 375F or BBQ on cedar plank.

[nickmo1011]

That sounds so good. I cant wait to try that

[nickmo1011]
