Venison Pastrami
 

https://i.imgur.com/Sm6oNZh.jpg

2-4 pound venison roast (a single muscle, like top round, is best)
Ground black pepper

Brine:
2 quarts water
2/3 cup brown sugar
2/3 cup kosher salt
1 tablespoon pink curing salt #1
2 teaspoons mustard seeds
2 teaspoons coriander seeds
2 teaspoons peppercorns
1 teaspoon allspice berries
1 teaspoon crushed red chillies
2 cinnamon sticks
2 bay leaves
4 cups of ice cubes

Boil the water in a large pot. Add the brown sugar, kosher salt, curing salt, mustard seeds, peppercorns, coriander, allspice, crushed chili, cinnamon sticks, and bay leaves. Boil and stir until the sugar and salt are dissolved. Remove the pot from the heat source. Add the ice to the brine mix, and stir it until the ice is melted.

Submerge venison roast in the brine for 6 days, turning each day.

Remove the roast after 6 days, pat dry with paper towel and coat the outside of the roast with ground black pepper (approximately 1 tablespoon).

Put the roast in a 200 degree smoker with your favourite wood for approximately 5 hours or just until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.

Wrap the roast tightly in butcher paper (or aluminum foil) and return to the smoker until the internal temperature reaches 180 degrees.

Remove and leave it wrapped to rest for at least 30 minutes.

Slice thinly against the grain and serve on your favourite bread or crackers, with mustard, sauerkraut, or whatever condiments you like.

Acient Italian Meatloaf

Sauce:
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3 large garlic cloves, minced
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (15-ounce) can tomato sauce
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (more if you want a spicy sauce)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
Meatloaf:
35 squares saltines
¾ cup whole milk
2 large eggs
1 pound ground Mule Deer
1 pound sweet Italian/Hot Italian Mule Deer Sausage
2 ounces Parmesan cheese, grated (1 cup)
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 ounces sharp white cheddar cheese, shredded (1/2 cup)
2 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded (1/2 cup)
3 tablespoons fresh basil (julienned or chopped just before serving)

Preparation
Special equipment: Broiler safe 13 by 9-inch baking dish
Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat to 400 degrees.
Sauce: Heat oil in large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add garlic and cook until softened but not browned, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, pepper flakes, oregano and salt. Increase heat to medium and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, cover to keep warm.

Meatloaf: Spray broiler-safe 13 by a 9-inch baking dish with vegetable oil spray. Place saltines in a large zipper-lock bag, seal bag and using a rolling pin crush crackers to fine crumbs. In a large bowl, whisk saltines with milk and eggs. Let sit until the saltines are softened, about 5 minutes. Whisk saltine mixture until a smooth paste forms. Mix in ground Mule Deer, sausage, Parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, salt, pepper, and pepper flakes with your hands (I use disposable gloves) until thoroughly combined. Transfer beef mixture to prepared dish. Using wet hands (or disposable gloves) shape into a 9 by 5-inch rectangle. The top should be flat and the meatloaf should be 1½-inches thick. Pour sauce over the meatloaf. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and place on rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the meatloaf registers 160 degrees, about 1 hour 5 minutes to 1¼ hours.

Remove sheet pam from oven, uncover dish, and sprinkle cheese evenly over the top of the meatloaf. Heat broiler. Broil meatloaf until cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Let rest for 15 minutes.

To serve, transfer the meatloaf using 2 spatulas to a cutting board to make 1-inch thick slices. Or, slice directly in the baking dish. Spoon off any excess oil from the tomato sauce. Scatter julienned or chopped basil over the top and into the sauce just before serving.

Elk Enchiladas and Chinese Tomato Elk recipes
 

Thought I would post these two recipes. Both are great.

1) Ground Elk or deer Enchilada

2) Chinese Tomato Elk (last two pics)

Jack rabbit recipe
 

I like quarter the rabbit up and throw it in a slow cooker with BBQ sauce on low 4-6hrs. It’s super tasty

There are some awesome recipes here.

Wondering if anyone has any suggests regarding sliced vs. extruded jerky. Also if you have any recipes. I’ve been using the MeatEater recipe the last couple years and it’s great, but want to change it up.

TIA!

Grouse
 

I find if you have 1-2 breast just just slice up thin and pan fry with butter and garlic

But if you have a lot if breasts just cut it up and throw them in some butter chicken sauce. Some rice on the side and your ready to eat

Thats were i tried it also at Devon Fish and game . I lived across the street from the new hall . It tasted like deer meat to me . only had one cube along with some porcupine on a rib bone

I made these the other day . Also included some mushrooms between the long wooden sticks .Just unreal . Seems like the meat just pulls in the bacon fat into the meat . Trick is not to over BBQ maybe around 155 F max on the inside

Wild game stew .
 

My recipe for stew is just throw about 1 lb of stew meat that was browned with flour in a frying pan by its self in a slow cooker on low for about 8-9 hrs . With some water with bouillon and about 7 shakes of worcestershire . After 9 hrs I throw in my potatoes that i cut into diced size cubes that I boiled on the side for 20 mins and also add a few cups of mixed vegetables that I pre cook also. If you ask why you add this stuff later is because the starch in the potatoes kinda of gives the meat and gravy a funny texture and taste .
I then top the pot up with one pack of club house stew gravy and one pack of beef gravy . This you also have to make on the side via microwave as the heat from the slow cooker is not hot enough to get it really thick.
So after a total of 10 hrs or more in the pot its ready to serve with some nice wine .

BBQ Spice
 

Does anyone have a good BBQ spice that they use . I am not really into BBQ sauce anymore
