When putting a larger deer roast on the BBQ I have found injecting it
with a little olive oil to help.
I do all of my own butchering. I remove all the bones from the deer
and antelope, this has resulting in meat that is very much more tasty
than meat with the bones left in.

You want to make the jerky the same day the deer is killed. If it is
killed and cleaned in freezing weather you can stretch that out to two
days. Aged Venison makes funky jerky. If you don't use it immediately,
freeze it and use it in amounts you can comfortably process.
The better the quality of your spices, especially the pepper, the
better your jerky will be. Simple spice blending makes the best
jerky. Try not to exceed four spices. It's not supposed to have too
complex a mix. Makes it tastes funny.
The round and back leg meat makes the best jerky. Everything else
should be made into sausage or chili meat.
Always cut the meat with the grain, not across. Make sure to remove
any fat and connective tissue.
If it's too tough to cut, freeze it for a couple of hours and it will
be easier to handle.
The smoke house should be 180 to 190 for the first thirty minutes and
down to 110 to 120 after that. Depending on how your drying it,
thickness and humidity it can take twelve to sixteen hours. When you
bend it and it splinters it's ready.

Pat beef dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a 10-inch
heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking,
then brown meat in 2 batches, transferring to a plate as browned.
Return all meat to skillet. Add onion, garlic, and cumin and cook,
stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Puree
tomatoes with juice, chiles, adobo sauce, and water in a blender or
food processor and add to meat mixture. Simmer, covered, stirring
occasionally, until meat is tender, about 1 1/4 hours. Add hominy and
simmer, covered, 15 minutes. Season with salt.
I made this last night with 2 chillies, seeded, and it blew the roof
off our mouths--I thought I liked spicy foods! Still, once we
mellowed it with a little sour cream, we really enjoyed the flavor. I
liked the hominy, but my husband was not pleased--I'll use some corn
next time.
A fiery dish! Next time I'll use one pepper. I would also use a
better cut of meat for less prep time. For variation and to tame the
heat, corn would be a good addition as would pinquitos beans. We
thoroughly enjoyed it the second day too.
Tasty, hearty and very easy to make. Even the kids cleaned their
plates. I used one Chipotle pepper and one tablespoon of adobo sauce.
That gave the dish some kick without being too spicy for the kids. No
fan of hominy, I substituted a can of corn, drained and rinsed--the
result was colorful and delicious. I served it over rice. This dish
is great to prepare the night before. I got it to the point of adding
the corn, then refrigerated it overnight and finished it quickly the
next night. I think doing this also mellowed the slightly bitter,
smoky taste Chipotle dishes sometimes have. This dish will definitely
become a regular at our house.

Pueblo Indians often simmered large pots of meat over an open fire and
added fresh vegetables, like corn and squash to the pot.
In a 6-quart Dutch oven, heat the oil over moderately high heat. Add
the beef and cook, stirring frequently, for 8 minutes or until
browned. Lower the heat, stir in the green peppers, onion, and
garlic, and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until tender,
stirring occasionally.
Note:
1. Before Indian Corn can be used for Corn Soup it must be thoroughly
dried. The corn is picked in the late fall, the husk pulled back, then
braided into three foot long bunches and hung up in the barn so the
crows can't get at it.
2. Before Indian Corn can be cooked into corn soup, it must first be
put through a process called "lying:. Lye is an extremely strong acid
found in hardwood ashes. This is what the traditional Native
Americans used as it was abundant from their campfires. This lying
process softens the outer shell somewhat and allows the two black
eyes found on each kernel of corn to be washed off after cooking. The
amount of wood ashes to be boiled with the corn is a very tricky task
to accomplish properly. Too much lye will destroy the corn and too
little will not do the job.
lye. The Tuscarora reservation has three or four "lyers" who perform
the difficult and messy task of "lying". A "lyer" will do a large
amount of corn in a day depending on how many orders she has to do
for the tribal members. I get my "lyed" corn from Mrs. Norton Rickard
of Blacknose Spring Road. Usually I order five quarts at $3.00 per
quart. I then divide it into three parts. I will freeze two of them
and cook one part...about a quart and one half. From: Mignonne

Mutton, or mature sheep can be used in most lamb recipe's but it does
take longer to cook to prevent toughness.
There is a paper thin sort of covering over the outside of the lamb or
mutton carcass. It isn't suppose to effect the flavor unless the meat
has been aged for some time. It depends on the cut you use. On chops
it should be removed. On the leg, if cooked whole it should be left
on. For stew I remove it first since I'm going to be cutting up the
meat. Now, if you buy the mutton it will probably be removed before
you get it, except on the leg. We usually cut the meat off the neck,
shanks and breasts into small pieces for stews.
Coat meat with flour. Brown meat in shortening. Cover with water and
bring to a boil. Add spices and simmer until tender, approximately 45
minutes. Add carrot pieces, potato pieces. Cook until tender. Add
remaining ingredients and cook until done. The cabbage and mushrooms
do not take long. If you prefer, thicken with flour for a more gravy

For the amount of soup you want to make, take stew size beef chunks
from the store and cut them in half. Optional: Use lean ground beef
(80%+) in place of beef chunks; avoid fatty ground beef. You want a
good, strong beef flavored broth or the corn soup will be sweet
flavored from the corn.
Boil the meat until the broth has a brownish color to it. (Meat may be
tender when the broth is light but for the real meat and corn flavor,
it should be cooked until the broth is brownish.)
Optional: While the meat is boiling, add the raw onions and raw
potatoes if you choose.
After the broth has reached the brownish color, add the quantity of
dried corn you wish to cook. Cook for 30-45 minutes until soft and
tender. The dried corn will absorb the beef flavor as it cooks. For
more of a taste of eating dried corn, cook the corn about 30 minutes;
corn will have more firmness to it.
Optional: If your potatoes are already boiled, add them in the last
10-15 minutes of cooking the corn.
Serve Corn Soup soupy as a meal or drain the soup and serve corn and
beef as a side dish.

chop juniper berries and sprinkle half inside quail. Season quail
inside and out with pepper and salt.
We made this recipe for our New Year's Eve dinner for two. It was
very easy and quick, not too much to it. We did make two changes to
the recipe. We didn't see the need to clean the pan and add butter
before putting the quail in the oven. Instead we added the butter at
the end while making the sauce. Also, we added a bit of chicken stock
and a little demi-glace to the sauce for more volume. When I make it
again, I'll use a spice grinder for the juniper berries, rather than
chopping with a knife. AND BALSAMIC VINEGAR Crisp roasted potatoes
with rosemary are a good accompaniment to this elegant but easy dish.

1 for salmon burgers:
3/4 lb salmon fillet, skin

1 tablespoon dijon mustard
2 teaspoon finely grated peeled fresh
1 gingerroot
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 hamburgers buns, cut sides
1 toasted lightly
2 thin slices sweet onion
2 slice vine-ripened tomato
Make Salmon Burgers: Discard any bones in salmon and finely chop
salmon by hand. In a bowl stir together salmon, mustard, gingerroot,
soy sauce, and salt and pepper to taste and form into two 3-inch
patties.
In a non-stick skillet heat oil over moderate heat until hot but not
smoking and saute patties 4 minutes on each side, or until just cooked
through.
Transfer salmon burgers to buns and top with mayonnaise, onion, and
tomato.
Thought there was too much ginger - replaced with 1 garlic clove in
salmon mixture. Added honey (1/4 to 1/2 tsp.)to the mayonnaise to
sweeten it up - make it more like a teriyaki flavor. After modifying
a few things, it's worth making. Using pre-ground salmon makes it
less prone to fall apart.
Adding bread crumbs and an egg helped bind the salmon a little better,
without hurting the flavor...

Place the steaks on a flat clean rock. Pound steaks with another stone
until all the fibers have been broken down. Sprinkle a little
coltsfoot salt over the steaks. Cut the wild onions in half and on
the cut side, rub the salt into the meat.
Drop the fat on the stone griddle and let it float out over the stone
so that you have a well greased spot large enough to place the steaks
on. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes on each side, depending on how well
done you like your moose. If you have plenty of wild onions, slice
one thinly and fry it with the steaks.

Brown the ground beef in a saute pan. Divide equally onto 6 fry bread
rounds. Top with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. Great served
with salsa and green chile! A viewer, who may not be a professional
cook, provided this recipe. The FN chefs have not tested this recipe
and therefore, we cannot make representation as to the results.
Combine the flour, dry milk solids, baking powder and salt, and sift
them into a deep bowl. Add the lard bits and, with your fingertips,
rub the flour and fat together until the mixture resembles flakes of
coarse meal. Pour in the water and toss the ingredients together
until the dough can be gathered into a ball. Drape the bowl with a
kitchen towel and then let the dough sit at room temperature for
about 2 hours.
After sitting, tear the dough into 6 equal pieces. Then, on a lightly
floured surface, roll each dough ball into a circle about 4 inches in
diameter and 1/4-inch thick. With a small knife, cut 2 (4 to 5-inch)
long parallel slits completely through the dough, down the center of
each rolled piece, spacing the slits about 1-inch apart. In a heavy,
10-inch cast iron skillet, melt the remaining pound of lard over
moderate heat until it is very hot but not smoking. The melted fat
should be about 1-inch deep, add more lard if necessary. Fry the
rolled dough, 1 at a time, for about 2 minutes on each side, turning
them once with tongs. The bread will puff slightly and become crisp
and brown. Drain the Navajo fry bread on paper towels and serve warm.

SNOWCAP BEANS
Snowcap beans are a tan bean with a "snowcap" of white along the
side, and random spots of burgundy speckling overall. I think it is
one of the most beautiful of all beans in this book. Although I know
it is an oddball, found in a crop of some other bean, I can't help
but wonder if it is throwback to a bean that existed during the time
of the Incas, who used beans as a means of communication. Apparently,
beans of different colors, sizes and shapes were each given a
meaning. Runners would carry them and their important messages long
distances from one leader to another. handful of beans held a world
of information, which was deciphered by a cryptographer, who would
then announce the news of the day. Was there a bean then that looked
like the snowcap? What was its unique meaning?

Yep, the canned seal meat when served in the traditional Newfoundland
way does make a very pleasant meal. Key things to bear in mind for
seal are: it is actually a very lean dry meat, LOADED with iron,
requires some fat in the cooking like the lean venison or moose. When
canned properly the process makes for flesh that has more edibility
than when fresh cooked.
Boiled potatoes, cabbage, turnip and carrot. The seal meat ( all of
the contents in the can or jar ) is put in a pan, a pastry mix is
laid over top, thinly sliced onion is laid around the pan, making
sure it is exposed. Bake until pastry is crispy and light brown.
Remove from pan and make a flour gravy, makes LOTS, from the liquid
from the can/jar. This gravy does VERY well with lots of coarsely
cracked pepper. Seal responds awfully well to pepper. I don't think
it is possible to use too much.
This meal is washed down with strong tea - the spoon must stand up in
it.
ps. Canned seal meat is salted for taste in the canning process using
pickling salt. It does not require the extensive salting for
consumption that fresh seal demands. I use a combination of pickling
and iodized salt in the grinder on the table. I find it gives me the
balance of bite and sweet which is missing from either the pickling
salt or iodized salt alone.

You *CANNOT* use the same recipes on a wild duck that you'd use on a
domestic one. Because they are so lean, they will cook very fast. My
favorite technique, beside besides simply roasting them over a
mirepoix, is to saute the breast over high heat in either a bit of
olive oil or brown butter just long enough to sear the exterior, but
not so long that they are cooked through. They should be rare. They
are then removed from the pan and kept warm (on a platter at the rear
of the range or in a slow oven) while a reduction sauce is prepared
in the pan. Any number of classic sauces go well with duck prepared
in this manner; I generally begin by sauteing some shallots in
butter, deglazing with a good, fruity red wine, reducing by half, and
then adding a bit of brown stock and finishing it with a swirl of
butter. Garlic, minced gingerroot, or some crushed herbs can be added
to the sauteed shallots as desired. You could also substitute some
heavy cream for the stock. To serve, sauce a plate, thickly slice the
duck breast across the grain diagonally, place in the sauce on the
plate and drizzle a little of the remaining sauce over the cut
slices. Add your favorite accompaniments, potatoes or rice and
whatever... Serve some of the wine that was used to make the sauce.
You can accomplish pretty much the same thing over an open grill, and
_really_ impress the chicks, but the key is to be sure to remove the
breast from the heat well before they are cooked through. The classic
way of determining when you have reached the right stage is this:
Make a fist with your thumb tucked inside. With the forefinger of
your opposite hand, rapidly press down on the exposed muscle pad at
the base of your thumb of your fisted hand. That's the feel the duck
breast should return when it's ready to be removed from the heat.

The canvasback, depending on its diet before you shot it, can be very
tasty indeed. I would recommend the following preperation:
Pluck and draw the duck. Remove the breats but do NOT skin. Use a
filet knife to do this part and be careful around the wishbone or
you'll miss a bunch of meat.
For the sauce, add a 1/4 cup of clover honey to a 1.5 quart sauce
pan. heat over medium heat until the honey starts to slightly darken.
Remove from the heat and add 2/3 cup of a nice white wine (the better
the wine the better the sauce - don't use any cheap stuff). Return
to high heat and reduce by half. Add 3 cups of duck stock and reduce
until it gives a demi-glaze sauce consistency (about 2/3 of a cup
remains). Add a tablespoon of hoisen (you can get this in the
oriental section of your grocery) and mix in for about a minute.
remove from the heat. Optionally, you can add a tablespoon of butter
once completed.
Right before your sauce is ready, salt and pepper your duck breasts.
Heat a cast-iron or other type of non-stick skillet to medium high.
Put the breats in skin side down and cook until skin becomes
somewhat crisp. Turn and cook for about a minute on the other side.
The duck should be rare (I've never gotten sick from eating rare
duck. If wild duck is over cooked it doesn't taste near as good - the
difference is like night and day).
Slice the breast long ways and ladle sauce on top. Serve with the
remaining white wine and vegtables of choice. This is an easy recipe
that will make duck lovers out of most anyone.

To avoid cutting too much skin, skin from the back legs to the head.
Cut the front legs at the elbow and peel skin back far enough to pull
the legs through. I would allow the the carcass to cool before
quartering. I can fit a 130lb dressed deer in a 72 quart cooler,
cover the with ice. I do all of my processing in my kitchen but all
preliminary work is done in my basement. Have a clean rubbermaid
tote full of cold water to put the finished cuts in. Negotiate the
kitchen for wrapping, you should rinse with clean water before
wrapping. Don't try to make your cuts like you see in the grocery
store, it's a waste of time. Here's my steps:
Harvest animal. Field dress, removing all internal organs and split
pelvic bone. Try to rinse the internal cavity if you can. Remove the
tenderloins ( Best part ) These are located inside the cavity toward
pelvic bone. Skin the animal. If buck (mountable) from back legs to
the base of the neck. Remove as much fat as you can!!! Easy way to
remove hair stuck to the meat is with a propane torch. Remove the
backstraps. Remove front shoulders very easy since they are attached
by muscle. I usually use a bonesaw or hacksaw and cut in half. You
could bone- out if you like. Remove hindquarters and bone-out. Easy
just follow the major muscle lines. Cut steaks or roasts. Steaks are
easier to cut if the meat is partially frozen. I cook the ribs so I
cut them to fit my crockpot. Cut neck <B>roast</B>. Alot of people
grind it, I use it for shredded barbecue. Grind the scraps if you
have a grinder. DO NOT USE THE DEER FAT WHEN GRINDING! Use freezer
bags. I have a vacuum sealer, this will keep meat a little longer
then freezer wrap. If you use freezer wrap, double wrap it.

ACORN PEMMICAN:
Boil the lean stewing meat. When it is tender, drain and allow it to dry in
a bowl. Grind all of the ingredients together in a meat grinder using a
fine blade. Grind again, mixing finely, distributing the ingredients very
well. Place in a covered dish and refrigerate overnight. (Or you can eat
right away, but like many foods, the refrigerating allows the flavors to
blend nicely.) You can serve this on any flatbread, such as a tortilla. It
is best served warm, or you can reheat it in the pan in the oven like a
meatloaf.
Acorn meal can also be used in place of a good portion (or all) of the nuts
in most desserts, from brownies to cookies. It does depend on the variety
of acorn you have available and the taste after leaching. Some acorn meal
never gets “nutty,” only mild, while the meal of other acorns, such as
those of the Emory oak, are so sweet that you can eat them without
leaching, or with very little leaching.
You will have to experiment a bit here. But the end results are usually
surprising.
ACORN STEW
Place meat in heavy pan and add water to cover. Cover with lid and

APACHE DUMPLINGS
These wonderful creations are stuffed with ground beef, green chilies,
onions and seasonings. The ratio for the filling is simple:
60% cooked, drained ground beef 20% cooked sm.diced/chopped onion 20%
green chilies diced canned and seasonings
Gently cook onion until just translucent(do not brown) Add/cook ground
beef, green chilies and two pinches of cumin. On med-low heat add
garlic (DO NOT BURN THE GARLIC!) let the garlic become slightly
areomatic. Season w/ salt and pepper, take off heat and set to the
side, let cool, so that you can work with your clean hands.
Take your already made Frybread dough and make small pieces about the
size of a tennis ball and roll out flat. Spoon your cooled meat
mixture diagonlly across the rolled out dough. Dont roll to thin or
too thick about a quarter inch. Fold the dough over the meat mix like
a taco and seal with fingertips. It should resemble a sharp football
shaped stuffed dumpling. Repeat technique untill you run out of dough
and meat mixture. Place the dumplings in just enough water or stock
to cover by one inch. Add a couple pinches of salt to the water to
your liking. not too salty. Simmer the Apache Footballs for about 30
to 45 minutes. Some of them will break open, thats ok it will add to
your broth. Try to keep them intact.(I like to break a couple open if
I have made alot of dumplings, it makes the broth very tasty.) Do not
boil. Let simmer untill the dough is cooked and the insides are very
hot. Serve piping hot to your loved ones.
I hope they turn out good for you. It takes practice, but when you
get all the seasonings the way you like it, you can teach your
children and family how to make "Apache Footballs". PEACE!

into a bowl and add 2 cups of the flour-cornmeal mixture. Mix
together thoroughly to form the dough.
With your hands, shape the dough on a board into a long rooll 2
inches in diameter. With a knife cut the dough into slices 1 inch
thick. Flour another board and roll each 1 inch piece into a thin
strip about 1/2 inch wide and 16 inches long. Flatten the stips,
with your hands to about 1 inch wide, and cut the dough with a knife
into arrowheads, or any other shape you desire. Set aside.
To make the Guajillo Chile Sauce, put the chiles, pumpkin seeds, salt

1 snake
1 berries
Catch and kill the snake. Throw the head away. Snakes are often found
near berry bushes when the berries are ripening.
Split the skin back from the neck and peel off like a tee-shirt.
Leave the skin attached below the vent.
Remove the intestines and roll the skin back as it was at first.
Pack the skin with as many berries as you can get in. Berries that
are not quite ripe will keep their shape better when cooking and will
give flavor to the meat.
Strip off the skin and shake out the berries if they were too green
to cook well. They can be eaten, although they may taste bitter. The
berries were used mainly for improving the flavor of the snake. The
meat should be quite tender and will taste something like frog legs.

