    Figured it would be a good topic, seems like we have some foodies that cook a lot more than just game meat.
    I am currently thawing a beed rib roast that I will season with fajita season and cook in the crock pot for dinner when the boys come over. Cook it till it falls off the bone so good. Grandsons think we will be eating otter but that is another story.

    Trying to get better at cooking sauteed onions. I can't believe I went this long without knowing how darn good they are on a lot of stuff.

    Sautéed mushrooms and onions on a prime rib with homemade horseradish! Except I don’t know how to make the horseradish but I know it is goood!


    Winter does good for crockpot foods but Charcoal in the summer is the best.

    The grandsons are under the belief that I killed a rabbit thru it on the ice, waited in the cold till the otter showed up and I killed it with a f'ing pencil and roasted it for dinner.

    The trick to home made horseradish is the right amount of white vinegar and
    DO NOT TAKE THE TOP OFF BLENDER AND LOOK DOWN IN CANISTER. That is if you want your lungs working...trust me...lol

Wild turkey, mushrooms in a parm cream sauce over noodles, venison chili. Baked cod, salmon or perch. Salmon patties. Sausage braised in a sweet red wine. Pork and homemade saurkraut.
    All winter basics

    No points for originality. I made venison burgers. I didn’t have any Italian sausage thawed so I mixed some butter in with the ground venison, onion powder, garlic powder, grated Parmesan, Italian bread crumbs, salt/pepper, balsamic vinegar, and Worcestershire. Topped with a slice of Colby Jack. No buns or fun toppings.
