My best meal to date.....
« on: March 21, 2017, 01:54:46 PM »
Rack of Venison over saffron couscous. Venison stuffed grape leaves (pickled them myself from the folks vineyard {suck it hipsters}). Peta, Hummus with ground sumac and an apricot cardamom sauce.

Wow that rack looks great, and the pickled grape leaves are way off the chart for imagination - how were they?

Merkaba, I saw your other post with the tagine.  Moroccan can be exquisite, the salted preserved lemons add so much to the mix.  Thank you for bringing this to the forum.

I personally find that venison chops served that rare are too difficult to bite & chew, I prefer just a BIT more heat (not too much more).  What was your experience here?

This was really tender. I seared it on direct heat on one side of the grill then indirect heat until the racks were done. Done for me is an internal temp of 137-139. Then a resting period of about 15 min under foil. As long as the deer was aged a bit before you butcher it you should be ok. But that's my experience, maybe I only shoot super tender baby deer. Deer veal if you will.

Your dishes can do so much more tipping minds about hunting amongst the hipsters than all the science articles I could ever dig up.

They were great, used more of a Lebanese spice blend to season the meat. Steamed them in chicken stock and some lemons.