This member of the buttercup family is found in rich, moist woods and
thickets from southern Canada to northern New Jersey and West
Virginia, then west through Ohio, Iowa to South Dakota, Colorado,
Utah, California and Oregon. It is a smooth-stemmed perennial from 1
to 2 feet with alternate leaves which are divided twice into
sharp-toothed leaflets. The white flowers have many stamens and
appear april through May in globe-shaped or elongated clusters on
reddish stalks. The fruit is cherry red and appears July through
October. Disturbances to the nervous system from ingesting the
berries has been reported which might give some validity to early
(1785) reports of its being used in Canada (cautiously!) in some
nervous cases. It was included in a list of Canadian medicinal plants
(1868).

Beaver meat is dark red, fine grained, moist and tender, and when
properly prepared, is similar in flavor to roast pork. Cut the head
from the carcass and eviscerate the animal as follows: Make a cut
through the thin layer of meat from the breastbone to the vent,
encircling the vent, and being careful not to puncture the
intestines. Lay the body cavity open, and remove the viscera by
grasping them above the stomach and pulling down and out from the
body cavity. Carefully cut out the tiny musk glands from under the
skin on the insides of the legs and be sure to remove the castor
gland under the belly near the tail. Trim off all the fat, then wash
the carcass thoroughly with warm water.
BEAVER TAIL
1 beaver tail
This tid-bit of the old time trappers will be tasted by few of the younger
generation. Broil the beaver tail over hot coals for a few minutes (or in
one of those new electric ovens). The rough scaly hide will blister and
come
off, leaving the tail clean, white and solid. Then roast or boil until
tender. This is considered very strengthening food (use only young beaver).
For a special treat, cool, souse in vinegar, add raw onion rings, salt and
pepper to taste.

Cover a pot of nettles with water, boil and reduce liquid to half.
Warm 1 gallon of fresh goat's milk to 90F. Add 1/4 cup nettle juice
to milk. When the first clabber forms, (or clot) about 30 minutes,
pour into a cheesecloth bag and hang the curd up to drain. After the
liquid has drained for a few minutes squeeze the bag to form a block
and drain off excess moisture. Store in cheesecloth in a cool place
to "cure". You can also use this fresh if you want.

BEEF INFORMATION
1 beef
Beef should have bright red meat and white fat; the bone should be
red. Look for beef that is fine-textured, firm, and slightly moist.
The most tender beef has a delicate network of fat running through
it, called marbling. This fat dissolves during cooking and serves as
a selfbaster helping to keep the meat tender and moist.
Ground beef offers more variety in labeling than other cuts of beef.
Federal regulations allow that meat labeled "ground beef" can contain
up to 30% fat. "Lean ground beef" or "ground chuck" can contain up to
20% fat, while "extra-lean ground beef" or "ground round" can have no
more that 15% fat. You can see the difference in these meats at a
glance. The more fat the meat contains, the paler the meat will be.
The price will also decrease. Just because ground beef is cheaper
doesn't make it a better buy. Most of the fat cooks out of the meat
anyway and will only be discarded. Expect more shrinkage in recipes
made from ground beef.
Many cooks have been disappointed with the results when they've
cooked beef in their microwave oven. The key to success is selecting
a cut that is suitable for microwaving, and following certain cooking
techniques.
The microwave oven is not a good choice for roasts normally cooked by
dry heat methods. Meat will not brown in a microwave oven, nor will
it end up with the same outside texture it develops when roasted in a
conventional oven.
Some meat loaves work well in the microwave, too, and they cook
significantly quicker than when cooked conventionally. Meat leaves
that have a sauce or cheese topping are more pleasing than plain
leaves since the meat will not brown. When adapting conventional
recipes for the microwave, shape the meat into a round loaf to

STIR IT UP. NEXT SLICE UP YOUR MEAT TO YOUR DESIRED THICKNESS & MARINATE
FOR
AT LEAST TWO HOURS OR LONGER. NEXT PREHEAT OVEN TO 150 OR 200 DEGREES ,
PLACE
YOUR MARINATED MEAT IN COOKIE PANS , PLACE ON RACKS IN OVEN, LEAVE A CRACK
IN OVEN DOOR SO MOISTURE CAN ESCAPE, THEN DRY TO YOUR LIKING. IF YOU HAVE
LEFT OVER MARINATING SAUCE YOU CAN POOR IT OVER THE JERKY WHILE IT IS
DRYING
TO GIVE IT MORE FLAVOR. HOPE YOU ENJOY !
You can prepare your own jerky with very little trouble. Trim the
meat of all fat. Slice the buffalo (or beef) into strips 1-inch wide
and 1/8-inch thick. "Jerk" or pull them a bit and place them on a
baking rack. The meat can be dried in a home food drier or it can be
placed in your oven overnight. Leave the oven door open and set the
thermostat to as low a temperature as possible. You may need to
experiment with your oven, as you do not want the heat to rise above
145 degrees to 150 degrees. My large gas oven is perfect for this, as
the pilot light is on all the time and the resulting temperature is
just right. If you have such an oven, you can complete this process
in 12 hours. If you wish some additional flavor in your meat you can
soak the slices in a bit of soy sauce before drying them. Jerky will
keep for three months in an airtight container, for longer if frozen.

BERRY STEW
Broil the chuck steak in the oven until brown on both sides. In the
old days this would have been done over the fire, so you might want
to quickly barbecue the meat in order to increase the flavor. Set the
meat aside to cool. In a dutch oven heat the oil and brown the
onions. Cut the meat into bite-size pieces and add to the pot. Add
the blackberries and enough beef stock barely to cover the meat. Stir
in the honey and simmer the meat, covered, until it is very tender,
about 1 hour. If the berries are too tart add more honey to taste.
Add salt to taste and serve in bowls. This recipe serves 4 to 5.
Comments: This unusual dish would have been quite familiar to a Sioux
family. It is actually a buffalo-and-blackberry stew, though good
results can be obtained with a beef steak. I have tried to eliminate
the heavy animal fat that would have been used in this dish by
substituting peanut oil.

Soak roast overnight in saltwater. Rinse and dry off. Cut slits in
top side of roast about 2-3 inches apart, depending on how spicy you
want it. Alternate 1/2 clove of garlic and slices of green serano or
jalapeno peppers. Turn the roast over, repeat. Do not add spices or
salt.
Cover roast HEAVILY all over with cheap prepared mustard. Put in dry
pan. Cover heavily with yellow onion sliced in rings. Cover. Put in
preheated 300 degree oven. Roast til it's really tender, slice across
grain, serve with brown or wild rice and greens. Buffalo needs to be
cooked at a low heat for a long time to make it tender. If you try to
cook it on too high a heat, it will get tough, never, never to get
tender again.
This was Bill's Grandma Johnson's recipe for venison roast, but we
used it on buffalo, too, and it was great.

4 partridges [4 lbs]
2 teaspoon salt
2 cup game bird dressing
4 thin slices salt pork
Start oven 10 min before roasting; set to med hot (400 F). Do not
scald these birds to remove feathers. Dry-pick instead as soon as
possible after killing while feathers are droopy, due to relaxed
muscles. Later on, feathers become set and more difficult to remove.
Pluck bunches of the feathers out in the direction in which they lay
until bird is nude. Next singe. Wash in cold water to which 1 tbsp
baking soda has been added to each quart. Rinse well in clear water,
removing any pin feathers with a strawberry huller. Eviscerate, then
wash well on inside, being careful to remove the lungs and any
clotted blood. Drain well and pat inside dry with a piece of paper
toweling or clean cloth. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp salt on inside of each
bird, then fill with stuffing. Push legs and fold wings up close to
body. Wrap 1 1/2 slices pork over breast and legs to form a compact
parcel and tie into shape with twine. Put birds into a glass
casserole. Do not cover. Bake, basting every 10 to 15 min with fat
that collects in bottom of casserole. Keep oven door closed while
basting. Bake until tender, about 1 hr for young birds. Serves 4.

Pluck the woodcock without drawing it and bard it, that is, wrap it
completely in the sheets of fresh pork fat and tie securely. Season
with salt and pepper and cook it in a deep skillet over high heat for
10 minutes, turning it frequently. Carve off the meat and keep it
warm on a hot plate. Remove the gizzard from the bird's innards and
discard it. Put the innards on a plate and mash them with a fork.
Crush the bones in a press or with a meat mallet and strain the
resulting juices through a sieve. In a small saucepan, reduce the
champagne by half and add the mashed innards, the juices from the
bones, the butter, foie gras and truffles. Season the sauce with
salt, pepper and a little paprika. Simmer it over low heat for 5
minutes, stirring constantly. When the sauce is smooth, pour it over
the meat. You may serve the meat on a bread crouton fried in goose
fat or butter and spread with foie gras. Serves 1.

BISON SAUSAGE
info
When making venison sausage you can add instant potato flakes instead of
adding fat too and it will give it the added moisture/texture you need.
More oil is still needed for frying though. I am sure that the same would
work with other very lean meats such as bison.
Page 196
Reserve 2 tablespoon of peppercorns and crush the rest. Coat bison sirloin
with peppercorns, pressing them firmly into the meat. Coat a seasoned cast
iron skillet with non-stick spray and heat until very hot. Place steaks

to a heated platter.
Add shallots and cognac to pan and deglaze skillet (about 2 minutes). Add
cream and remaining peppercorns to skillet, reduce to medium heat, and stir
constantly until mixture comes to a slow boil. Continue stirring until
reduced by half. Place steaks on heated plates and pour sauce over steaks.
Serve immediately.

3 medium zucchini
2 medium onions - white
1/2 cup vinegar - balsamic
1/2 cup vinegar - balsamic:
1 raspberry
1/2 cup vinegar - red wine
1/2 cup olive oil - extra virgin
2 cup beef stock
2 large beef or buffalo steaks
Peel and cut the zucchini into 1/2 inch rounds. Slice the onions as
thinly as you can. Place both in a stainless steel mixing bowl to
which is added all of the ingredients except the beef stock and the
meat. Mix to coat the vegetables. Cover with plastic wrap and let
marinate in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours. Mix the marinade every
3 hours or so. While the vegetables are marinating, place the meat in
a shallow pan and coat with olive oil. Press freshly ground pepper
into each side and add 1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar to the pan. One
side of the meat should be in the marinade. Refrigerate and turn
every 4-6 hours
Strain the marinated vegetables, reserving the liquid. Pat them dry
and place them in a heavy fry pan to which 3-4 tablespoons of olive
oil have been added. Cook over high heat for 6-7 minutes, stirring
during most of this time. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Using the same fry pan, add 2 Tablespoons of olive oil and sear the
meat for 2 minutes on each side. At the end of this time, add the
zucchini, the onions and the marinade to the pan and continue cooking
over medium high heat for 5 minutes. Turn the meat over and cook an
additional 5 minutes. Depending upon the thickness of the meat, the
meat should be medium to medium rare at the end of these cooking
times. Lengthen or shorten the time according to your taste.
Place each steak on a heated plate, and spoon half of the now reduced
marinade and vegetables over each one. Serve. From: Karen Kas

taste. Gradually add white cornmeal and stir, until filling is about
the same consistency as 'runny oatmeal.' Remove from the heat and let
sit while you make the masa. Mix the cornmeal and baking powder in a
large bowl. Add the water and oil and mix. Masa must be a bit thicker
than a pancake batter. Add small amounts of additional water and blue
corn meal to achieve needed consistency.
To assemble, lay corn husk out flat. Place masa inside middle of corn
husk about 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick. (depending upon amount of filling
used). Leave outer edges uncovered about 1-inch on each side. Place
filling in center of Masa and fold in each side. Next fold the bottom
upward.
Place tamale in 2nd corn husk and repeat with tamale in opposite
direction of first husk. Fold and tie with small strips of corn husks.
Place in boiling water for 60 to 90 minutes.

----MATIGNON----
1/3 cup parsnip, diced
1/3 cup celery ribs&leaves, chopped
1 sprig of thyme
1 teaspoon bacon fat or butter
1/3 cup onion, chopped
2 bay leaves, crushed
1 tablespoon bacon, minced
1/4 cup madeira
----SAUCE ESPAGNOLE----
1 cup matignon, from above
1/2 cup flour
2 cup tomatoes, peeled, chopped
8 cup stock, clarified carb/beef
1/2 cup caribou or beef drippings
12 cracked peppercorns
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
----BORDELAISE SAUCE----
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 cup espagnole sauce, from above
6 crushed peppercorns
1/4 cup bone marrow, diced.
This is a three step process ( four if you count making the stock in
advance) but well worth it as it makes a superb accompliment to the
finest game or beef steaks and roasts. The Matignon is similar to
Mirepoix. Carrot is traditional in the classic French recipe but
parsnip is more appropriate for game. Melt the bacon fat, mince the
vegetables and add to the pan with the herbs. Cook slowly for 15
minutes until vegetables are soft. Set aside and deglaze pan with the
madeira. Reserve the liquid. Melt in a heavy saucepan the drippings.
Add the Matignon and reheat it. Add the flour, heat and stir until
browned. Then add the pepper, tomatoes, parsley and stir. Add the
stock and simmer gently until liquid reduced by half, about 2-2 1/2
hrs. Stir occasionally and skim fat off the top as it accumulates.
Strain the sauce and stir occasionally as it cools to avoid skimming.
There should be about 6 cups. Set aside 5 cups for other brown sauces
later and take one cup for the last step. In a saucepan, gently
simmer red wine with pepper until reduced to 3/4. Add one cup of
Espagnole and simmer 5 min. Add reserved madeira de-glazing liquid
from step one and the diced marrow and poach it 5 min. Serve with
game or beef chops, steaks, roasted Fillet Mignon, char boiled cuts
and sweetbreads.

Wash and dry canning jars and covers. Prepare canner and pressure
cooker. Remove gristle, bones, and as much fat as possible from meat.
Cut meat into jar-length strips, so the grain runs the length of the
jar. The thickness can be about 1 or 2 inches.
Place the meat in hot jars in layers with the chopped salt pork and
the onions. There should be about one inch of space between the top
of the meat and the top of the jar.
Set open jars in rack in canner (insuring that the jars do not
touch). Add boiling water to pot, keeping water level 2 inches below
jar tops. Cover pot and heat slowly for 75 minutes. Remove jars from
pan.
Add the salt. Wipe jar rims clean. Place the sealing lid on each jar
and screw the metal band down tight by hand. (This will still leave
enough space to let air escape during processing.
When time is up, remove canner from heat. Let pressure fall to zero.
(This should take about 30 minutes.) Remove cover carefully and
slowly. Place jar on a rack and allow to cool overnight. When jars
are cool, store them in a cool place.

With the temperature skyrocketing into the 40s last weekend (back to 4
inches of snow tonight), It was time to do some smokin'!!!
Put on a 10# brisket with Cookie's Dry Rub, a 5# pork loin with
Eastern Carolina Rub (both from the archives). Also put on two 2#
venison roasts and 5# of venison ring bologna.
This turned out great but wasn't quite right. The sumac berries were
awesome! They have a tart but mild flavor. I found out about these
while perusing a Penzey's catalog (1-414-574-0277). Bought them out
of curiousity and use them regularly now. The rub does need another
flavor though, I think I could get rid of the basil. Next time I'll
try a little coriander or thyme and some white pepper. I also plan
on creating a version of this rub for chicken.
I smoked all this using 70% cherry and 30% hickory. This worked
great for the venison and brisket but hickory is still king for pork.
The brisket and the pork butt reached 165F after 5 hours. The venison
roast was pretty flat and after 3 hours, it was done. Didn't use any
mop or auxiliary fat, just straight up smoked it. Once piece, which
came from a yearling doe, was melt-in-your melt tender. I was moaning
and groaning eating this one. The other venison roast came from an
old nag of doe. She was so big we were calling her doezilla. While
this old bitch was certainly tasty, she was considerably tougher than
the yearling.. After this side by side comparison, I think I'll start
aiming for the little ones. You can have your old mossy horned, shoe
leather tough, only good for sausage bucks. I guess you could say
the one I shot was "good eatin' size".
The ring bologna was split lengthwise and thrown on for about 1.5
hours. Tasty!
wanting to miss a party, put put the brisket in the oven at 200F,
tore off a bunch of pork for the neighbors, and brought a 12 pack to
the festivities. After 6 hours in the oven, I stumbled home turned
off the oven. I cut the brisketdown the center and it just oozed with
juice. I usually trim the fat cap a little but this time I left the
whole thing intact. I have to say that this was the best brisket I've
ever smoked. The texture was perfect. Tender and juicy. The rub
wasn't so great. I won't use it again.
The pork loin was fantastic as well. I really like the rub I used. I
think I use that again.

