Venison can be a delicious change of pace from the beef, chicken, pork routine or it can be like eating Luther’s boot. The key is understanding that venison is a naturally lean meat. It has very little fat cover and what it does have, does not contribute to the flavor of the meat. When preparing venison for cooking, as much fat, tallow and silver skin as possible should be trimmed off. Since venison has very little fat itself, your recipe should provide some replacement to enhance the flavor. Butter, bacon strips, cheese and even larding with beef fat will help. Don’t overcook venison. | Venison steaks and roasts have a better flavor when they are still pink inside. Try different seasonings, marinades and sauces to compliment venison’s natural flavor. Also, choose a method of cooking that adds moisture back to the meat. Simmering in a sauce, frequent basting, and slow cooking in a crock-pot are examples of how to keep your venison from drying out. | A general overview of How to Cook Backstrap and Other Deer Cuts can be found by clicking here. | | Barbecue Venison Chops 20 venison chops 6 oz Beer 1 large Onion, chopped 4 pats of butter 2 oz Garlic Place aluminum foil on hot grill with sides folded up, so there is no runoff of juices.
