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! :)

What size of pot do you put this bad boy in?

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.