This is a dish that I came up with. I do not measure spices so I can really
say how much of each one. I just sprinkle them to cover the browning meat.
So here we go :-)
Pre-heat oven to 350*
Put meat & onion in skillet to brown lightly. Onion will add moisture to
the lean meat since the fat content is low in bison. As it browns add the
desired amounts of the spices so it cooks in well. DO NOT OVER COOK!!
Just before browning is complete, add Rotel, corn & beans. Then simmer
while preparing the corn bread.
Mix corn bread, eggs, milk & syrup.
Put cooked meat mixture into lg. glass/corning ware baking pan.( 10X12 or
9X13 )
Add cornbread mixture to the top.
Bake at 350* for approx. 20 min or until cornbread is done.

1 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoon paprika
3 cl garlic
1 fresh lime
Recipe by: Wayne Preston Allen. I found the bison at a health food
store - that's a good bet for you, too. The New Mexico chili powder
might be had from one of a number of mail-order resources if you
don't have a local source. The Rotel tomatoes are hot, so you can
substitute regular tomatoes to cool it a little (but it's gonna be
hot anyway!)
Brown the bison meat. Bison is lean and clumpy, so add a little oil
and break it up as you brown it. Add finely chopped onions and
garlic. When onions are clear, add tomatoes and spices. Add water to
barely cover, and simmer until meat is tender. Add chopped poblanos
for last 20 minutes of simmer, and stir in lime juice before serving.
You're really gonna be surprised!

BUFFALO JOE
Brush 3/4 of the oil on a plate and sprinkle 1/3 of the salt and 1/3
of the pepper over the oil. Rub the steak through the seasoned oil on
both sides.
Heat a large, high sided skillet over high heat until it’s very hot.
Brown the meat for 2 minutes on each side and remove from the pan.
Turn the heat down to medium, pour in the remaining oil and cook the
onion until it begins to wilt, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic, cook
for 1 minute, then add the rest of the chopped vegetables. Sprinkle
with the spice mix, the remaining salt, the remaining pepper, and the
wild mushroom powder. Stir the seasonings into the vegetables and cook
for 2 minutes.
Cut the browned meat into 2 inch (5 cm) chunks and drop into a food
processor. Pulse a few times to chop the meat coarsely, as it is very
tender and doesn't need to be finely ground. Add the chopped meat to
the simmering vegetables and cook for 5 minutes.
Pour in the tomato sauce, wine, tamari, and slurry, and bring back to
a boil. Turn the heat down to simmer to keep warm.

Place the packing milk and the mozzarella cheese balls into a large bowl on
top of a pan of simmering water (double boiler) to heat (melt/soften).
While the cheese heating seed and chop (mince or dice) the Kalamata Olives
and set aside. Drain the oil from the sundried tomatoes and process with
the garlic and balsamic vinegar to a fine mince and set aside. Chiffanade
or mince the basil leaves and set aside.
Watch the mozzarella as it heats and cut the softened pieces with a wooden
spatula to expose the still cool centers of the balls, and turn or fold.
The object is to heat all the cheese to a very soft consistency but not
fully melted. I estimate this was about 160 to 170 degrees.
When the cheese is soft and there are no hard clumps pour off as much milk
as possible, and pour the cheese into the parchment lined jelly roll pan.
Put another piece of paper on the top and roll out with the rolling pin or
press with your palm to an even thickness about 1/8 to 1/4 inch. If you
have to, pour off any excess milk.
At this point you need to work quickly - with a pastry spreader or spatula
spread the garlic-tomato mixture, leaving about 2 inch on the end without
the mixture, sprinkle the olives and the basil over the tomato mixture and
give it a nice grind of pepper. Pull up the end of the parchment paper and
begin rolling the cheese into a log (I roll from the longest side). Roll as
tightly as possible and mold (squeeze) the ends shut. (more milk or oil
may run out).
Place the roll seam side down, cover with plastic and store in the fridge
overnight on the jelly roll pan. You want to keep it on a flat surface.
When fully set slice into 1/2 inch slices and serve. Remember this is a
soft cheese and you will need a very sharp knife.
Caution this log will be somewhat soft just as the cheese is. If you are
transporting it wrap it in double foil as it is delicate.
NOTE:
Since the recipe called for a spread of tomatoes and garlic, then spreading
chopped olives and basil over the tomato mixture, I decided for
Page 271
convenience to mix all those ingredients into a single (quite thick) paste,
which I then spread over the cheese. I called this mix a tomato and olive
pesto, cause I thought most folks would understand that easily enough.
As for heating the cheeze, I used a probe thermometer, and when the cheese
mixture was about 145 to 148F, I figured it was ready to spread. This was
just about the edge my ability to withstand the heat on my fingers (as I
had my fingers in the bowl with the cheese and milk, trying to find any
cold lumps of cheese).
Because there is some concern about having to work fast when rolling the
cheese, I put the jelly roll pan into a 200F oven while the cheese was
melting, so when I rolled it out, it wasn't on a cold pan. I think this
helped quite a bit, as I didn't have any problem with the cheese getting to
firm while rolling. My main issue was getting the cheese in a even
thickness, as I ended up with a couple of thin spots, but proceeded with
spreading the 'pesto' mixture anyway.

BUFFALO STEW
SERVES 6-8
The great move to the frontier practically wiped out the buffalo.
However, the animals have been saved from extinction and are now being
farm-raised for food. Isn't that an interesting turn of events?
Lightly salt and pepper the meat. Heat a large Dutch oven and add
the oil. In two different batches, brown the meat on all sides. Add
the remaining ingredients to the pan and stir well. Cook slowly,
covered, over low heat.
A good gravy should form in this dish. If you wish more gravy,
Lorraine suggests you add a bit of water and some water-flour mixture
for thickening. If the color ofthe gravy is too light, add some
Kitchen Bouquet to taste.
Cover the meat and bake at 325ø for 1-1/2 hours, or until tender.
Serve this with Bacon Corn Bread and Creamed Cornmeal Timbales (see
recipes). They wouldn't have had timbales on the trail, but they sure
are good with this stew.

BURNETTS WOODCOCK
First make the potatoes, mash them and let them dry well. Beat the egg
whites very stiffly but not dry. Mix the egg yolk and capers and
cream into the mash and fold in the egg whites. Form small cakes and
fry in the butter until brown.
Spread each woodcock generously with butter and cover with a bacon
rasher. Roast in a preheated very hot oven at 220 deg C for 10-15
minutes, depending on how you like them, more if you must.
For the sauce, saute the livers in butter until just cooked, mash and
sieve them. Put the purJe in a pan, thin with white wine and stock,
add juniper berries, seasoning and lemon juice, and simmer for a few
minutes.
Place the cooked woodcock on the potato cakes and serve with the
sauce.

BUTCHERING VENISON
1 text file
At this point you have the dish tubs with two hind quaters ( hams or
haunches) which I usually roast whole for a festive meal, two shoulder
roasts which can be roasted whole, but is better when cut up
(remember to save those bones for the stockpot!) and turned into
chili or whatever happens to be your favorite stew, two racks of
venison ribs, two backstraps which make wonderful grill fare, two
tenderloins for steaking, the brisket for jerky, and whatever scraps
you may accumulate here and there for sausage. You also have a
rosting pan with the four shanks, the spine and other large bones.
All of this is then taken into the kitchen for a thorough washing in
cold water, and trimmed of any (and all!) bloodshot meat. At this
point, the meat is wrapped, marked, and dated, and *then* popped into
the freezer. The stock materials are thoroughly dried with towels,
returned to the roasting pan and browned in a very hot oven,
preparatory to making a rich brown stock which becomes the basis for
sauces, gravies, and stews. Just follow any recipe you may have for
brown beef stock, and when finished, freeze that as well in two-cup
quanities.
The only remaining task is to saw off the top section of the skull to
claim your rack, and clean up. The whole task doesn't take a hell of
a lot longer than I've described and you will have done it yourself!
In the off chance that you do take the buck of the century, you may
want to consider professional butchering as he will have the
necessary power tools to provide you with large steaks from the round
and an assortment of loin chops, but even then make sure you retain
at least one of the haunches whole for a crowd pleasing feast of
roast venison.

CACTUS STEW
Use a sharp paring knife to slice off the spine nodes. Trim around the edge
of the paddle where the spines are closer together. It is not necessary to
peel the cactus, only to remove the nodes and spines on both sides. Trim
off
the blunt end where the paddle was cut from the plant. Cut the paddle into
1/4' strips about 2' long.
Bring 4 quarts water with 1 tablespoon salt, the onion, garlic, cilantro
and
tomatillo husks to a boil; drop in the cactus strips. (Tomatillo husks help
retain the bright green color of the cactus.) Blanch the cactus until just
crisp tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain strips in a colander and rinse
with cool water.
Place the meat in a pot with 3 cups of water. Simmer, covered, until the
water is just about gone. Drain off the fat. To the drained meat, add
minced
garlic, the red chile sauce and spices. Simmer about 30 minutes. Taste and
adjust salt as needed, then stir in the drained nopalitos. Simmer for 20
minutes. Blend the masa harina and water to make a paste; whisk it into the
stew for a thickener. Simmer 5 minutes longer, then stir in the cilantro.
If
you like a spicy stew, add the japones chile. Serve in bowls accompanied by
warm tortillas.

Serving Suggestions: Lead off dinner with Smoked Spud Skins, hot from
the smoke. Then serve the rabbit with lightly buttered noodles,
Killed Salad, Squash Relish, and, for good measure, Peanut butter
Cake.
BBQ Tips: The funcution of the cheesecloth in the Ragin' Rabbit and
other recipes is to keep lean meat moist durring its slow smoking.
You can skip the wrapping in smokers designed for moist cooking, such
as water smokers and Cookshack ovens. Directions: About 2 to 3 hours
befor you plan to barbecue, combine the dry rub ingredients in a
small bowl. Massage the meat lightly with oil and mustard and
sprinkle evenly with the dry rub. Place the meat in a shallow glass
ovenproff or other smoke proff dish, cover it, and refrigerate it.
Remove the rabbit from the refrigerator and let it sit in the dish,
covered, at room tempture for 30 to 30 minutes. Cur a yard-long
section of cheesecloth and dampen it thoroughtly with water. Uncover
the dish and drape the top of it loosely with several thicknesses of
forled chesecloth.

Cook the mushrooms: Carefully remove any dirt from the chanterelles
with a soft-bristled brush. Melt butter in a 12 inch skillet over low
heat. Add the mushrooms, salt, and a few grindings of black pepper.
Toss to coat the mushrooms with the butter and cover the pan. Cook
slowly, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender but
have a slightly firmness, about 15 minutes. Stir in shallot and
tarragon. Cook, covered, 5 more minutes. The mushrooms should be
lightly browned with no juice remaining in the pan. Pat the caribou
steaks with paper towels. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet
over medium high heat, add the steaks and cook 2 minutes on each side
for medium rare. Transfer to a plate; cover and keep warm. Pour off
fat in the skillet and return to the pan to medium high heat. Add the
butter, and after it has melted, stir in the chanterelles. When the
mushrooms are hot, pour in the stock and vermouth. Cook at a brisk
boil, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has reduced by half and
is syrupy. Add the cream, salt, and pepper, and continue reducing for
several minutes until the sauce has thickened and coats a metal
spoon. Stir in the lemon juice. Stir in the tarragon and return the
steaks back to the pan. Cook briefly just to heat through, while
spooning the sauce and mushrooms over the meat. Serve immediately.

The prunes and pickled walnuts provide just the sweet and sharp
contrast that complements the flavour of venison so well.
Put the flour, salt and a good grinding of pepper into a bowl. Toss
the pieces of venison in the seasoned flour to coat. Heat the oil in
a heavy flameproof casserole and brown the meat, a few pieces at a
time; remove the browned meat and keep it warm while you brown the
rest. When all the meat is browned, add the onions to the casserole
and cook them until they are soft and translucent, 5-10 minutes. Stir
in the wine and water, scraping the bits off the bottom of the
casserole with a wooden spoon. When the liquid is simmering. replace
the browned meat in the casserole, and stir in the pickled walnuts
and prunes.
Cover the casserole with a lid, and cook in a preheated moderate
oven (350oF / 180oC / gas 4) for an hour. Let the casserole cool
completely, then store in the refrigerator overnight. Cook it for a
further hour at the same temperature before serving. All stews and
casseroles benefit in flavour from reheating. "Lady MacDonald's

10 dove breasts
1 juice from 1/2 lemon
1 salt
1 pepper
1 rib celery
1/2 lb mushrooms (that's one half
1 pound)
4 scallions (green onions)
3 tablespoon butter
1/4 teaspoon tarragon
1/2 cup white wine
1 1/2 cup chicken stock (that's one
1 and one half cups)
2/3 cup wild rice (that's two thirds
1 cup)
I tried a new dove recipe this past weekend and thought I would pass
it along. This has to be one of the best recipes for doves I have
ever used.
Rinse the wild rice, drain, and set aside. Skin the dove breasts,
wipe with lemon juice, and salt and pepper the breasts. Chop the
mushrooms, scallions and celery. Sautee them in the butter lightly
(3-5 minutes). Put the wild rice in the bottom of a casserole dish.
Arrange the dove breasts on top of the wild rice. Pour celery,
mushroom, and scallion mixture over doves. Add rest of ingredients
(tarragon, white wine, and chicken stock). Place the dish, covered,
in a 325 degree preheated oven and let cook for one and one half to
one and three quarter hours (90 - 105 minutes).
Keith
Pluck and draw the dove and use the back, leg and thigh too. In a
roasting pan, baste the little babies with chicken or duck fat
(butter will do in a pinch but be liberal with the fat so the birds
remain moist). pre-heat the oven to 300 degrees and roast them. Baste
every 20 minutes and check to see if they're done everytime you go to
baste (you can tell by proding at the breast meat with a fork. If it
pulls away from the sternum fairly easily then it is done. It's best
to undercook slightly at this point because you will be cooking them
again with the rice). Now take and pull the meat from the birds and
set aside. Take the remaining bones and put into a stock pot and
cover with cold water until about two inches above the bones. Add a
quartered onion to the pot along with a bulb of garlic (around 8
cloves - cut in half and use germ too). Add a carrot (broken into two
or three pieces). Bring the stock to a boil and reduce heat to low
and let slowly simmer for two hours minimum (I'd suggest 4 hours).
Page 320
Add water if it drops below the bones. Substitute dove stock for the
chicken stock below.
Now take the pan drippings from the roaster and pour into a skillet
(add duck/chicken fat or butter until you have about 3 or 4
tablespoons of fat (total) in the skillet. Saute chopped veggies in
this mixture. Add wild rice to the skillet and coat well with the fat
(stir for about 3 minutes). Now add the dove stock (see amount below)
directly to the skillet and bring to a simmer for 3 or 4 minutes. Now
add to the casserole dish along with the meat, wine (see amount
below) and tarragon (personally, I'd use sage here but it's because I
hate tarragon). The cooking times listed below will need to change
for this recipe as well. Cover dish and bake at 350 degrees for 45
minutes.

First take the butter and soften it in a bowl with a spoon. Add the
oysters, lemon zest and thyme. Season with a little black pepper. Now
pop the butter on top of some cling film. Spread it lengthways and
then roll it like a cigar. Seal at both ends by twisting the cling
film and then place in the freezer until firm. (Not too long as you
don't want it frozen.)
Season both the fillets with black pepper and heat a chargrill pan
(or you can use the BBQ) until very hot. Rub the steak with some oil
and then put into the pan. Turn the heat down slightly so you don't
cremate the steak! Once seared on one side turn over and repeat on
the other. Then turn once more on each side until the steak is
medium. Kangaroo is much better medium rare, otherwise it can be
stringy. Medium is firm, yet still springy to the touch.
Once cooked, place on a serving dish, then take out the butter from
the fridge. Unwrap the clingfilm and slice the butter evenly. Place
as many of the discs as you want on top of the steak to melt in.
Garnish with fresh herbs and flowers.

TECHNIQUE:
There are steps to be taken for this seemingly simple pot of stew. It is
CRUCIAL that you fabricate your pork shoulder and cut the meat off the bone
producing 1/2 inch “steaks”. There is a bone deep inside the meat of the
pork shoulder. This bone must be removed, reserved and put into a small pot
with salt, ground pepper, and 1/4 cup diced onion. Allow this to come to a
boil and then reduce to a slight rolling boil until ALL your prep is
complete.
Use hands and mix the marinate and pork well.
Sweat onions until translucent and tender. At that point add the garlic and
continue to sweat until fragrant. Quickly add Paprika, cumin, chili powder
(1 tsb. ea.) and half of the tomato product. Do not caramelize or brown
the onions/garlic.
Add the charred, diced pork and one 4 oz. Can of diced green chilies allow
Page 332
to slightly cook. Add the Pork shoulder bone broth to cover the meat and
simmer an hour and a half until the meat is almost tender. At this point
add the White Hominy, green chili and remainder of spices. Simmer for 30-40
minutes.
Finish with salt, pepper, lime and chopped cilantro. (Serve with tortillas
or Frybread.)
TOTAL COOKING TIME AND PREP 2 HOURS.
Production Notes:
It is important that you fabricate, marinate and char your pork first.
Remove the shoulder bone brown in the oven or in a sauté pan and cover with
water for you broth. This will save you time and allow the cooking
preparation process to go smoothly. Char, dice and set aside while you chop
garlic onions and measure dry spices.
Gather all items and prepare to cook.
Yield: 15 easily.
CHARRO BEANS
Sort beans. Place beans in bowl, cover with water and soak overnight.
Discard water. Place beans in a large pot and add 8 C water. Simmer
partially
covered for 1 hour.
Cook bacon until crisp. Add bacon and 2 T of the drippings to the beans.
Chop tomatoes and add to the beans.
Add onions, garlic, chilies, cili powder, oregano and cumin.
Simmer partially covered for three hours, or until beans are tender. Turn
off heat and add beer. Season with salt to taste. Garnish with oregano and
lime wedges.

