wild game recipes
« on: December 07, 2011, 12:35:20 PM »
How do you usually cook your kill? Ducks and geese I usually make into jerky but I've also cooked them in a crockpot wit Orange juice. Makes good Bbq sandwiches. Pheasants i fry up in krusteaz. I havnt ever really tried anything  with deer steaks. Just cook them with some johnnys or steak seasoning.  Fry up the walleye in cornmeal and bake or smoke the trout. I've also learned that deer hamburger makes awesome taco meat. This year I got it all done into pepper sticks. I love trying new things so if you guys have some great recipes please share! I know mine aren't anything special. Haha

I found a venison chili recipe in a Field and Stream magazine one day, and after a couple of tweaks it turned out to be the best chili I've ever had..

2 pounds of venison (I used 1 pound of stew meat in 1" chunks and 1 pound of ground meat)
1/4 pound of thick cut bacon diced (I used closer to 1/2 pound)
2 medium yellow onions diced
1 medium red onion diced
2 jalapeno peppers seeded and diced
1 red bell pepper seeded and diced
1 yellow bell pepper seeded and diced
1 green bell pepper seeded and diced
1/2 of an 8oz can of chipotle chilies chopped fine
3 cloves of garlic minced (I used 6)
1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar
4 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon black pepper
1/4 cup honey (I like mine just a tad sweeter, so I add a little more honey than this...just gotta taste it)
1 tablespoon molasses
1 bottle Guinness or other stout
1/2 cup good red wine
1 24oz can whole plum tomatoes
1 24oz can crushed tomatoes
2 cans of black beans

Brown the venison and set aside. Cook the bacon and set aside with the venison. Throw your veggies into the bacon grease and cook until they start to soften. Add meat, beans and liquids into the pot and let 'er cook for a couple of hours. DELISH! :)

And now I'm hungry... haha

camo queen- feel free to cook that for me any time. I will even supply the venison.  :chuckle: That actually sounds pretty tasty but a hell of a lot of work.

It's easy to make, just a LOT of ingredients :) And it has spice from the Jalepenos, but you can always add more to kick it up a notch. I usually end up adding a little hot sauce to my bowl since I like things a little spicier than the hubby

Made the chili last night.  It is awesome.  Not too much work if you have the ingredients.  Mainly chopping vegetables.  Only thingI did different was add a jalapeno and thickened it up with a little starch and potatoe flakes.  My favorit chili recipe so far.  Thanks Camo Queen.

2 medium yellow onions diced
1 medium red onion diced
2 jalapeno peppers seeded and diced
1 red bell pepper seeded and diced
1 yellow bell pepper seeded and diced
1 green bell pepper seeded and diced (I left this out, I just don't like green peppers and I used really large red and yellow peppers)
1/2 of an 8oz can of chipotle chilies chopped fine (my store was actually out of chipotles, I used a 4oz can of fire roasted green chilies instead)
3 cloves of garlic minced (I used 6)
1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar
4 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon black pepper
1/4 cup honey (I like mine just a tad sweeter, so I add a little more honey than this...just gotta taste it)
1 tablespoon molasses
1 bottle Guinness or other stout (I used Guinness extra stout, yum!)
1/2 cup good red wine
1 24oz can whole plum tomatoes
1 24oz can crushed tomatoes (I used 2 24oz cans of San Marzano whole tomatoes, I like my tomatoes to break down into the chili)
2 cans of black beans (I used 1)

Brown the venison and set aside. Cook the bacon and set aside with the venison. Throw your veggies into the bacon grease and cook until they start to soften. Add meat, beans and liquids into the pot and let 'er cook for a couple of hours. DELISH! :)

I cooked up some awesome deer backstrap the other day. Found a packet of Montreal peppercorn marinad in the cupboard and followed the directions, I actually used 2 packets. It says marinade fifteen min but I did it all day. Took it out and bbq till it was medium rare! Awesome, most tender deer I have ever ate. It was a whole backstrap.

For ducks and geese make a mixture of cream cheese, jalepenos and Bacon bits. Take your duck or goose breast and butterfly it then pound it out till its all an even thickness. Spread a healthy layer of the mixture onto the meat and roll It up. Wrap it in Bacon and hold it together with toothpicks. Season outside with garlic and johnnys. Either bbq or bake until medium. I prefer bake because on the grill you get flare ups from the bacon and the cream cheese melts out.

Getting hungry now, I'm a big fan of gravy, I like to cube the steaks then cut in bite size portions, season with montreal seasoning, flour fry in a pan until crispy add stock,  makes its own gravy, some of the best eats ever. All you need to do is cook some spuds.

Yes! In fact it is against the law to kill a bear and NOT eat the meat.

