We talk about getting them all the time, what about eating them? I make all kinds of dishes. Stews, soups, paper thin cut with onions, BBQ in the crock pot! Here is one I made last night, absolutely awesome. Chunks, marinated in Dales and wrapped with a half of piece of bacon, and cooked on the grill while watching the snow fall in Illinois. Can't wait to go Saturday!
great point!!!!!!! we do need to talk more bout how we cook em'! thanks for the idea. i am a crock pot and jerkey guy! how long did it take to cook?
I found a GREAT rub for deer steak. Its called cinnamon chipotle and its made by McCormick. I just use almost the whole can rubbing the steaks well, then grill it slow, and right before they are done put the rest on and it will crytallize, im sure its because of the sugar content! the stuff cant be good for you but its sweet, smoky goodness!
I will definetly have to look for that rub. I prefer to cook them on the grill but always up for new ways! Those pictures looked awsome. Thinking of doing that this coming weekend!
Marinade for venison. Whole D Milk. Soak it in milk over night. The Lactose Acid in the milk works wonders. If you have not ever tried it, next time you cook venison give it a try, then cook it however you normally wood and spice it to flavor.... SB MILK
milk eh? never heard of that one! I'll give it a try though for sure! after the gun season last weekend I have three down on the year! Thats a cheap grocery bill for 09!
I like a long marinade, 6 or 8 hours minimum. (maybe even overnight sometimes) I cut them into 1/2" steaks and cook them on the grill at a med/low temp for ~10 minutes. Ohhhh, that's making me hungry:d
That is what is great about Dale's marinade. The venison absorbs it like a sponge. When the Dales is gone, it's ready. I like longer sits also for certain marinades. http://www.dalesseasoning.com/
That Dale's marinade is pretty good. They sell it at the local walmart which has now become my main grocery store now that I've moved to the sticks. Last night I made some bambi backstrap on the indoor rotisserie. Just a quick rub with Adobo, garlic powder and some Costco steak seasoning. This morning I made biscuits and gravy with deer breakfast sausage. (pork added to ground venison to keep it from being too dry) I'm going to grind more venison today. I'll be adding some beef brisket for fat. We go through lots of venison burger. Burgers, tacos, chili,sausage, formed jerky.... (I cook 7 lbs of ground venison at a time when I cook chili). We've already eaten through two deer this fall.
Hey now....what are you calling the sticks? I am almost offended by that remark!! Which Wal-Mart do you do your shopping at? I might look into this marinade. I don't look into the marinades too often...that is until I run out of Buckhead for the year.
I live in Stanford. Population 700. It's the sticks. (more stalks than sticks really, more corn than anything) Being in the sticks is good... 'cept that there are no good grocery stores around. I do my shopping at the Super Walmart over on Market Street in Bloomington. They sell Dale's there but not the adobo. (at least not at the bloomington Walmart)
ya get em those are what i call deer balls. at least to ppl eatin at the house thatvnever tried em. they aere surely delicious. try and dip them in some ranch dressing. yummy. but my favorite way is cut the strap and the hindquarters into lil steaks, batter up and fry in a good cast iron skillet. in another skillet slow cook some tators, you dnt want french fries but just good cooked soft tators, and some gravy. talk about a meal fit for kings
I did a rump roast in the crock pot today with 1 can of cream of mushroom soup, 1 packet brown gravy mix, 1 packet french onion soup mix and 3/4 of a cup of water. Cooked it on low all day and it was great!
I will be down there next week...I guess I will have to go and check it out and find it. I will look at the store in Pontiac this week first though. My college teacher lived in Stanford...know anybody with the last name of Lamb?
