I have had this one and it is delicious. Great over some vanilla ice cream.

This one is a long process, but well worth it. If anyone is ever \"one the fence\" about elk or venison, this is a good one to throw at them.

Here\'s the written recipe:

ELK MOUNTAIN CHOPS

Ingredients:

4 large venison round steaks, or elk loin chops

4 slices of bacon

1 large onion (chopped)

1/2 cup beef bouillion

1/2 cup red wine *(for Paleo recipe, skip the wine, and double the bouillion)

1 14 oz can of stewed tomatoes, drained

1 8 oz can mushrooms

1 cup sour cream *(for Paleo recipe, substitute 1 can coconut milk, chilled, with a little lemon juice, whisk in a little coconut flour, stir in with pan reduction, simmer and thicken)

Procedure:

Trim all fat and white matter from chops. Then, marinate and chill.

To make the marinade: Combine 1/2 cup olive oil from sun dried tomates with 1/4 cup balsalmic vinegar. Add one teaspoon crushed black pepper. Whisk until creamy.

Another marinade variation: place chops in buttermilk, and refrigerate overnight.

After chops have been sufficiently marinated, remove from marinade, and rinse clean and pat dry. In a high sided skillet, cook bacon until done. Eat the bacon now, you?re probably getting hungry!

Over medium heat, sear the chops in the bacon grease on both sides, and then add the onions, and cook until clear. Add tomatoes, wine, and bouillion, reduce heat, and slowly simmer until the meat can be cut with a spoon (usually about 2 to 3 hours). Carefully remove the steaks, and place them on a plate in a warm oven.

Add sour cream and mushrooms to the ?stuff? (reduction) left in the pan, stir to create a thick sauce, and heat through. Salt and pepper to taste, pour over the steaks, and serve!

I can vouch for this one!! So good it is making my mouth water just thinking of it!
 
I am trying something odd tonight, but I like trying new things.


I am slow cooking some thinly sliced venison backstraps.
I added two cups of water and some french dip seasoning.
I\'ll slow cook it for about 5-7 hours and then throw it in some fresh baguette bread.


I hope it\'s good!

Time to be thinking about BBQ and firing up the smoker. Here\'s my favorite spice rub mix - I modified the original to have less salt and divided the chili powder to include ancho. This makes ALOT of spice rub so could make with another person or two and split it up. I got bulk spices from CostCo but using a spice shop like Penzey\'s might be even better/more fresh.

Spurs Rub
16 tablespoons paprika
8 tablespoons of each: sugar, brown sugar, ground cumin, fresh cracked black pepper
4 tablespoons of each: salt, chili powder, ancho chili powder, cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon granulated garlic
Mix all ingredients and rub liberally on meat before cooking.
 
This one takes a little while to get everything together but well worth it!

Western Wontons

Ingredients:
1/2 pound lean ground beef, buffalo, or venison
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, chopped
3 tablespoons prepared salsa
2 teaspoons Western Sizzle Burger Seasoning
(Original, Mesquite or Hickory)
1 can peeled, chopped green chiles, drained
30 wonton wrappers
1 1/4 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
Oil for deep frying

Directions:
In large skillet, brown ground meat in oil over medium heat. Add onion, salsa, and Western Sizzle Burger Seasoning, simmer about 15 minutes.
Remove from heat. Place two chili pieces on wonton wrapper. Top with 1 heaping teaspoon meat and 1 teaspoon cheese. Moisten edges of wonton wrapper with cold water; fold diagonally over chili and cheese, pressing edges to seal. Moisten one corner of folded wonton; bring two corners together and press to seal. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Heat oil in deep fryer. Add wontons, 3 at a time. Cook until golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer to paper towel lined plate and keep warm; fry remaining wontons. Serve with additional salsa, if desired.

Modifications:
In place of Western Sizzle Burger Seasoning, use black pepper, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, crushed red pepper and some cumin. Add crushed garlic and brown with ground meat and use less onion than listed. I also just fold the wonton wrap once so that it makes a triangle.
 
And one last post for dessert....

Bread Pudding

6 hoagie rolls ? stale
1 qt milk
3 eggs
1 ? C sugar
2 T vanilla
1 C raisins

Break apart bread into large mixing bowl. Add milk and let stand 1 hour. I put a saucer or small plate on top of the bread so it will hold it down and soak up the milk. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, mix in the sugar then add raisins. Combine this with the bread/milk and mix together well. Pour into a greased casserole dish and bake at 350 for 55-60 minutes(I like to push on the bread to make sure it is kind of sponge like before taking out of the oven. Set aside and let it cool.

Whiskey Sauce:
8 T butter
1 C sugar
1 egg
4 T bourbon

In a double broiler pan, melt the butter and mix in the sugar. When sugar is dissolved good, remove from heat and beat in the egg until well blended and the mixture is starting to cool. Stir in the bourbon. Pour on top of the bread pudding then broil in the oven until the topping starts to bubble. Remove and serve warm ? preferably with whipped cream or ice cream.

Hopefully it won\'t be raining this weekend and I can get a pork shoulder and maybe some ribs on the smoker!

Pork Shoulder
4 pound pork shoulder
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tbsps lemon juice
2 tbsps lime juice
3 garlic cloves
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp granulated onion
2 tbsps brown sugar
1/2 tsp Ancho chili powder
1/2 tsp cumin
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper

Create a dry rub by mincing the garlic cloves and mixing them with the smoked paprika, granulated onion, brown sugar, Ancho chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.(OR use the Spurs Rub instead). In a small bowl mix the apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, and lime juice together.

Spread the dry rub across the pork shoulder, making sure to get the rub everywhere. Let the shoulder sit for a few minutes before putting the pork into a pan or large plastic bag. Gently pour the vinegar mixture over the meat, moving it around to get it everywhere, without washing off the dry rub. Let the pork soak in the cider mixture for 40 to 50 minutes, depending on how much you want the vinegar flavor to come through.

The pork shoulder is best cooked in a smoker at around 200 to 220? for five to six hours.
 
Can\'t take credit for this, but my 24 yr old frugal and creative (super cheap) son sent this picture to me last night.

He bought a large, $5 cheese pizza, cut it half and froze the other side. There was some older Gouda cheese in his fridge that had gotten a little hard so he crumbled it up and spread over the half pie. Then he added green olives and venison pieces he\'d marinaded. Baked until cheese melted and turning brown. No hard and fast recipe necessary, but I haven\'t used venison on pizza before. Think I\'ll have to try it!

wow. my neighbor keeps giving me fresh corn on the cob.

i\'m corn \"rich\". ran out of ideas so i shucked a lot of corn and put it in my weber kettle grill with some wet wood for smoke. i was done with the meat grilling anyways and my coals were still very healthy and hot. i just heated the corn thru. it is fantastic. i am cutting it into my daily salad for added crunch and bulk.

really surprisingly good.