Army......I've only killed one bear....tasted great. From talking with others I would say that bear is very much "what it eats". A grass fed blackberry eating fatty like my bear is good....a rotten salmon garbage eating bear is probably pretty nasty. Also, proper care of the meat and immediate cooling is very important.

Chili gets me into trouble. How about some other recipes? I'm always doing the same ones. Spaghetti, stir fry, meatloaf, stroganoff, grilled steak, fried steak, fajitas, pot roast (then french dip leftovers) and occasionally stew speaking of which its been a while.

Sounds like a good chili recipe, very similar to the one we usually use.  Might have to try tweaking ours a bit and see how it does.

I take deer or elk back strap and cut it into half inch steaks and soak them in buttermilk over night in the fridge.

Take a large sweet onion and slice it thin
Take a large apple, any kind i like fuji's or pink ladys and slice it thin like the onion.
Open a 1 pound package of bacon.

Put a layer of onion in the bottom of a glass baking dish, i use a 9x9 dish.
Then add a layer of apple, then a layer of backstrap then cover with bacon, then another layer of onion, apple, backstrap and bacon.
I add a half cup of water.
Put in the preheated oven @ 375 for 1 hour to 1 hour 15 min. or untill done to your liking. I like my steak med. rare and an hour makes it perfect. It is my favorite recipe.

I make my own coleslaw to go with this.
1 package of coleslaw blend in the produce section.
1 cup of mayo
3 TBSP of apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup of splenda
1/2 cup of your favorite nut, i use toasted pine nuts or pistachios
1/2 cup of craisins

Mix Mayo, vinegar and splenda in a bowl and let it sit for an hour. The vinegar will mellow out over the hour.

Then mix the nuts and craisins and cabbage with the mayo mixture untill you like it... Best i have ever had.

Kinda feel like the chili hi jacked this thread.. :chuckle: lol

By the way, I suggest making a double batch... One to eat, and one to freeze. I've tried countless times to make one pot with the intention of freezing it for ready made meals... but it ends up all getting eaten ;)  Nice to have some in the freezer ready to eat for easy lunches and dinners ;)

The problem with most of my recipes is that I learned to cook from my Dad (PapaDave) who doesn't measure much, and never writes anything down...  :chuckle:  I need to work on that because it's my biggest pet peeve now when I'm trying to cook the stuff I grew up on.

And BESIDES.... I can't let ALLLL my secrets out!!!  :chuckle:

1 ear of corn (cut off ear)
4 Limes
2 lemons
1 orange
2 large poblano peppers (cut into 1/4"x2" strips)
1 jalapeno
1 Serrano pepper (sliced)
5 gloves of garlic
1 bunch of cilantro
Cumin
Cayenne Pepper
Chilli Powder
Black Pepper
Salt
1 can of enchilada sauce
1 package of Monterrey jack cheese
1 package of medium flour tortillas.
Sour cream (optional)
Salsa (optional)

Marinade
1. Combine juice and zest (2 cheap kitchen tools below will make your life a lot easier) of 3 limes, 1 lemon, and 1 orange in marinating container. Don't use bottled juice, the fresh juice is the most important ingredient in the whole dish. Add 2 minced garlic cloves, sliced jalapeno (remove seeds for less spiciness), cayenne pepper, Chilli Powder, and small handful of roughly chopped cilantro. Salt and Pepper the steak and add to the marinade. Marinate for at least 2 hours. I haven't done overnight, but I bet it would be awesome.

2. Heat 3 tablespoons of VEGETABLE OIL on medium/high in a large pan. Cook the steak until medium rare (about 5 minutes on each side). Remove from pan and set aside.

3. In same pan, cook onion for a few minutes until clear. Add Polano, serrano, and corn and cook until soft. Liberally add salt and pepper then add 2 cloves of minced garlic, Cayenne pepper, and a good tablespoon of cumin. Mix well and add juice from 1 lemon, 1 lime and a couple tablespoons of the enchilada sauce. At the very end, add a couple tablespoons of coarsely chopped cilantro. The onions should just be starting to brown and the whole thing should be wet, but not soupy. Remove from pan and put in a big mixing bowl.

4. By now the steak should be cool enough to touch. cut it into half inch cubes and put in the bowl with the the other stuff and mix well with a wooden spoon. The mixture should be about 50/50 meat and vegetables.

5. Spoon mixture into tortilla shells and roll. Place in a regular sized casserole dish. Pour enchilada (1 tablespoon per shell) sauce over tortillas and sprinkle cheese over the top of that. Cook for 10 - 15 minutes at 400 or until cheese melts and shells start to crisp up a little bit on the ends.

Serve with Salsa, the remaining enchilada sauce, and sour cream.