Mix all together. Fry in pan for breakfast sausage, good on pizza, and

4 lb roasting chicken
4 cup hot chicken stock, or more
1 if needed
3/4 cup pumpkin seeds
8 black peppercorns
1/8 teaspoon cumin seeds
3 tomatillos or green
1 tomatoes
4 hot green chilies (jalapeno
1 or serrano), roasted, peeled
1 seeded
4 green onions, with tops
2 cloves garlic, mashed
2 tablespoon chicken fat or lard
1 bunch young radish leaves or
1 mustard greens
2 large romaine lettuce leaves
4 sprigs fresh coriander
1 (cilantro)
Put whole chicken in a casserole, cover with the stock, and bring to a
simmer. Cover pot and poach chicken just below the simmering point
over very low heat or in a very low oven (275 degrees) for 1 hour.
Remove chicken from stock and let it cool enough to carve it.
Toast the pumpkin seeds together with the peppercorns and cumin in a
hot ungreased skillet about 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent
scorching. Put into a blender and grind fine.
Remove outer husks from the tomatillos, put them in a pan with cold
water to cover, and bring to a simmer. Simmer 10 minutes, drain, then
add them to the blender with 1/2 cup of their liquid and blend to a
smooth thick puree. Chop all the remaining ingredients and add them
to the blender. Add chicken stock, if needed, to thin the puree. Pour
sauce into the skillet and simmer about 10 minutes to evaporate some
of the liquid.
Carve chicken in 4 or more pieces and add to the sauce, coating the
pieces well. If possible,let chicken sit overnight in the sauce so
that the seasoning permeates and the hotness of the chili diminishes.
Reheat gently so that sauce does not boil. Serve hot or at room
temperature.
If the Indians of the Americas gave Spain its first turkey, Spain
gave the Indians their first domesticated chicken. The results of
such culinary crossing are birds of both kinds simmered in rich
sauces called mole. The word means a mixture of any kind, and one of
the best mixtures is made of Indian squash or pumpkin seeds to flavor
Spanish chicken. The sauce below would be called a green mole, or
Page 343
mole verde, because it has everything green about it: green pumpkin
seeds, green chilies, green Mexican tomatillos, and even radish and
romaine greens. The flavor is as gentle and unusual as the color.

Shake the rabbit in a paper bag with the flour, salt, and pepper.
Pick a heavy skillet (which some lid will fit) that, crowded, will
just hold the rabbit pieces. Melt the lard in it until hot, then turn
heat to medium, crowd in the rabbit pieces, and for the next 10 to 20
minutes stand over the skillet, turning and adjusting the pieces
until all sides are golden brown.
As you brown the pieces, their floured surfaces may absorb enough fat
to require more lard; add as needed.
Now, turn heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer for 12 minutes
or so. Turn the pieces, if need be, during this process.
Turn heat to medium or medium high, remove lid, and turning the
pieces when needed, evaporate the moisture for another 10 minutes or
so.
Off heat, stir in the milk, then back on low heat cook until it
starts to thicken. Stir in the cream and continue to heat but do not

other powdered chiles will add a depth of character to game and heat,
but the flavour is tough to preserve opposite the strong meat
flavour(s).
jalapenos (fresh) can be used when preparing roasts and the like. the
heat will bake out of the peppers slowly, as will the flavour, and be
transfered to the game. if you like the flavour of jala's, nothing
has a better flavour than slow-roasted duck with jalapenos, onions
and garlic that roasted with it!

Rice and peas (or beans) is a very popular dish throughout the
Caribbean, and perhaps because eating rice with hot foods helps to
tame the fire. (Not this rice!) The peas used in this recipe are
called pigeon or gungo peas. They are about the size of garden peas
and are usually found dried. However, cooked, canned pigeon peas are
also available. If they are not available in your area, black-eyed
peas or kidney beans can be substituted. (Not the same, however)
Heat the oil in a deep frying pan over high heat. Add the rice, and
continue saute until the rice turns opaque and golden brown. Add the
chile, garlic, and onion and saute for a few more minutes. Beware the
fumes!!! Be careful not to let the rice brown or over brown.
Stir the peas in with the rice. Do not stir again during cooking!
Combine the coconut milk with the bean liquid. Add water to make 4
cups of liquid. dd to the rice and bring to a boil. Immediately
reduce the heat to simmer.
Cook uncovered until the liquid is slightly below the surface of the
rice and holes form in the rice. Cover the pot and cook for 20 to 25
minutes or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender. Allow
to sit covered for another 1/2 hour.

CHILI MOOSE
Place all ingredients in a slow cooker and cook on "low" for 10 hours
("High" for 5 hours). If using canned beans, drain the liquid before
adding them. Can be served over slices of whole-wheat bread.

Here's an easy winter warm-me-up meal. The flavorful corn dumplings cook
right on top of the simmering chili.
1.
Cook beef and onion in Dutch oven over medium heat, stirring occasionally,
until beef is brown; drain. Reserve 1/2 cup of the corn. Stir remaining
corn
with liquid, tomatoes, tomato sauce, chili powder and pepper sauce into
beef
mixture. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 15 minutes.
2.
Mix Bisquick mix and cornmeal. Stir in milk, cilantro and reserved 1/2 cup
corn just until moistened.
3.
Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto simmering chili. Cook uncovered
over low heat 10 minutes. Cover and cook 10 minutes longer or until
dumplings
are dry.
Variation
Vary the heat level in chili by adding more or less chili powder or red
pepper sauce. Also, try different brands of red pepper sauce because each
has its
own unique flavor and 'kick.'

"It's sweeter than even farmed venison and more tender than buffalo,"
said Joseph Wrede, the chef and owner of Joseph's Table, a restaurant
in Taos, N.M., that is in the process of moving elsewhere in town. He
serves cubed yak meat in a savory stew with aromatic vegetables, and
"yakballs" in a heady red-wine sauce, atop pappardelle pasta or
simmered in a chili. "We sell a lot of it," he said. "The people who
are brave enough to try it really get into yak."
YAK meat is sold by the following producers, who say they prefer to
take orders by mail or on the Internet rather than by telephone.

Skin, eviscerate, and disjoint the animals, making sure to remove the
small scent sacs from beneath the forelegs. If these glands are not
removed, a bitter taste will be imparted to the dish. Soak the
pieces for one hour in cold water to which 1 teaspoon salt has been
added. Remove, drain, and pat dry.
Roll the pieces in flour seasoned with salt, pepper, sage and
rosemary. (Prepared poultry seasoning is a good substitute.) Heat
the bacon fat in a deep skillet and brown the pieces on all sides.
Add the cider and simmer until the meat is almost tender.
Remove the cover and continue cooking until the meat is tender and
most of the liquid absorbed. Remove the cooked pieces and put aside
to cool. Reserve any pan liquids for the gravy.
Roll the pieces in the seasoned flour again, heat the butter in
another skillet, and rebrown the meat until golden and crisp.
Put the pieces on a heated platter, and keep warm, while you add all
juices and scrapings to the skillet. Make a paste of a tablespoon of
flour and the heavy cream. Pour this slowly into the pan juices,
stirring constantly, until the sauce is smooth, hot, and slightly
thick. Ladle the gravy over the meat and serve.

Rabbit Stew with Red Wine. A French civet is normally a winter dish
made with hare. It is cooked in red wine and the sauce is
traditionally thickened with the animal's blood, which gives the civet
its characteristic colour and taste. A simpler year-round civet can be
made with rabbit, marinated overnight in an aromatic mixture of wine,
garlic and peppercorns. Even without the blood, this stew has a mildly
gamey taste and is best served with a rich red wine either from
Burgundy or the Cotes du Rhone.

This recipe comes from Colombia in South America. Rabbit meat is very
low in fat and can be dry tasting, so it marries well with coconut
cream. It is best to cook the rabbit gently till it is falling off
the bone.
Chop a rabbit into serving pieces. Chop finely one large onion and 2
cloves of garlic. Seed and slice a large green capsicum, half a
large red capsicum and finely slice 3 birdseye chillies (decrease the
quantity and discard the seeds if you can't cope with too much chilli
heat). Peel and chop a large tomato and have ready 400 ml strong veal
or chicken stock and 150 ml coconut cream.
Heat a little oil in a frying pan and brown the rabbit pieces.
Transfer them to a large saucepan. In the remaining oil in the

4 slice bacon
3 garlic cloves, peeled
6 sage leaves, fresh or 1 tablespoon; dried
2 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 lb rabbit, dressed, in 8 pieces
1 salt
1 pepper to taste
1 flour for dredging
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1 cup dry white wine
Chop the bacon, garlic and sage very fine, to paste consistancy. (If
using a blender or processor, add 1 or 2 tablespoons of the stock.)
Heat the vegetable oil in a large casserole, meanwhile seasoning the
rabbit parts with salt and pepper and dredging them lightly in flour,
shaking off the excess. Add the rabbit to the casserole and cook over
high heat, turning it until browned, about 3 minutes on per side.
Discard the oil from the casserole. Add the bacon mixture, and return
to the heat, cooking 3 minutes and stirring occasionally. Add the
Balsamic vinegar and white wine, and simmer 5 minutes. Add 1 cup of
the stock, salt and pepper to taste, and cover the casserole. Simmer
until the rabbit is tender, about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally
and adding the remaining stock gradually, as needed, to keep the meat
moist. Transfer the rabbit pieces to a large serving dish and strain
the sauce, which should be thick, over them. If the sauce is thin,
quickly reduce it over high heat.

Place the rabbit in a bowl of cold water with the vinegar and soak it
for half an hour. (If using chicken instead, omit this step). Cut
pancetta or prosciutto into very small pieces and finely chop the
rosemary and combine them, or even better, coarsely grind pancetta
and rosemary together.
Place a casserole with the butter and oil over medium heat and when
the oil is warm, add the pancetta/rosemary mixture and the bay leaves
to saute for 2 minutes. Meanwhile, quickly drain the rabbit
pieces, pat them dry with paper towels, and add them to the
casserole. Let them saute all over until very lightly golden.
Season with salt and pepper. Add the broth, a small quantity at a
time, turning the rabbit over several times, and cook until soft,
about 25 minutes for a 2 pound rabbit.
As the rabbit cooks, prepare the peppers - Warm the butter with the
oil in a saucepan over low heat, then add the anchovies and mash
them with a fork. Be sure the heat remains constantly low, so the
Page 395
anchovies do not crumble and become very fishy. Put in the peppers
and saute for 5 minutes. Raise heat, add 1/2 cup of cold water,
and cook the peppers for 5 minutes more; at that point, the peppers
should be half-cooked. Add the garlic, parsley and vinegar and let
the vinegar evaporate for 5 minutes. Taste for salt and pepper.
Transfer contents of saucepan to the casserole containing the not
yet completely cooked rabbit and mix well. Cook until the rabbit is
done. The peppers will be overcooked and form a chunky sauce. Discard
bay leaves and transfer everything to a serving platter.

You can do anything with venison that you would beef. Just remember
that it is drier- less fat, so steaks should be
marinaded/tenderized/pounded and cooked just to medium, not over-done.
1- Age and sex of animal. Meat can be as tender and mild as veal in a
young doe. (And you always get steer meat in a store never bull.
Castration does make a difference.)
If you know where your meat came from, you will know whether it should
tenderized or just cooked.
If your steaks are coming from a commercial game farm, they will be
from a young animal, carefully slaughtered and aged. I would treat
them the same as any prime beef T-bone. Probably charcoal BBQ'd or
gas grilled to just medium rare and sprinkled with a little salt and
pepper AFTER it has been cooked... nothing fancy, no marinades and no
strong BBQ sauces. That way you will be able to truly taste the
venison.
For wild meat you may want to marinade first, if it's tough.
**** For extremely gamy meat, try soaking the meat in water for
several hours to remove any blood, then soak in salted water for
Page 399
several hours and thirdly soak the drained meat in milk overnight.
This helps remove strong odors. [I use skim milk made from powder,
about half strength for economy.]
After this treatment most meat is quite edible regardless of its age
and handling. At the very least it can be ground and used in spicy
spaghetti sauces and chili.

1 duck
Wild duck has a robust flavour that can cope with the most aggressive
ingredients, writes Rowley Leigh. In fact, a mallard or teal will take
to chilli, anchovies and curry spices in the same way it once took to
water
My own preference would be to brush them with butter and roast them
in a hot oven for 15 minutes, then give them ten minutes' rest before
serving. To cook them for much longer than this would not only rob
them of their juiciness but toughen the already resistant legs to an
Page 403
unacceptable degree.
Apart from Paul Bocuse's litany of fruit there have been plenty of
imaginative treatments for wild duck in the recent past: it is, after
all, a robust flavour that will cope very well with aggressive
flavourings. None more so than the combination of pineapple, sweet
potato and chilli with wild duck dreamt up by my friend Richard
Corrigan, chef and proprietor of the Lindsay House in Soho. It sounds
crazy, I know, but in the hands of that gentle genius it is a triumph.
And those of you with bottles of raspberry vinegar ashamedly hidden at
the back of the store cupboard should get them out now: a few drops of
that vinegar on some browned, sliced shallots and then moistened with
red wine makes a brilliant base for a sauce for wild duck. After
roasting the bird, let it rest while you deglaze the pan with more red
wine and a little chicken stock: let this reduce a little and then
pour it into the shallot base together with any juices drawn from the
bird while it has rested.
Wild duck covers a variety of flappers and waders, the most common of
which, comestibly speaking, are mallard, widgeon and teal. If you see
a wild duck on a supermarket shelf or a restaurant menu, the chances
are that it is mallard, our familiar green-necked friend that civil
servants pop out to St James's Park to feed in their lunch hour.
Widgeon is occasionally seen but I have no fondness for its lean form
and fishy flavour and do not intend to discuss it further. Teal, on
the other hand, has a wonderful, rich and gamey flavour; its only
drawback is that it is very small and expensive.
As one mallard will only serve two (though most people can happily
manage two teal), this week's recipes are for two people.

There are many great flavors to be had from the wild. I've learned
that many wild herbs have a very unique and pleasant taste. I use
them regularly in my kitchen for spices, garnish, appetizers, snacks,
and even as main dishes. One of my favorites is mint jelly, so good
and easy to make but hard to keep around. Ever had mint jelly on a
hot buttered biscuit, or a favorite for kids mint jelly and peanut
butter sandwiches, for some hors d'oeuvres try mint jelly and cream
cheese finger sandwiches. Substituting some of the everyday culinary
spices with wild herb spices can be tricky but some are
indistinguishable and did I mention the best thing about using wild
herbs? They're FREE! Yarrow for instance, when dried taste like sage,
dried and ground toothwort like black pepper or crushed fresh it
taste exactly like horse radish, dried and ground Sweet Cicly root
like fennel seed has an Anise like flavor for pizza, spaghetti sauce
and other Italian type dishes. Wild garlic or Bear's garlic is as
good as cultivated and is said by some to be better. Mountain mint is
a good substitute for basil, in fact one of its common names is wild
basil. Wild Bergamot can be used as oregano but is a bit spicy so use
less. Wild Ginger is another favorite of mine, the root crushed and
saut‚ed in butter then thickened with corn starch or flour water,
makes a fine sauce for chicken. Wild Ginger and Sweet Cicly roots are
good crystallized in sugar, they make great treats and freshen
breath, and I can't help but mention how wonderful they work when you
have a sore throat or cough. There are so many wild herbs available
for cooking as pot herbs it would be hard to mention them all, but a
few excellent choices are Wild Mustard greens, Dandelion, and Lamb's
quarters. Each is good alone, but I like to mix the three and always
remember to blanch with two changes of water, also season with
bouillon or meat drippings. If you like home made bread and who
doesn't, try throwing in some wild herbs and you have herb bread,
very aromatic and delicious. I've just recently discovered that
several types of Avens roots, Water avens and White avens among them,
are used as chocolate substitutes and are actually called Indian
chocolate, I intend to try them this year when they bloom. A good
book I would recommend for learning more about using wild herbs in
cooking is The Complete Book of Herbs by Lesley Bremness, just
looking at the photos will make your mouth water. Recipes

Season rabbit with salt & pepper. Mix oil, wine and season salt. Broil
rabbit, basting often with sauce until browned and tender.
This is our favorite way to cook rabbit. I have been known to add a

Originally an American Indian dish called 'corn pone' and made with
cornmeal, salt and water, this recipe has been a staple of American cooking
to this day.
1. Pour butter or bacon fat into a skillet and place in 450°F oven to heat
up. Combine cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Beat egg in milk, combine
with dry ingredients, pour into skillet, and bake for 20-25 minutes.

CORN SOUP 1,
This is another one where there's a million recipes, plus the fact you can
throw in whatever you have on hand.
Cut pork into 1/2-inch dice, try out. Add onion, cook slowly 5-10 minutes,
stirring, until transparent but not bfowned. Add potatoes, corn, boiling
water, hnot milk. Season to taste, serve with garnish. Other things to
throw into this soup: cooked carrots, rutabagas, turnips, leftover beans,
canned tomatoes. Leftover ham, chopped. Use a broth made from any bones
instead of water. To make a thicker chowder, make a roux of 2 Tbs butter
and 2 of flour, frizzled, stir this into 1 cup of the milk, cook and stir
until thickened. Stir this white sauce into the rest of the liquid as you
add it to the vegetables. Like most soups and stews, corn soup is mostly an
idea rather than a recipe. What you put in it depends on what you have.
CORN STEW
In heavy pot brown bacon, add onion and sweat til barely
translucent. Add beans and corn and 1/4 cup water (omit if using
frozen), cover and cook at least 1/2 hour on medium-low. Add salt and
pepper after about 10 minutes of cooking time. My grandmother used to
cook it for hours, so it's basically up to you how done you want it, I
prefer mine fresher tasting. You can also have a little dish of
chopped Thyme at the table to sprinkle. This has been part of our
Thanksgiving meal for as long as I can remember.

