While gutting the deer take the inside tenderloins and let them set on a plate, over night in the fridge, sprinkled with salt and garlic powder.
The next day fire up the grill and throw them on in one piece. 4 minutes a side. Don't over cook. Do them like a fine beef tenderloin, pink in the middle. MMMM! YUM, YUM. |

Venison won't taste "gamey" if you take care of your kill properly (clean, cool, ect) and don't let some hack butcher it. Have your meat boned and hand cut (saw cut on bone puts nasty tasting marrow into the meat), trim and throw away all fat and silverskin (fascia). Enjoy your venison :) I've got one in the freezer this year. |

If this stuff is so tasty then why are you trying to force it upon those of us who think the best tasting deer is a Herford.
I think the deer eating mentality is like any other virus. It will do anything lie,cheat, and steal to spread it's evil into general society. That crap just don't taste good. That's why they grind it all into jerky and sausage just to make it passable with spices. If you wern't all about assasination and trophies then you would head shoot the deer and not ruin the meat. But that would ruin the trophy wouldn't it and you brave deer hunter could not have that. Most of you set up your tree stands above the salt lick anyway. |

Soak the venison steaks in buttermilk. This will help remove some of the "gamey" taste. Batter it and fry it like you would chicken-fried steak. Ain't nothin better.

I don't know what the recipe is but I had some venison jerky a few years back. My uncle brought back a couple pounds from Alaska. Caribou I think. It was undoubtedly the best jerky that I've ever tasted. Unlike other meats, venison is slightly oily which keeps it moist and all that flavor is locked in.

I don't care if you like venison or ever eat it, but don't knock those of us who truly do enjoy eating it. Like I said in my earlier post, I don't do anything special to it except take proper care of it and usually butcher it myself. BTW, I don't hunt horns, I hunt dinner. |

Just for the record, I hunt meat and antlers, use my doe tags during bow season and hunt the big one during the rut with my muzzleloader or rifle. A mature buck, (5 1/2 years-6 1/2) will probably die within a year if I don't shoot it, it is good deer herd management.
Ok now that I am off my soap box [soapbox].........put in a deer ham into the crockpot w/ 1 cut up onion and 1 cut up garlic poor in your favorite bbq and cook for 6-7 hours. Drain the meat and pull it using forks then reapply bbq. Cut deer ham or loin into small steaks. Take a meat pounder and mash it into a very flat steak, roll in flour and cornmeal, fry in the frying pan, serve with eggs. |

I just ran across this page of venison recipes, and I thought you guys might be interested. Since so many of you are coming home with your kills lately....thought you might like some variety in how you cook it.

Great tasting venison begins with the field dress and doesn't end until it ends up on your plate.
First, make sure you field dress the deer and bleed it IMMEDIATELY after shooting. Don't puncture anything internal and DON'T get any field dress gunk on the hind quarters. Next, get it cool as soon as possible. Hang it up, skin it, remove scent glands. Keep the hair off your meat as it contains oils which will seep into the meat and flavor it. Keep the meat dry. Cut off any bloodshot areas you can while it's hanging. Keep the tenderloins and backstrap separate as they're already perfect without human intervention. The key to eliminating gamey flavor is to trim all fat, connective tissue, bones, bloodshot areas etc from the meat, slice by slice, before freezing. This is a fair bit of work but is a HUGE factor in keeping your deer tasty. Venison fat goes rancid much more quickly than beef fat - get it off your meat. It also helps to dice your meat into separate piles - one for top notch 'absolutely no white stuff' and another for grade two stuff with small ribbons of white stuff running through it. The grade two stuff makes excellent hamburger, sausage or whatever. My personal favorite recipe is: sauteed with diced onions until medium, with salt and lemon pepper and a tiny tiny hint of garlic. |

LOL. Hineline, you amuse me! [:)]
Venison is one of the most succulent tasting of the red meats. Very lean, also. I hunt horns and dinner. I DAMN sure won't pass up a good buck if he stupidly walks in front of me. If you get a good heart/lung shot (broadside is best) you only ruin some rib meat. There's not much on those ribs, so loss is minimal. I also agree to butcher it yourself. I've had some ham-steaks that are okay, but most processors just cut the ham with the bone IN. Makes for some funky tasting meat. I pull out the backstraps, the tenders from inside, and then quarter it myself. Make my own jerky too. The ONLY thing I have my processor do is make me sausage, because he makes it good, and I'm pretty damn lazy. I really need to get a good venison sausage recipe. Best way I've prepared venison so far: Take the backstrap, cut into medallions (about 1.5 inches thick) Slap some spicy mustard on them, not too much, and then bread them in a breading of crushed pecans and bread crumbs to form a little crust (The mustard adds a little flavor, but it's mostly to get the breading to stick) Pan fry, about 1 or 2 minutes per side in some olive oil. Makes them more rare than medium-rare. Then serve them up. Be prepared to fight for your portion, though. They're DAMN tasty. Just for fun, here's a good reason to hunt a trophy. This poor sap was dumb enough to be in the same area as my wife, so she took him. Sure he's pretty. But he tastes damn fine too.

Except for saving the backstrap, I have the rest ground for hamburger and get the butcher to season it with beef fat. FL deer are small so I just forget about steaks, the burger can be used in a lot of things. If I could cook as good as my grandmother I might do otherwise but instead I just choose to visit at suppertime on occasion.
My father and grandfather used to get it seasoned with pork fat if you like more a sausage taste. |

Most of you set up your tree stands above the salt lick anyway. David, I don't hunt for trophies anymore. Venison is not crap, it is very low in fat and free from antibiotics and growth hormones. Head shots on a running deer are not very easy. If you have a standing shot and the time, OK. You want to put one right behind the front shoulder into the heart/lungs. This wastes very little meat. I've never used a tree stand or a salt lick. We build our homes on deer feeding and mating grounds and our roads on their migration routes(at least here in the wild wild west). |

That photo reminds me of the Tinks 69 commercial that was on TNN a couple of years ago that featured two wall mounted trophy Bucks talking to each other... one was shouting 'Tinks 69, Tinks 69' and then the other said 'if I was half the Buck I used to be...' and the first replied 'you are half the Buck you used to be.'