Here's the recipe my friend George used this year to corn venison. It

about 35 pounds. He used one hind quarter from a 9 pointer from last
year and a couple front shoulders from other deer. You can put the
shoulders in whole and just pull out the bone after it's done. I
don't believe he did the glazing in the oven part of it, just served

Mix the honey, thyme and dill in a flat dish and put in the cutlets,
so they are covered. Marinate, covered, in the fridge for 24 hours.
Take the cutlets out of the marinade, letting the excess drip off.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and sauti the cutlets so that they are
golden outside, but still a little pink inside - rosy juices will run
if the meat is pierced with a knife. Remove the meat and keep warm.
Add the sherry vinegar and water to the cooking juices and bring to a
boil and add the creme fraiche or sour cream then reduce a little to
make a sauce.
Peel the chestnuts, taking care to remove the thick furry skin under
the shell. Heat the oil and fry the chestnuts like french fries till
they're golden. Drain on kitchen paper. Wash the cabbage leaves and
put them in an oven dish. Place a few chestnuts on each one, and
close them tight to make little parcels, and add the creme fraiche
and water, salt and pepper. Cover and place in a hot oven (220 C, 425

another one that i just made up one day, so please accept the
vagueness works with whole ducks, part ducks, whole geese, or part
geese...
measure out about two cups of good red wine... drink one...
pour the other cup into a slow cooker of pressure cooker on *LOW*...
get three-ten apples, eat one or two and dice the rest... probably
core them, but peeling is optional...
place the apples in the wine and then dump in your meat...
if the ducks/geese are whole, you might consider putting most of the
apples inside them (assuming you believe in gutting your fowl and not
cooking guts together with the bird...if you do, i take no
responsibility for this recipe...legally, morally, or gastronomically)
if the meat and apples aren't mostly covered, pour enough wine into
the mixture to bring them up to about 3/4 covered...if you just
happen to not have much wine left in the bottle, finish it yourself,
because a good red wine shouldn't sit around very long, nor should
you have to share it since you are going to all this trouble doing
the cooking...
cover and simmer until the meat is almost falling off the bones (if
you took the bones out, i'll leave it to you to define tender)...
this is one of those things you can do in the morning and have ready
when you come back from work, and also have the advantage of having
all the people in the house go nuts smelling the good cooking
smells...
and if you do this before you go to work, the wine should help start
your day pretty well too...
now...if i can't start a flame war of some sort with this post, we
all must be too busy hunting to care....

1 plaintains, late dandelion
1 greens
Crock a venison with 1 cup of hearty red wine. I use burgundy. You can
do a pot roast this way or stew meat. The wine cuts the gamey flavor
for those who don't like venison. I generally put the meat on the
bottom with the wine and add a ton of root veggies around to make a
stew - quartered onions, potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots. I reckon
you could use turnips and parsnips, but I am not found of 'nips in
general. Longer cooking greens could be added too - plaintains, late
dandelion greens. Optional of course, most greens would tend to just
add to the juices/gravy when you are done crocking.

I did okay until you got to the *enjoy* part. That means you actually

sauerkraut. Now let me get this straight: (a) cow dies of old age,
falls over and swells up, (b) possum crawls inside cow and devours
insides, (3) possum walks across hiway and gets smashed flat by car,
(4) crow flies down and eats possum. Now, if I understand this
correctly, you are advocating that I actually, physically eat the
crow? Nope. When I eat crow, I do it with a dozen roses and three
days of prostrate groveling, and it's going to stay that way.

DANDELION SALAD
1/2 c. cream
1/4 butter
2 eggs
paprika
1 tb sugar
pepper
1 tsp. salt
4 tb vinegar
4 slices bacon
1 c. dandelions
1 venison
1 top round steak
1 turkey breast - brine
1 kiln dried medium salt
1 molasses (brer rabbit light
1 black and/or red pepper
Recipe by: Dan Sawyer <dan813@aone.com> The Meat: Generally, the lean
scraps from most venison (elk, deer, caribou, antelope and moose)
work very good. Bear is greasy(sorry Bear), as is pork Buffalo is
similar to beef and makes good jerky. The best cut of beef that will
yield the most usable lean meat is the top round. If you like
turkey, use large bone in breasts and remove the bone. I haven't
done reptiles, but what the hey, if that's your bag give it a shot.
The meat should be reasonably aged, at least kept cool for a week or
so after it's dressed out and skinned. It is important to trim as
much fat off as possible, even if you have to cut it out or scrape it
off. The fat will not take salt very well when the meat brines, it
will become rancid and grow mold quickly. Cut the meat with the
grain, into strips as big around as your thumb (3/4-1 square) and as
long as possible.
The Brine: This is a self brining method and works in two stages,
dehydration and rehydration. The ingredients needed are: A kiln dried
medium salt. Most feed stores have 50# bags for about $3. which will
make about eight thousand pounds of jerky. Medium salt is about the
size of sal that comes on a pretzel. Molasses. I use Brer Rabbit
light or Grandma's. Brer Rabbit comes in pint bottles and have a
small top that you can pour a nice 'string' from. Grandma's comes in
a large mouth bottle and it's best if you transfer it to some sort of
a squeeze top ketchup or pancake syrup bottle (1 pint =3D about 20#
of meat). Black Pepper, medium grind or coarse - your choice. If you
like it hot, use red pepper flakes instead, if you don't like pepper
leave it out. This brine process goes easier and more quickly if you
have a few extra happy hands joining in - the kids, the wife and
myself usually make it a project and when it's done everyone gets to
pa each other on the back. Since we're all together and helping each
other, some interesting conversations usually surface. Anyway, you
will need a flat bottom non-corrosive container and lid, a Tupperware
storage bin, a plastic bus tray or a stainless steam table pan will
work well. The size depends on the amount of meat and the room in
your refer - the lids keep things out and are handy for stacking the
containers. Salt the bottom of the pan evenly, making sure to get in
the corners as well. This may not be as easy as it sounds. Put a few
pounds of salt in a bowl, cup your fingers together and scoop out
about a half a handful - not in your palm. Shake your hand back and
forth across the top and about a foot above the top of the pan. As
the salt starts to leave your hand, slowly open your fingers and let
the salt run through evenly. Hand salting may require some practice.
Practice salting the bottom of the pan until it becomes comfortable
and the coverage is without gobs or streaks or voids. If this method
becomes too frustrating, a shaker top jar works too - a mayonnaise
Page 451
jar with the metal lid poked full of holes by a 16 penny nail. The
coverage amount should be between light coverage (barely covering)
and full coverage (completely covering) - the only comparison I can
think of, is sugar on a pie crust, or, sugar on your cereal. You
don't want it too salty, so, one might consider their first batch of
jerky experimental and take it from there. String the molasses. Same
kinda deal as the salt, hold the bottle about a foot above the pan,
start moving it from side to side and pour. When the molasses starts
running try to get a 'string' about the size of a pencil lead and let
it crisscross the pan bottom over the salt. Once the strings are even
in one direction, change directions (perpendicular) and string evenly
across again. Don't forget the corners. When it's done it will be an
even grid about 1/2" square covering the pan bottom. Good luck...
don't worry, 10-12 layers and you'll be able to sign your name with
it. The pepper will vary as to individual taste. One note though,
pepper almost doubles its intensity as it soaks and is easy to
overpower the finished product. I would recommend that a light
dusting would be sufficient for most people (about the way you would
pepper a baked potato). Red pepper flakes, even more so. Again, hold
the pepper can about a foot above, and dust it evenly - good, you
remembered the corners. Layer the meat strips across the bottom of
the pan one at a time. Starting on one side, place the strips next
to each other without overlapping and with all of th strips running
in the same direction. Work the meat across until the layer is
complete, without voids. Pat the surface, edges and corners down
smooth and flat. Salt, molasses and pepper the surface as was done
to the bottom of the pan to start. The second layer of meat is done
the same, but it is ran perpendicular to the first layer. Pat
smooth, salt, molasses and pepper. Each additional layer is placed
perpendicular t the layer before it. Continue layering the meat
until it reaches to a level about 2" from the top of the pan. The
last layer, or partial layer, gets the salt, molasses and pepper
treatment as well. This brining method will cure the meat in two
days. Place the pan in the refer, cover and let sit undisturbed for
the first day (refrigeration is not necessary if prepared in a cool
climate 35-45F). After about 24 hours the meat should be 'turned

4 lb lean venison
2 cup seasoned flour
4 oz butter
1 lb mushrooms; cleaned and
1 sliced
1 cup chopped onion
1 large green pepper; chopped
1 (remove pith and seeds)
1 stock to cover
1 cup red wine
4 medium potatoes; cubed
4 carrots; thickly sliced
1 can whole-kernel corn
1 2 peeled, cored and sliced
1 apple (optional)
1 cup chopped celery (optional)
Cut venison into 1" cubes and dredge them in flour. In a heavy
kettle, melt butter and saute vegetables until golden.
Remove the vegetables from the pot and add the meat, searing it on all
sides. Add more butter, if necessary. Return the vegetables to the
pot, and add enough beef stock (or canned bouillon) to almost cover
the meat and vegetables. Let this simmer, covered, for about 2 hr.
Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil. Turn down the
heat and simmer until the vegetables are done.
A dash of herbs always helps, but this recipe has the object of
providing a tasty stew that retains the flavor of the venison without
killing it. When the stew is about done, add more seasoning, if
desired.

The night before you plan to barbecue, combine the paste ingredients
in a food processor or blender until the onion is finely chopped and
a thick puree forms. Slather the paste over the venison. Transfer
the venison to a large plastic bag and refrigerate it overnight.
Befor you begian to barbecue, take the roast from the refrigerator
and let it sit, covered, at room temperature for 45 minutes. Prepare
the smoker for barbecuing, bring the temperature to 200 F to 220 F.
If you plan to baste the meat, stir together the mop ingredients in a
small saucepan and warm over low heat. Never baste with a cold sauce
as it reduces the temperature of the meat. Transfer the roast to the
smoker and cook for 3 hours, mopping every 30 minutes in a
wood-burning pit, or as appropriate for your style of smoker. Place
the roast on a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil and pour the
tomatoes over the meat. Spoon the mustard and worcestershire sauce
over the tomatoes. Seal the foil tightly and continue cooking the
roast for about 2 more hours, until the meat is falling-apart tender.
Remove the roast from the smokerand let it sit at room temperature for
10 minutes befor serving.

DRESSING BEAVER
1 text file
Beaver meat is dark red, fine grained, moist and tender and when
properly prepared similar to roast pork.
Cut the head off and eviscerate: make a cut through the thin layer of
meat from the breast bone to the vent, encircling the vent and being
careful not to pierce the intestines. Lay the body cavity open and
remove the viscera by grasping above the stomach and pulling down and
out from the cavity. Carefully cut out the musk glands from under the
skin on the inside of the legs and be sure to remove the castor gland
under the belly near the tail. Trim off all the fat and wash the
carcass thoroughly with warm salted water.

take out and put heavy cord on one end and hang up and smoke for 1
day or at least several hours. Can go without smoke if you wish.
Hang to dry for a short while and then slice. This makes enough for
about a 2 to 3 gallon crockful.
Now for the way I did it the last time. I put the meat in Ziploc bags
instead of a crock and let it set in the refrigerator. This worked.

My mother used to skim off the fat from duck soup and keep it
in a jar. When she had enough, she would bake bannock with the duck
grease. The taste was soooo delicious and the hot bannock round
would disappear within minutes!

This past T-day I made a duck recipe out of the Native Peoples magazine.
It
comes from the Great Lakes region. Ojibwa legend gives credit to the duck
for bringing them wild rice. The story goes like this--One day as a
warrior
returned to camp, he found a duck sitting on the rim of his soup pot. As
the
startled duck flew away, it dropped some pieces of grain into the soup.
The
warrior ate the soup, and found that the grain was very good so the next
morning he went off in the direction that the duck had flown, finally
coming
to a lake where he found a flock of ducks. The ducks were feeding on the
water grass, which came to be known as manoomin, or 'good grain.'
Traditional Indigenous American ricers, to this day, still follow the duck
guides to the marshes where the wild rice is ripe.
The ducks themselves, who feed on this wild rice, are considered to be a
delicacy. One might note that waterfowl that eat fish and insects often
have a slightly 'fishy' taste, but the flavor of mallards, canvas backs,
teal and rails that flock to the wild rice marshes have a wonderful mild
and
slightly nutty flavor.
One should also note that these leaner wild ducks don't contain as much fat
as the store bought ones, so tying strips of pork fat or bacon around the
duck is recommended to keep them moist during roasting. For rare duck,
allow 18 to 20 minutes per pound roasting time.
Native Peoples magazine says 'The recipe that follows offers the
alternative
of using more commercially available Long Island ducklings, but the
stuffing
of wild rice studded with wild mushrooms and hazelnuts gives even the
domestic descendants of the wild mallard the flavor of the North Woods. To
complement the ducks and stuffing, we suggest serving two other
Northeastern
specialties, cranberry sauce sweetened with maple syrup and hazelnut-honey
baked squash.'
I did not have time to order the wild rice from Grey Owl foods like I
wanted
Page 503
in time to make this recipe for thanksgiving so I bought some wild rice at
the local grocery, and thought it still turned out great.
*(morels, crimini, shiitake or oyster
mushrooms)(I used a combination of portabella and shiitake in order to have
Rinse the ducks and pat dry. If you want to use giblets in the stuffing,
trim off the tough outer layer from gizzards, thinly slice giblets and
reserve. Season ducks inside and out with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add giblets and sauté
for 1 minute. Add mushrooms, onions, hazelnuts, and dill seed. Sauté for
about 1 minute, until mushrooms and nuts are just golden. Add wild rice
and
the fresh dill or parsley to skillet. Season with salt and pepper and
toss.
Allow stuffing to cool.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Loosely stuff the neck and body cavities of
ducks. Close neck flap with a skewer and cover exposed stuffing near the
tail with aluminum foil so it will stay moist. Prick skin all over with a
sharp forks so the ducks will self-baste in their fat. Reduce oven
temperature to 350 degrees and roast the ducks, allowing about 30 minutes
per pound. Prick skin and baste ducks with dripping two or three times
during roasting. Ducks are done when juices run clear with no hint of pink
when thigh is pierced.
Other Notes: There is quite a bit of difference in the amount of fat on a
wild duck and a domestic one. Since mine was a domestic bird, I did not do
any basting. I also put it on a rack so that it would not be sitting in all
that fat. If roasting a wild duck then go by the other suggestions.

1 tablespoon vinegar
1 rib of celery
1 small apple; sliced
1 rib of celery
2 slice salt pork
1/2 cup olive oil
3 tablespoon butter
1 wild rice
1 cranberry sauce
Wash and dry the dressed duck. Stuff it with the onion, celery and
vinegar. Leave in a covered pan overnight. Discard the onion and
celery. This eliminates the any fishy flavour.
Stuff the bird again with the apple and celery [this too will be
discarded after cooking]. Lay 2 strips of salt pork over the breast.
Put the olive oil and the butter in a small roaster and make sure it
is very hot before adding the bird. Roast uncovered in a very hot
oven 20 minutes only [med. rare] basting every 5 minutes. Serve with

Tie the roaast up neatly at 1/2" intervals with kitchen cord so that
it will hold it's shape while cooking. With a pastry brush, spread the
softened butter evenly over the meat. Place the roast on a rack in a
shallow open roasting pan and sear it in the hot oven for about 20
minutes. When the surface of the meat is quite brown, reduce the heat
to 375øF and sprinkle the roast generously with salt and pepper. Pour
the stock into the pan and cook the roast, uncovered, for 1 1/4
hours. With a large spoon or bulb baster, baste the meat with the pan
juices every half hour or so. The interior meat, when finished,
should be slightly rare, or about 150øF on a meat thermometer. Remove
the roast to a heated platter, cover it loosely and let rest in the
turned off oven while you make the sauce.
Skim and discard the fat from the pan juices. Measure the remaining
liquid and either reduce to 1 cup by boiling it rapidly or add enough
water to make up 1 cup. In a small, heavy saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon
of butter and stir in 1 tablespoon of flour. Stirring continuously
with a wooden spoon, cook this roux for 6 to 8 minutes over low heat
until it is a nut brown color. Be careful not to let it burn or it
will give the sauce a bitter flavor. Now, with a wire whisk, beat the
pan juices into the roux. Next whisk in the jelly and cheese. Beat
until they dissolve and the sauce is absolutely smooth, then stir in
the sour cream. Do not allow the sauce to boil. Taste for seasoning,
remove the strings from the roast and carve the meat in thin slices.
Pass the sauce separately.

Substitute any ripe, red chiles available as needed for the above.
Variety is essential.
I generally cook the meat completely, add some extra water to cover
meat and bring to a good boil. Set in a cold place to let the grease
congeal at the top. (I use this time to get all the veggies ready,
get out the spices, etc.) When the grease is thickened, scrape it off
the top.
Pre-heat oven and cookie sheet to 300 degrees. Spread the garlic,
onions, and raw peppers out on a lightly buttered sheet. Leave in oven
10 minutes, then broil until the thinnest edges of veggies just start
to turn brown. Stir and broil as long as you can without much more
browning. Dump veggies into the pot with the meat, start cooking and
add tomatoes, dried chiles and celery.
As veggies and meat are cooking with a slow boil, begin adding
non-salted spices. Stir occasionally. Add water as needed to maintain
a stew consistency. Gradually add all ingredients except soup and
beans, adding salted items a little at a time to keep the mix from
getting too much salt for your taste. Add pepper powder or veins to
increase heat as desired. (However the heat seems when you are
finished, it will be slightly hotter the next day. I have to consider
this when cooking, as my wife and kids are not CHs.) When the raw
tomatoes are nearly cooked, add the soup, and bring back to a boil,
stirring often. Add the beans, juice and all. Simmer 20 minutes,
stirring regularly. If possible, let cool overnight and re-heat
before serving. Re-skim grease if necessary before heating. Serve
with grated cheddar cheese added to serving.

Elk is perhaps the finest of all the venison meats. It is very fine
grained and mild flavoured, almost like beef. Like all wild venison,
it is very lean so it benefits from larding, barding and marinading.
With that in mind, you can treat it like beef. Steaks are best
grilled, cooked rare or at most medium rare. Well done meat will be
tough due to the lack of fat.
Trim any visible fat from the steaks. Combine the garlic and oil.
Pour over steaks and marinate, refrigerated, overnight. Season the
steaks with salt and freshly ground pepper. Grill or broil about
five-six minutes per side, depending on the heat level of the grill.
Stop while the steak is still quite rare. Set aside on a heated
platter in a low oven until the sauce is ready.

4 teaspoon black pepper; fresh ground
4 teaspoon ground cumin
2 medium green bell pepper
8 oz fresh pineapple; cut into
1 large chunks
4 oz mushrooms
4 oz cherry tomatoes
1 medium onion; sliced into wedges
8 wooden skewers
First cut meat into cubes, about 1 1/2". Should yield 16-24 pieces.
Combine next 5 ingredients and marinate cubes, refrigerated, in this

M's note: I'd probably halve the spices; then I'd strain the marinade
instead of heating it entire. I might also swirl in a few pats of
butter into the sauce.

END-OF-SEASON SAUSAGE
40 lb game meat
10 lb smoked ham or bacon*
1 1/4 cup black pepper
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 tablespoon salt
1 oz coriander
5 tablespoon mustard seed
1 garlic (opt)
*In place of smoked ham or bacon, you may use ordinary bacon fat; or
use 2 lb ham or bacon & abt 7 1/2 lb pork trim.
This recipe was developed to use up meat in the freezer at the end of
the year. Let meat thaw. Grind cuts into burger. Grind smoked
ham/bacon. Add seasonings to burger & work in w/ground pork. The
garlic may be light if you do not like the flavor, but don't leave it
out entirely as it helps cover the "end-of-season" flavor of meat
that has been frozen all winter. Spread meat in trays or dishpans &
mix thoroughly. Stuff mixture into casings & boil sausages until they
float. Hang them & let drip until thoroughly dry. Then smoke for 3-5
days in a light, cold smoke.

Most excellent item. I recommend it highly. If you can get your hands
of a wild Canada goose ... you have hit the jackpot. No matter.
The only other thing I'd suggest is rot-kraut. Pickled red cabbage as
a side dish. You can buy it in any good German or Kosher style deli.
I make my own ...... the commercial stuff just doesn't measure up.
A nice gravy is made with the drippings. Skim off the goose fat -
save it to make a schmaltz. The heavier portion is watery and
thickish with caramelized onion. Deglaze the pan with a splash ( 1/4
cup ) of Dujardin. Add 1/2 cup of flour to two cups cold water,
rotate a whisk briskly between the palms to incorporate the flour.
Add to the boiling base to the desired flavour and consistency.
Season with salt and a healthy dollop of fresh coarsely ground
(cracked) black pepper.

more. Serve with cheese and crackers. This is a fast mild chili that
the children love. My husband and I add hot sauce to ours. Of course,
it is not as good as the chili you make with dried beans and simmer
all day, but it works for a quick, inexpensive dinner.

----BASIC RIBS----
3 lb country ribs or other
2 tablespoon black pepper fine ground
1 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoon garlic salt
----SAUCE FOR REHEATING----
1 open pit small bottle
1/4 cup molasses
1 small bottle a-1 sauce
1 supply of hickory chips
Regular old supermarket pork. Spare ribs, country ribs, or any other
pork Not too much fat. Cut off any gross excess, and cut them to EVEN
thickness. You'll ruin everything if you cook the meat unevenly. You
may compensate by scoring the meat. In a large baking pan, soak the
ribs with cider vinegar, after which sprinkle them with garlic salt
and finely ground black pepper. (Don't use pepper mills, or other
peppers.) It doesn't seem to matter how long the ribs soak, or how
much vinegar is on them. Just make sure it hits all sides, you don't
have to puncture them. This sweetens the meat. The key to the fire is
the hickory chips. Keep feeding these amazing little fellows to the
charcoal. The flavor comes out of these chips and you cannot do
without them. Make sure the fat and chips don't light up your whole
dinner and ruin it. Cooking: A moderate hot fire a couple of inches
or more from the meat, and a grill of reasonable cleanness. As the
meat cooks turn it often, do not let it burn, do not baste it with
anything. Don't cover the grill and don't stray too far -- fire is
always hiding in the wings. Here is the catch -- the trick -- the
hard part, is the timing. You may ruin some meals before you hit it,
but the time to take them off the grill is one minute after trichina
danger is past. As soon as the meat turns brown it's time to eat. You
can use the small strips you cut off to judge just when things are
perfect. Special Purpose Sauce: (don't eat it cold, it's awful) 1
bottle Open Pit, One bottle A-1 Sauce, 1/4 C of molasses. Start
re-heating the sauce until slow boil, dump in the cold pork from the
fridge. alt. without sauce wrap the meat in foil and heat at 325 oven
for 15-20 minutes. Sauce can be stored and re-used, but remember it
will have pork fat in it now.

Next, I put the goose breasts in pairs in ham stockinnettes and air
dried them for 40 hours until they formed a nice pellicle.
I hung the goose breasts in the smoker and smoked them at around 90
degrees for 36 hours and consumed 3 pans of apple chips. (Half of
the last pan of chips was juniper and it added a delightful flavor)
After the smoking, I heated the smoker up to about 150 and warmed the
meat until the internal temp was 145. Then take out the goose and
cool it quickly and refrigerate.
The result is goose breast which you can slice very thinly with a
razor sharp knife (or slicing machine) which is delightful served
with thin slices of rye bread and sliced shallots. It has a somewhat
"raw" texture to it which gives it real bite appeal. I had 1 which I

You can leave out some of this, or add other things; some say chili
isn't chili unless it has a handful of jalapenos swimming around in
there, and it's not uncommon to tip a bottle of Jack Daniels over the
pot on occasion at camp, either. I like to brown the meat, onions and
garlic in the vegetable oil first, then add the dry spices and stir
into the meat; that way, the flavor isn't lost in the liquids you add
later. Cumin is one of my favorite spices. You can't add too much for
me, but some people might prefer less. Next, you add everything else
except the cheese, put the heat on low and simmer for at least three
hours, stirring occasionally. Just before serving, add the cheese and
stir steadily until it's melted. You might want to add some fresh
diced onions to the top of the bowl and serve it up with fresh-baked
cornbread. Man, home-cooking never was like this.

Add only enough water to prevent burning. Cook covered for 2 hours
at boil. Reduce heat to ~200 degrees and cook until you can't keep

too thin.

The moose that is taken late in the season & destined to feed many
Alaskan families is often a dry & lean animal. To lovers of fat beef,
late-season moose isn't much of a treat. While living in Flennallen
one winter, we learned from a family in Gakona how to make a sauce to
eliminate some of the problem. It's good on fat moose or beef, too.
In frying pan over medium heat bring fat to hot. Combine all
vegetables except mushrooms in a bowl & salt & pepper to taste. Pour
them into hot grease & saute for 3 mins. Add water & bring to a boil.
Cook for 10 mins, stirring occasionally. Drain mushrooms, add them to
sauce & heat for another 2 mins. Add extra liquid if mixture appears
too dry. Serve either on or beside meat.

GAME CASSOULET
** (duck, pheasant, venison, buffalo stew meat, turkey dark meat, elk or
rabbit)
Using a large, deep, heavy saucepan, saute the onion and berries over
medium heat for a few minutes. Add the meat and brown for 8 to 10 minutes.
Pour in the wine and let that liquid reduce until about half is evaporated.
Now add the broth or stock, thyme and sage and let the whole mixture cook
very slowly for about an hour or more, until the meat is very tender and
the gravy juices have thickened. If you think the juices aren't thick
enough, dust the meat with a little flour and stir it in. Put heat on low
or ''keep warm.'' Serve over hot pasta, rice or mashed potatoes.
This dish can be made a day ahead and reheated. If you want a little more
richness, add a tad of heavy cream and some garlic powder, but it is really
delicious just the way it is.
If you have pork or veal in your freezer to use up, you could easily
substitute it for one of the game meats. Veal is often sold in cutlet form
in small amounts. If you see it for a reasonable price, buy it and save it
up until you have enough to make a whole dinner, or use in a recipe like
the one above.

GAME STOCK
2 carrots
1 onion
5 lb venison bones
1 water
3 sprigs thyme
6 sprigs parsley
1 celery stalk
5 black peppercorns
4 juniper berries; optional
Cut carrots into 3-inch lengths. Cut onion into eights. Roast carrots,
onion and game bones on baking sheet at 400 degrees, shaking pan
every few minutes, until bones are brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer
carrots, onion and bones to large pot. Pour 1 cup water onto baking
sheet and scrape with spatula to release caramelized cooking
particles. Add to pot with bones and vegetables. Tie thyme, parsley
and celery stalk together and add to pot with peppercorns and juniper
berries. Cover with 5 quarts cold water and bring almost to boil over
high heat. Just before stock boils, reduce heat and simmer 4 hours.
Set aside to cool. Strain stock and discard solids. Store cooled
stock covered in refrigerator up to 5 days or put in plastic freezer
containers and freeze up to 3 months. Yields 4 quarts.
Comments: Never use game bones that have a strong gamy odor or your
stock will be strong and gamy, too.

For the forcemeat- If the meat is not very smooth and fine after it
has been ground 3 times, place it in small batches in a food
processor and process it until it is very smooth and the consistency
of the meat in a frankfurter. Add all the ingredients and mix
thoroughly. When well mixed take a small portion of the meat and
poach it in a little boiling water or saute it in a fry pan and test
the seasonings. I prefer to saute the meat. If needed, correct to
taste. Remember these will be eaten cold and the seasoning will not
be as intense when cold so they should be a little over seasoned when
hot.
For the terrines- Using one pound per pan, line each pan with bacon,
allowing the bacon to hang over the side so you can cover the tops
when done. This is accomplished by starting each strip in the center
of the bottom of the pan and working it up the sides and hanging the
excess over the side. Continue until the pan is completely lined.
This will require most of the pound of bacon.
layer about 1 inch deep. Pat in down firmly expelling all the air
from the corners and bottom. Place a layer of the chicken livers on
the meat, sprinkle with salt and the cajun seasoning to taste, and
cover with another layer of meat. Again pack it down firmly expelling
all the trapped air and sealing it to the bottom layer. Place the
sliced chicken breasts on top of the second layer of forcemeat
longways and again season to taste with the salt and cajun seasoning.
Cover with a third layer of forcemeat and pack down firmly. The pan
should be almost full to the top when done. Fold the bacon strips
over the top of the meat, pat down firmly and cover with aluminum
foil.
Terrine #2- This terrine should be made in layers the same way as the
first. Saute the mushrooms and bell pepper in the butter until just
cooked and set aside. Squeeze the spinach with your hands to get all
the liquid out. Construct the terrine using the mushrooms, spinach,
bell pepper and pork loin, seasoning to taste as before, with the
salt and cajun spice. The m ush rooms , spi nach and bel I pepper wi
I I cook down a lot so add more than you think you need or you wont

Terrine #3, Put this terrine together as the others, in layers, using
the listed ingredients and seasonings making any pattern you wish.
Remember these are just suggestions for ingredients to use in these
terrines and you are only limited by you imagination and flavors that
will blend together.
To cook The terrine- Place the terrine pan in a boiling water bath
that comes about halfway up the sides of the pan and cook in a
preheated 350 degree oven for about 1 1/2 hours or until the meat
reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees. Remove and chill
overnight before serving. Classically it should be cooled with a
weight on top of it to compress it as it cools. I find that when I do
this the terrine tends to be too dry. I cool mine unweighted.
NOTES : Salt and the Cajun seasoning are to taste in all of the
terrines.

With a sharp knife remove the two loins from a well aged saddle of
venison, reserving the carcass, and draw off the thin covering of
membrane from the meat. Trim the ends of the loins, reserving the
trimmings, and slit each loin almost through lengthwise. Spread open
the meat and pound it lightly until it is evenly thick throughout.
Cover the meat with thin slices of peeled truffles. Grind finely the
reserved venison trimmings. Combine them in a bowl with 6 slices of
lean bacon, finely ground, 2/3 cup ground lean pork, 1/2 cup ground
veal, and 1/4 cup minced goose or chicken livers. Season the mixture
with salt, pepper, allspice, marjoram, and thyme to taste and add
enough Madeira so that the filling can be piped through a broad pastry
tube. Pipe the filling over the truffle slices and press 1/3 cup
shelled pistachio nuts into it.
Roll up the two pieces of venison carefully and wrap them securely in
foil. Put them in a roasting pan with the reserved carcass and roast
them, uncovered, in a very hot oven (450-F) for 10 to 12 minutes.
Remove the pan from the oven, let the venison cool, and chill it. Trim
each loin to the exact length of the venison rack, replace them in the
carcass, and reshape the saddle. Arrange it on a platter and chill it.
Sprinkle 2 envelopes gelatin over 1/2 cup Madeira and let it soften

With a sharp knife remove the two loins from a well aged saddle of
venison, reserving the carcass, and draw off the thin covering of
membrane from the meat. Trim the ends of the loins, reserving the
trimmings, and slit each loin almost through lengthwise. Spread open
the meat and pound it lightly until it is evenly thick throughout.
Cover the meat with thin slices of peeled truffles. Grind finely the
reserved venison trimmings. Combine them in a bowl with 6 slices of
lean bacon, finely ground, 2/3 cup ground lean pork, 1/2 cup ground
veal, and 1/4 cup minced goose or chicken livers. Season the mixture
with salt, pepper, allspice, marjoram, and thyme to taste and add
enough Madeira so that the filling can be piped through a broad
pastry tube. Pipe the filling over the truffle slices and press 1/3
cup shelled pistachio nuts into it. Roll up the two pieces of venison
carefully and wrap them securely in foil.
Put them in a roasting pan with the reserved carcass and roast them,
uncovered, in a very hot oven (450-F) for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the
pan from the oven, let the venison cool, and chill it. Trim each loin
to the exact length of the venison rack, replace them in the carcass,
and reshape the saddle. Arrange it on a platter and chill it.
Sprinkle 2 envelopes gelatin over 1/2 cup Madeira and let it soften
for about 10 minutes. Bring 1 cup bouillon to a boil, add it to the
gelatin mixture, and stir it until the gelatin is dissolved. Taste
the aspic and add salt and a little more Madeira, if needed. Let the
aspic cool until it begins to thicken slightly and brush it liberally
over the chilled venison. Chill the meat until the aspic is firm.
Keep the remaining aspic at room temperature, brushing it on the
venison about every 12 minutes, and chill the venison after each
application until it is nicely glazed. If the aspic becomes too thick
to brush, stand the container in a bowl of hot water. Garnish the
venison with chestnuts and serve it with Cumberland sauce.

Veal, Pork
For these white, close fibered meats which should always be well
cooked allow twenty-five minutes to the pound plus fifteen. The
reason for the additional time is to allow the meat to become
thoroughly heated through to the center.
Poultry
This should have twenty minutes to the pound. The temperature should
begin at 500 degrees, and should remain at that point for
approximately fifteen minutes that the surface of the meat may be
seared so as to retain the juices, after which reduce to 400-500
degrees F.

GINGER ELK
2 lb elk steak
1/3 cup ginger root; peeled & cut
1 in inch slices
2 medium onions; sliced
2 cloves garlic; minced
1 teaspoon sugar
3/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoon vegetable oil; up to 3
2 tablespoon cornstarch
Cut elk steaks, across the grain, into 1/4-inch thick slices.
Layer venison, sliced onions, garlic, and 1/4 cup ginger root in
glass bowl.
Combine soy sauce and sugar and pour liquid over meat. Cover and
refrigerate 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Heat oil and cook 5-6 slices of ginger root until browned and flavor
is released into the oil. Remove and discard these ginger slices.
Drain the majority of soy sauce from the meat and onion marinade.
Add meat, onions, garlic and ginger slices to oil in skillet. Saute
2-3 minutes, then sprinkle cornstarch over meat and stir. Continue
cooking until meat is completely cooked.
Notes: This is Jim Zumbo's favorite all-time recipe. Use it for all
big game, especially the strongest cuts of meat. About the soy sauce:
taste the soy sauce; brands vary, and if the soy sauce is very salty,
reduce the marinating time to 30 minutes. About the ginger root: it
is cut in 1/8-inch thick slices so that it can be easily removed
before serving by those who find it too pungent. You may want to
reduce the amount of ginger, and dice it, or keep it as is if you love
the flavor. From Jim Zumbo in JIM ZUMBO'S AMAZING VENISON RECIPES,

Mince all three meats fairly finely and put them into a bowl. Add
the zest of the orange and lemon, the crushed garlic, the thyme,
olive oil, vinegar, a generous pinch of powdered bay and plenty of
black pepper. Mix thoroughly and stir in the wine. Cover and leave
to marinate overnight.
Season with salt - I find 1 teaspoon about right but fry a small
nugget of the mixture to check. Turn the pate into a terrine of
about 2 1/4 pint capacity. Pack the mixture well down into the
corners of the dish and use a spoon to hollow out slightly the centre
top. Cover with greaseproof paper and foil, stand the dish in a
roasting pan containing enough hot water to come halfway up the sides
of the dish. Bake at 325 F (160 C) gas mark 3 for 2-1/4 to 2-1/2
hours.
Using a bulb baster, remove and reserve most of the juices that
surround the pate. Replace the greaseproof paper and foil, press the
pate lightly with 1-1/2 to 2 lb weights and cool for 1-1/2 hours.
Then drain off any remaining juices that have not been re-absorbed by
the pate. Mix all the venison juices that you have collected with the
juice of the orange and measure. Add a splash of water if necessary
to make 1/2 pint in total. Dissolve the gelatine powder in the
mixture and use it to glaze the pate, adding a few bay leaves and
kumquats to decorate if liked.

Put all the seasonings in the casserole, mix, taste for salt and add
the meat. Now pour in some of the wine, so the meat is almost
covered. Put the lid on the casserole and bring to the oven, which
must be very hot [232^C/450^F]. Bake for an hour at that temperature,
then check the amount of liquid in the casserole.
Add the remaining wine now, keep the oven at the above temperature
for 30 minutes longer, then reduce to 180^C/350^F until the end of
cooking [another 1 to 1 1/2 hours].
Remove from the oven, test for salt and liquid [it should bw swimming
in gravy] and keep for a day or so, until needed. Then place it in
the oven again until really hot. Serve accompanied by boiled potatoes.
This festive stew used to be prepared in the baker's oven and still
is, when possible. There is no reason, however, why one could not
prepare it at home. The proper container is a large black earthen
ware casserole from the same region, but you could use any roomy,
fireproof dish with a lid.
Goat meat is the classic choice, but lamb can also be used.
Quantities here are given for 4 people, but these could be doubled or

GRAM SELMA
This is stated by the Pawnee people as being one of their oldest dishes,
despite that it has modern touches; the yellow squash is the one ingredient
that they insist on, occasionally chopped nuts are added if not being
served with above recipe. I and my mother both really like it as a side
dish to any traditional foods of the woodlands.
Warm oil or butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Quickly saute'
the onion for 3 to 5 minutes, until translucent. Add the squash and
chopped pepper, stirring to blend well and cook for an additional 5
minutes. Stir often to keep mixture from sticking. Add the corn, the
remaining seasoning and all or some of the liquid if the mixture is
sticking--add more liquid as needed. Stir well, cover, and cook for 10 to
15 minutes, stirring once or twice. Serve hot.

barbecue rack as high as possible and place sausages on top. Cover
with old blanket to keep smoke in, but leave front open. Smoke for 1
1/2 hours. Fire may have to be made several times, always on a plate

The ducks themselves, who feed on this wild rice, are considered to
be a delicacy. One might note that waterfowl that eat fish and
insects often have a slightly "fishy" taste, but the flavor of
mallards, canvas backs, teal and rails that flock to the wild rice
marshes have a wonderful mild and slightly nutty flavor.
One should also note that these leaner wild ducks don't contain as
much fat as the store bought ones, so tying strips of pork fat or
bacon around the duck is recommended to keep them moist during
roasting. For rare duck, allow 18 to 20 minutes per pound roasting
time.
Rinse the ducks and pat dry. If you want to use giblets in the
stuffing, trim off the tough outer layer from gizzards, thinly slice
giblets and reserve. Season ducks inside and out with salt and
pepper.
Page 630
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add giblets and
saut‚ for 1 minute. Add mushrooms, onions, hazelnuts, and dill seed.
Saut‚ for about 1 minute, until mushrooms and nuts are just golden.
Add wild rice and the fresh dill or parsley to skillet. Season with
salt and pepper and toss. Allow stuffing to cool.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Loosely stuff the neck and body
cavities of ducks. Close neck flap with a skewer and cover exposed
stuffing near the tail with aluminum foil so it will stay moist.
Prick skin all over with a sharp forks so the ducks will self-baste
in their fat. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees and roast the
ducks, allowing about 30 minutes per pound. Prick skin and baste
ducks with dripping two or three times during roasting. Ducks are
done when juices run clear with no hint of pink when thigh is pierced.

Green chili Stew is an old New Mexican staple which can be prepared with
lamb, beef, or pork. The Navajo Indians use lamb, but a combination of beef
and pork is good too. It's a fine dish to prepare a day in advance because
it tastes even better the second day.
In a large saucepan brown the meat in oil. Add onion and continue cooking
until onion is soft. Deglaze pan with 2 cups water. Add remaining water and
simmer covered for 30 minutes. Add the quartered potatoes and continue
cooking until the meat and potatoes are tender. In a blender or food

along with zucchini, oregano, garlic, grated potato, salt and pepper. Cook
15 minutes. Serve in large bowls. If desired, top with sour cream.

GREEN-CHILE STEW
Heat Dutch oven or medium saucepan over high. Saute onion, garlic,
oregano and cumin until onion is clear. Add green chiles, saute and
stir. Add pork cubes and stir to seize all sides of the pork; add lime
juice and mix.
Now add chicken stock, stopping when most of the pork cubes are covered
with liquid. Stir well, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and set the
timer for 30 minutes. Check occasionally to make sure the stuff isn't
scorching on the bottom. When the timer goes off, check the consistency
and either add more stock if it's gotten thicker/drier than you like it,
or raise the heat and cook uncovered to thicken if it's too runny. Add
salt and black pepper now.

I've taken to chopping up fresh chiles to make my own food hotter, since
the kids max out at Anaheim chiles. My base mild mix is to cut up an
ancho or poblano chile (the dark green glossy ones, triangular and
medium-pungent) into 1/4' dice, as well as about a quarter of an onion
and a clove of garlic. Add a little olive oil and some dried oregano,
stir well and salt to taste. Sprinkle this on the chile verde, roll it
up in your tortillas, use it in omelettes or even on Texas-style chili.
Notes:
------
1. Long green chiles: if you can't find them fresh, you can use canned
but the taste will be slightly different; the canned variety add lots of
citric acid as a preservative. You might want to cut down on the lime
in that event. I used fresh Anaheim chiles from my garden last year,
and will do so again this year as the Anaheim is producing earliest
(four chiles!) but I'm anxious for my New Mexico varieties to get going.
The original poster is in the center of the universe for this stuff,
though, and frankly you'd probably get better recipes asking your
co-workers, fellow students, or the janitorial staff there than the net;
Page 635
2. Hot chiles: The Anaheims are pretty mild. Some people like to add
jalapenos to this, but I preferred the serranos when we had the pepper
garden last year. I liked six Anaheims and six serranos when it was
just for me and Kim, but the girls wouldn't touch it, which is why I
started making the garnish. You can also garnish with chopped fresh
cilantro or epazote if you can find it; we're growing that and I love it
so far, it's like a cross between cilantro and sorrel in flavor.

Again, wild duck breasts are preferred, but domestic duck (inquire at
your supermarket for farm-raised moulard duck breasts or other top
quality duck) can be used as well. My duck-hunter friends like to
grill wild duck to rare to medium-rare (the taste is marvelous), but
you can cook them a little longer if you can't stand the sight of
blood.
Rinse the duck breasts in cool water and pat dry. Rub the breasts
with the oil, then season with salt, black pepper and cayenne. Set
aside.
When the charcoal is gray and hot, lay the breasts on the grill.
Grill for about seven minutes (time will vary depending on the size
and thickness of the breasts as well as the type of breasts you are
using), then turn and grill for seven to eight minutes for rare to
medium-rare. Cook longer if desired.
Transfer the breasts to a cutting board and slice thinly on the bias.
To serve, put the breasts on dinner plates and spoon the sauce over
them. Makes four servings.

Long before restaurants made moullard duck breast trendy, hunters have
known the irresistable taste of grilled duck breast, usually cooked
rare. Farm raised moullard breasts are of course much larger, being
raised primarily for their size but no outdoorsman will bother
comparing the difference in taste between farm-raised and wild duck.
Because one shouldn't compare apples with oranges.
Serve with garlic mashed potatoes with a little orange zest swirling
into it while mashing and collard greens, steamed and sprinkled with
vinegar, salt and pepper.
Preparation:
Combine orange juice and stock in a medium sauce pan over medium-high
heat. Reduce by one-half, about 15-20 minutes, uncovered. Add balsamic
vinegar and ginger, cook 2-3 minutes then add margarine, 1 tablespoon
at a time while whisking constantly. After margarine is completely
integrated add salt (if using), pepper and orange zest. Turn off heat,
cover and keep warm.
When the charcoals are gray and hot, lay breasts on grate. Grill 6-8
minutes, turn and grill about 8 more minutes or until the meat is
medium-rare to rare, depending how you like your duck meat cooked.
(The time will vary considerably depending on the type of duck, or
goose, breast used. Obviously, decrease the time with smaller ducks
and increase with larger ones.)

For the marinade, mix all wet and dry ingredients until blended. Add
the onions and stir. Place the filets into a shallow non reactive
dish. Pour the marinade onto the filets, cover and refrigerate for 72
hours, turn the meat over once a day.
Remove the filets from the dish and place on paper towels to dry off
the marinade before you light the grill. Reserve the remaining
marinade for a basting sauce. Place charcoal in a pyramid shape and
light with either lighter fluid, electric starter or chimney starter.
Wait until coals are gray and spread in a single layer for the direct
heat method. Spray grid with non-stick spray and let grid heat over
the hot coals (the hotter the grid, the less chance the food will
stick). Place filets on the grid. Grill for 6-7 minutes, baste with
the marinade and turn, grill 5-6 more minutes, baste again with the
marinade until it is cooked to medium rare. The filets cook very
quickly, the cooking time should be less than 13 minutes depending on
if you like them rare or medium rare.

Here in Sweden the hunting for hare is very beloved and traditional
and for that we also eat a lot of hare. This makes Swededes experts
in preparing the meat. ; -)
To begin with, the hare must be tenderized. We normaly let the hare
hang for a week or ten days at temperatures under 4 degree Celsius.
For some, this may sound long, but believe me, the meat will need it.
After the tenderizing, you may place the hare in a bowl, cover it
comple te with processed sour milk and place the bowl in the fridge
for 24 hours. This will make the meat still more tender and take away
some of the strong venison taste. T his action is not necessary if
you do not mind venison tasting venison ;-).
Dry off the meat with kitchenpaper, and you are now ready to make
yourse lf popular by presenting a exquisite dinner. Place the sieved
breadcrumbs in the milk, leave for 10 minutes to swell. Mix the
remaining ingredients (except the prunes).
Form to small buns or eggs and place a prune in the center of each
egg. Be shure to cover the prune completely with the minced meat. Fry
them golden brown in butter at medium temperature.
Start with sizzle the onion in the butter for about 30 seconds. Add
the well wiped off chanterelles and sizzle while stirring until they
start to crack. Add the wheat flour, stirring well. Add the broth,
wine and the cream. Boil until the sauce starts to get thicker. Stirr

You will now enjoy the familys undisguised admiration and get a
reputati on of being a perfect chef! (If you do not have a hare, I

have..........) Have a nice time in the kitchen and at the dinner
table! Your Swedish cook (Amateur that is) :-)

10 cloves garlic
1 quart nonfat beef broth
4 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoon oregano
3/4 teaspoon salt
When the onions are limp, but not yellow (don't overcook them, maybe 7
minutes tops) add about 10 cloves of garlic which have been mashed and
minced. When the garlic scents up, add the meat. Add one quart of
homemade chicken or beef stock. If you don''t have your own stock, try
Campbell's low-sodium chicken stock.
Add the spices. Crush the oregano in your hand before adding. Bring to
a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and simmer for at least three hours
or until the meat is fork-tender.
Notes
To serve, reheat. Some like to thicken the chili with masa or fine
corn meal. To do this, mix some about 1/4 cup fine corn meal with
enough water to make a thin paste (no more than one cup of water). Add
this quickly to the chili as it simmers, stir like crazy, or you may
get lumps. If you use the masa, be sure to cook the chili for at least
another 20 minutes or so, or it may taste pasty.

Pigs are what they eat. That's why we only hunt and eat wildboar from
certain areas of our island (Maui). The pigs from the east end of the
island where they feed on mangos and guavas are very good eating,
these pigs also have the blood of domestic breeds gone feral, so they
have a higher fat content. All this equals great wild game without
the gamely taste. In the forests above my home the wildboars feed in
ferns and shrubbery which gives them a very gamey almost inedible
taste. I'd rather drive acouple hours to harvest good tasting game.
For wildgame sausage, adding belly pork from the butcher will
increase the fat content in the otherwise extremely lean wildgame
meat, making the sausage more tender, less mealy in consistancy.

Place meat in a flat dish with herbs, tomato and oils. Turn to coat
well with the mixture. Cover and marinate for at least 2 hours at
room temperature, or overnight, refrigerated, turning occasionally.
Bring meat to room temperature then drain and reserve marinade.
Heat a cast-iron grill pan (with removable or ovenproof handle) on
top of the stove until just smoking. Cook the meat for 2 minutes on
each side. Spoon reserved marinade over the meat. Transfer pan to
a 220C oven and bake for 5 minutes. Remove from oven, cover and
stand in pan for 5-10 minutes before slicing. (Do not be tempted to
leave meat in oven for any longer than 5 minutes as it will continue
to cook when removed from oven.) Remove from grill pan once out of
the oven if you prefer meat more rare. Meanwhile, bring stock to
the boil in a small saucepan and cook for 2 minutes, add dried
mushrooms, cover and stand for 30 minutes. Add meat pan juices
and reheat quickly as meat is being sliced. Cut fillets diagonally,
garnish with fresh herbs and serve with roasted potato chunks and a
green salad, if desired. Pass mushroom sauce separately.

I have been cooking with venison since I was a little little girl.
The venison we kill here every year is very mild and not gamey at all
so I don't have to worry about the taste too much, I can use it as
if it were ground beef. But I have found that when we do get gamey
tasting venison, I marinate the meat overnight in a solution of 1 c.
water, 1 c. vinegar, 3 T. salt, 1/2 onion or apple cut in chunks. It
seems to take away that nasty taste and you can use it in almost any
recipe. Here is a good recipe that I like. It works with burger or
steaks.
Marinade:

Page 686
1. Freeze the flank steak until partially frozen, about 1 hr. Using a
sharp knife, cut diagonally across the grain into 1/4-inch-thick
strips. (For chewier jerky, cut with the grain, but this is only
recommended for card-carrying cowboys.)
3. Remove an oven rack from the oven and lightly spray the rack with
nonstick vegetable spray. Remove the strips from the marinade,
shaking off excess marinade. Pat the strips dry with paper towels.
Arrange the strips, close together but not touching on the rack. Line
the bottom of the oven with aluminum foil (to catch drips).
4. Preheat the oven to 150 F. Place the oven rack with the jerky in
the oven. Bake until a cool piece of jerky (remove from the oven and
cool 5 mins) breaks when bent, about 5 hours. Blot any surface fat
with paper towels. Cool completely. Store in an airtight container
for up to 1 month at cool room temperature, 3 months in the
refrigerator, or 6 months in the freezer. Makes about 1 lb from M.K.

Age matters somewhat less than diet and condition. An older animal
that is still fat and tender can be very good eating indeed - look
for yellow fat deposits around the kidneys and haunches to indicate a
better chance of tenderness. But even an old, tough squirrel has a
lovely sweet flavor that can be beautifully brought out in a simple
stew with lemon juice, spring lily bulbs or fresh garlic greens and
potatoes.
I've tasted all manner of exotic game from around the world, and in
truth, plain old American squirrel still ranks up there with my very
favorites.
Tanith Tyrr
Size: Don't use a scope when hunting them. Mature squirrels (3-4
years) are noticeably larger.
Greyness: Yes, even grey squirrels go grey. Check around the light
fur on the belly and also around the whiskers, the hair on an older
squirrel will be greying.
Tail: Young squirrels have spikey tails. As they age, the tail
lengthens, the hair continues to grow, and it become more full.

1 wild ginger
1 canadian snakeroot
Wild ginger is sometimes called the Canadian snakeroot and was widely
used by the Indian tribes in the northern parts of the US and Canada.
The plant grows in shady woods. The leaves are an odd chocolate
color and the flowers are picked and boiled in water. When the
solution has been boiled down to the right consistency it has a
strong smell of ginger. The root can also be prepared and boiled in
water; the solution is then placed in the sun to evaporate. The
resulting powder can be used as ordinary ginger.

HUSH PUPPY 2
WHAT? A biscuit that's gone to the dogs. Though just lumps of deep-fried
cornmeal batter, this Southern classic can inspire reveries from people
below the Mason-Dixon line, where an abiding nostalgia for fish fries and
pig pickin's (pork barbecues) requires a steady supply of hush puppies. 'A
plate of fried fish seems mighty lonely without them,' Angela Shelf
Medearis
wrote in The African American Kitchen, and Southern cooking maven Nathalie
Dupree served fried catfish with hush puppies at her wedding. The unusual
name is usually attributed to people trying to quiet dogs by throwing them
bits of fried treats. Who those people were depends on which story you
believe--plantation servants carrying food to the dining room, Southerners
hiding from Yankees during the Civil War; Reconstructionists pitying dogs
left starving due to food shortages, or hunters rewarding hungry hounds
after day-long excursions. Regardless, when hush puppies are made well,
there's nothing like 'em. Chow down.
straight from Tennessee
Southern Hush Puppies Hush Puppies are traditionally made with fine ground
White Cornmeal but you can also use Yellow Cornmeal, too.
METHOD
When the oil is ready, drop a tablespoon of the batter into the hot oil,
shaping slightly with your hand. This makes one Hush Puppy. Cook three or
four at a time until light brown. They will usually turn over once.
Drain on paper towels and serve hot. Good with fried chicken or catfish.
Makes 12 to 14 hush puppies.

INDIAN BURGERS
Indian Burgers are a kind of fried meat pie. The dough is same as that used
for fry bread in this region--self-rising flour and water. Usually, the
meat filling is ground beef cooked with onion, and salt and pepper, but
chili powder or other seasonings may be added. The deep fried 'burger' is
cut open on top and ketchup and other condiments spooned in. Serve with a
side of cole slaw.
In a large skillet combine beef, onion, and about 1/2 cup water. Cook over
medium heat for 10 minutes, until beef is no longer pink. Drain off excess
liquid and season beef mixture with salt and pepper. Allow mixture to cool
while preparing the dough.
Place 4 cups of flour in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the flour and
pour in 1-1/2 cups water. Gradually mix the flour into the water to make a
soft, sticky dough. Scrape dough onto a well-floured work surface and knead
for 3 to 5 minutes. Divide dough into 8 portions and,with floured hands,
roll each portion into a smooth ball. Flatten the balls into rounds about 5
inches in diameter and 1/4-inch thick.
Place about 1/3 cup of beef mixture in the middle of a fry bread round.
Gently lift the edges of dough and pinch and seal overlapping dough to
enclose the meat filling. Deep-fry at 350 F. for 6 to 8 minutes until
golden brown. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately.

Therefore we leave this to the "lyers" of the tribe. The corn is boiled
with the hardwood
ashes and water for about two hours. Then it is washed to remove the eyes
or hulls and to
rinse the corn free of lye. The Tuscarora reservation has three or four
"lyers" who perform
the difficult and messy task of "lying". A "lyer" will do a large amount of
corn in a day
depending on how many orders she has to do for the tribal members. I get my
"lyed" corn from
Mrs. Norton Rickard of Blacknose Spring Road. Usually I order five quarts
at $3.00 per quart.
I then divide it into three parts. I will freeze two of them and cook one
part...about a
quart and one half.

INDIAN JERKY
3 gal water
2 lb dry brown sugar
1 oz saltpeter
1 oz cayenne pepper
1 cup juniper berries, crushed
1 whole piece ginger
Jerky is dried meat, cut in long strips from large game or beef. To
prepare sun-dried jerky, cut fresh meat into long thi strips about
an inch wide and an inch thick. Rub the strips with salt and hang,
spaced well apart on racks, in the sun to dry. When dry, store in
sacks hung in a dry place.
Jerky will keep dry as long as it is exposed to the air and smoke. It
is important not to leave it longer than a couple of days. Then take
it down and store it in air-tight jars or other containers.
Yield: 50 pounds
Brown meat, pour off fat. Add onion and pepper, saute 5 minutes. Drain.

2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoon baking powder
1 scant c milk
Mash the garlic and saute in the butter. Rub the meat with salt and
flour and brown it well on all sides in the butter. Lay the meat on a
bed or thin-sliced onion in a large Dutch oven or any pot with a
tight-fitting lid. Add the butter, the spices and seasonings and pour
the rum or wine over the meat. (A good pot roast will supply most of
its own juices, but as it cooks pour the 1/2 C water over it to make
an ample supply of gravy.) Cover tightly and simmer for 3 to 4 hours
until the roast is tender. This may be done either in the oven or on
the back of the stove. If you want carrots with the pot roast, add
them to the pot for the last half hour of cooking and for the last 12
minutes of cooking add the dumplings to steam in the flavors of the
pot. When the roast is done, remove it to a hot, round platter and
surround with the dumplings and carrots. Stir the grave until smooth,
correcting the seasoning if necessary. Pour it over the roast; if
fresh dill is available, cut it over the dish with a lavish hand.

cool. Stuff the raccoon and sew up the cavity. Place the raccoon,
breast down on the rack of a roasting pan, with the legs folded under
the body and fastened with a string. Drape the salt pork over the
back of the raccoon and fasten with toothpicks. Place the onions
beside the raccoon on the rack.
Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes to brown the meat. Reduce the
heat to 325 degrees and add the 2 cups of beef stock. Cook for one
hours, basting as often as possible. Transfer to a heated platter
surrounded by whole onions.

Fry onion and moose meat broken up loose. Sprinkle some salt and chile
powder over it. Add tomato paste and 4 cans of water and the canned
tomatoes and their juice - break up tomatoes and stir it around. Taste for
seasoning.
Simmer till meat and onions are done and sauce is thick, 30 - 40 minutes.
Assembling:
Put the flat frybread on a plate and spread sauce over it. Put a handful of
cheese on it and top with a handful of shredded lettuce. Add your own
choice of chopped raw onion, chiles, and maybe some other favorites from
bowls.
This amount of taco sauce is about right for 8-10 flat fry breads.

The Iroquois were blessed with clear, cool lakes and sparkling streams, and
both served up an abundance of fish. Fish soup, or u'nega'gei, as the
Iroquois called it, was a favorite. One early recipe is described, 'Fish of
any kind is boiled in a pot with a quantity of water. It is then removed
and
coarse corn siftings stirred in to make a soup of suitable consistency.'
When wild onions and greens were available, they were usually tossed into
the soup pot, adding both color and flavor.
Place the mushrooms, consomme, corn meal, parsley, garlic, basil, onion,
pepper and salt in a large
saucepan, and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Add haddock, lima beans,
and sherry and simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, breaking haddock
into bite-sized pieces. Serve hot.

Combine beans, onion, tomato sauce, salt, and chili powder and cook
over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, 2-3 hr.
Recipe doesn't say what to do with the meat, but you can figure it
out. I would substitute the meat for the beans in the third paragraph
and then toss the beans (or fix them separately). I would also
increase the chili powder by a factor of about 10.

1 javelina
1 mule deer
When I got to Texas, I set out looking for the best bowl of red. I
thought the Texas Chili Parlor in Austin was OK but lacked something.
One weekend spent quail hunting on a ranch led me to the holy grail.
One of the Tejano hands prepared chili with javelina and mule deer.
So pork makes sense. He added coffee and Gephardt's chile powder. The
chocolate replaces the coffee and Gephardt's is made from red NM
chiles. Beer (Lone Star) was added for moisture. So, bigwheel, the
recipe is not so strange as you might think. The major players are
meat and chiles and the other ingredients are meant to boost their
flavors. In my mind's eye, this is what chili is supposed to be.

Cut the upper jaw bone of the moose just below the eyes. Place in a
large kettle of scalding water and boil for 45 minutes. Remove and
chill in cold water. Pull out all the hairs - these will have been
loosened by the boiling and should come out easily ( like plucking a
duck). Wash thoroughly until no hairs remain. Place the nose in a
kettle and cover with fresh water. Add onion, garlic, spices and
vinegar Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the meat
is tender. Let cool overnight in the liquid.
When cool, take the meat out of the broth, and remove and discard the
bones and the cartilage. You will have two kinds of meat, white meat
from the bulb of the nose, and thin strips of dark meat from along
the bones and jowls. Slice the meat thinly and alternate layers of
white and dark meat in a loaf pan. Reheat the broth to boiling, then
pour the broth over the meat in the loaf pan. Let cool until jelly
has set. Slice and serve cold.

coat generously with olive all. Leave to marinate, preferably for two
days. Char-grill or roast the peppers until the skins are black and
crisp, then peel off the skin to reveal the red succulent flesh
underneath. Heat some olive oil in a pan until very hot and add the
marinated rabbit pieces to brown it off. Coat with pimenton as you
do so. Then add the chopped pancetta and the peppers. Pour in the
wine and allow the alcohol to burn off. Top the dish with the olives,

Mix all ingredients except meat to make marinade. Cut thinly sliced
meat into 1/2 inch strips and marinate for 12 to 24 hours (the longer
the better). Smoke using mesquite chips for about three hours and
then finish drying in oven. If doing whole operation in oven use
liquid smoke and hang strips of meat on highest rack and put shallow
pan underneath to catch drippings. Turn oven on and set to lowest
possible setting and leave for 6 to 8 hours until thoroughly dried. A
couple of hints that I picked up from one of the cooking echos. Use
toothpicks or wooden skewers to hang meat by, and line the pan with
aluminum foil to collect the drippings and save cleaning problems
later on. If you have access to sweet onions (vidalias, etc) they can
be sliced and dried and then run through the blender to make an
excellent onion powder to be used in this recipe.

2 cup day-old breadcrumbs
3 oz beef suet; shredded
2 lemon rinds; grated
2 tablespoon parsley; chopped
1 egg; beaten
1 flour for coating
1 oil for frying
Cut the hares into serving pieces. If available, keep the blood in
a bowl to add to the sauce before serving. In a large flameproof
casserole or heavy saucepan, heat the butter and oil until very hot.
Pat dry each piece of hare with kitchen paper, to absorb any excess
moisture or blood, and brown each piece of hare on both sides in the
hot fat. As the pieces are browned, remove them to a warmed dish;
keep them warm in a low oven. When all the pieces of hare are
browned, add the vegetables and garlic to the fat in the pan and cook
for a few minutes.
Replace the pieces of hare in the pan and add the pared lemon and
orange rinds, the juniper berries, peppercorns and salt. Pour in
enough water to cover the hare. Cover the pan with a tightly fitting
lid and cook gently on top of the stove. or in a preheated low oven
(3000F / 1500C / gas 2), for about 3 hours, or until the meat is just
beginning to come away from the bones.
Meanwhile, make the forcemeat balls. Heat the butter and oil in a
saucepan, add the onion and cook for a few minutes. Pour the onion
into a mixing bowl and add the breadcrumbs. Mix well, then mix in the
suet, lemon rind, parsley and beaten egg. Flour your hands and form
the mixture into small balls about the size of a walnut. Coat each
ball in flour, and put on a baking sheet lined with greaseproof (wax)
Page 737
paper. Cover and keep in the refrigerator until you are ready to cook
them. (They can also be frozen.)
Remove the casserole from the oven and cool the hare in the stock.
When cool. take the pieces of hare out of the stock and strip the
meat from the bones. Put it into an ovenproof dish and set aside
while you make the sauce. Strain the stock.
Use the larger quantities of butter, flour and port wine if you
have no hare's blood to thicken the sauce. Melt the butter in a
saucepan, add the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes. Gradually add 1-1/2
pints / 3 3/4 cups / 900ml of the hare stock, stirring all the time
until the sauce boils. Stir in the redcurrant jelly and port wine,
stirring until the jelly has melted in the hot sauce. Season to taste
with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the hare meat in the
ovenproof dish. Cover the dish and reheat in the low oven until the
sauce is bubbling gently and does so for 10-15 minutes.
Meanwhile, fry the forcemeat balls. Heat oil in a frying pan and
cook the balls until golden brown all over. Drain them on several
thicknesses of kitchen paper. They will keep warm for up to an hour.
If thickening the sauce with blood, pour a little of the hot sauce
into the bowl containing the blood. Mix well, and stir this into the
rest of the sauce and hare in the dish. If necessary, keep in a warm
oven until you are ready to serve, but take care not to let the sauce
boil again once the blood has been added. Serve the jugged hare with
the forcemeat balls.

fry pan or grill plate until hot. Toss in the oiled meat slices and
quickly sear on each side. Do not turn until the first side is
properly sealed--this does not take very long--and don't overcook.
Remove meat and rest in a warm place until all the meat slices are
cooked. In another pan, over medium heat, melt the remaining butter,
add the squeezed spinach and the salt and pepper, and stir until the
spinach is hot. Divide the spinach into four portions, spoon onto the
centre of the plate, top with three escalopes. Slice the anchovy

Farming some native species may be one of the best ways to protect our
environment for future generations. Tim Flannery, biological
scientist at the Australian Museum, argues there are good
environmental, as well as nutritional, reasons for eating kangaroo.

Sprinkle steaks with flour and pepper, and rub in, both sides. Heat
oil and quickly cook steaks until juices appear on the top surface,
(about 3 minutes per side). Remove steaks to a warm plate to rest.
Add butter to pan and saute onion and mushrooms for 4 minutes. Add
wine to pan and boil down until almost dry, stirring. Add coconut
milk and stir until it starts to thicken. Stir in mustard. Add salt
to taste. Pour mushroom sauce over steaks, and sprinkle with chopped
coriander. Serve with a side salad.
The original recipe used cream and parsley, but I found the coconut
milk and coriander better complements the kangaroo flavour. Our
local brand of mustard is excellent, but any good German mustard
would do.

Remove the meat from the pan and place in a preheated oven (220 °C ),
for approximately six to seven minutes. Remove kangaroo from the oven
and allow it to stand in a warm place for the same amount of time
that it was cooked. NB: Kangaroo meat expands quickly when subjected
to lots of heat. It needs time to settle and return to shape. The
heat on the outside of the meat is enough to cook the inside of the
meat to perfection.
Kangaroo meat can also be cooked on a very hot barbecue. From: Karen

Choose good heavy meat, a very deep red and lightly marbled with fat.
Cut it, or have it cut, in cubes about 1 to 1 1/2-inches. If you can,
buy the bacon in one thick 1/2-inch slice and cut this into small
cubes. Take your nicest, heavi- est pot; put the bacon in it and let
it brown and render some of its fats until just golden all over.
Remove with a slotted spoon and add the onions. Brown them in the
bacon fat. Remove them and let them wait with the bacon while you
brown the venison.
Brown the meat thoroughly for its juice gives stews their color and
flavor. Toss the meat with a spoon or fork over high heat, seasoning
it well with salt and pepper. Let the juices get quite dark at the
bottom of the pot as you do this. Return the onions and bacon to the
pot and sprinkle the flour over all. Mix with a spoon so the flour
can absorb some of the fat. Give it a chance to brown slightly, then
pour in enough wine to barely cover the meat. Add a good pinch of
thyme, the bay leaf, the parsley and parsley root and the crushed
garlic.
Cover the pot and simmer gently for about 1 1/2 hours. Keep the fire
very low and the pot well covered. Clean the mushrooms, fresh ones if
possible and cut off the bottom of the stems. Don't peel them, it
wastes the mushrooms. Slice them and add them to the stew. Their
fragrance and taste will mix with the sauce. Stir in a tablespoonful
of tomato paste. (The purpose of the tomato paste in this case is
just to thicken slightly and give a rich color to the sauce; so don't
use too much. It should add a little body to the flavor but no tomato
taste.) Simmer for another half hour or so after you have added the
mushrooms and tomato paste. Taste and correct the season- ing, if
necessary.
Note: This is one of those wonderful dishes which tastes even better
reheated. So you can make it the day before.

Pre heat oven to 500 degrees. Cut deep slits in top of roast and
insert garlic slices. Salt and pepper the meat well. Lay a few fat
slices under the roast, put it in preheated oven, and roast 20
minutes or so until you the fat browns. Turn the heat down to
300-325 degrees and roast about 2 1/2 hours.
When done, remove roast and the fat cracklings to a hot pan or
platter.
Gravy:
Retain 2-3 tablespoons of fat in the roasting pan with the drippings
and in it saute the finely chopped onions and celery. Stir in the
flour and herbs. Stir on a low flame until thickens, stir in the
herbs. Add Worcestershire sauce.

4 lb caribou steak
2/3 cup flour
1 vegetable shortening
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon marjoram
1/2 teaspoon savory
1 1/2 onions, sliced
1 green pepper sliced
1/2 rib celery with leaves -
1 chopped
2 cloves garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 cup broth
Pound into the steak as much of the flour as possible. Use a wooden
meat mallet. It not only draws and absorbs meat flavor but thickens
the gravy to the right consistency.
Heat oil, and brown the floured meat on both sides. Do this over a
steady medium heat but brown it well. (It may take 2O-30 minutes to
get properly done). Dust the cayenne pepper and the herbs over the
meat. Scatter sliced onion, pepper slices, and diced celery around
the meat. Add garlic, salt and pepper, and carefully pour the red
wine and broth on, around, and under the steak. Cover closely and
simmer over low heat (225-250 degrees if using an electric skillet)
for about 2 hours or until meat tests tender with a fork.
Baste the meat as often as convenient, turning the steak two or three
times in the process and scraping up and stirring in the browned
flour under the meat in process. Add liquid (hot water or a mix of
hot broth and wine) if need be so the gravy ends up with the right
consistency.

Combine all the ingredients except brisket, pepper and coriander in a pot.
Bring to a boil to dissolve sugar. Cool completely. Add the brisket to the
brine, making sure it is covered by the brine, and let marinate for three
days (best curing temperature is 50 degrees; colder temperatures may slow
curing, warmer temperatures may grow on the top, which is not unsafe). Turn
the meat occasionally.
After three days, remove the bison from the brine, rinse and pat dry.
Coat with the cracked pepper and coriander, place in a smoker and smoke at
200 degrees to an internal temperature of 150 degrees.

3/4 cup masa harina (corn tortilla mix)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup chilled lard or unsalted butter, cu; t into small pieces
3/4 cup well-shaken buttermilk
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
No one is going to ask 'Where's the beef?' when confronted with this chili.
Slowly cooking the meat with lard, peppers, and spices creates a
wonderfully complex sauce that's topped off with tender corn-flavored
dumplings.
Make chili:
Simmer dried chiles in 2 cups water, covered, in a 2-quart heavy saucepan
until very soft, about 20 minutes. Reserve 3/4 cup cooking liquid, then
drain in a colander. Stem chiles (do not remove seeds), then purée in a
blender with reserved cooking liquid until smooth (use caution when
blending hot liquids). Force purée through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl.
Reserve purée.
Pat lamb dry, then sprinkle with pepper and 1 teaspoon salt. Heat 2
tablespoons lard in a 6-quart wide heavy pot or a 3-inch-deep
straight-sided skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking,
then brown lamb in 4 batches (without crowding), turning occasionally,
about 5 minutes per batch. Transfer to a bowl.
Add remaining tablespoon lard to pot, then cook onion, garlic, bay leaves,
and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt over moderate heat, stirring occasionally,
until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add cumin and oregano and cook, stirring
frequently, 1 minute. Stir in reserved chile purée and chipotles and
simmer, stirring frequently and scraping up brown bits from bottom of pot,
5 minutes. Add lamb along with any juices accumulated in bowl and remaining
3 cups water, then bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until
lamb is tender, about 2 1/2 hours.
Make dumplings:
Page 774
Stir together masa harina, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a
bowl. Blend in lard pieces with a pastry blender or your fingertips until
mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk, stirring just until dough is
moistened (do not overmix).
Skim fat off chili and discard bay leaves, then drop 8 or 9 heaping
tablespoons of dough onto simmering chili, about 2 inches apart. Reduce
heat to low and gently simmer, covered, until tops of dumplings are dry to
the touch, 15 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro.
Cooks' note:
Chili is best when made at least 1 day ahead, without dumplings and
cilantro, and can be made 2 days ahead and cooled completely, uncovered,
then chilled, covered. Discard fat from surface and reheat stew before
adding dumplings and sprinkling with cilantro.

*Note: Adobe Bread is a yeast bread, made in the outdoor ovens called
hornos, in the Southwest. It is sold on the Plaza by Native American
vendors in Santa Fe, New Mexico however, if this bread is not
available to you, any yeast non-sour dough bread can be used and made
into the bread crumbs for this recipe.
To make the stuffed chiles, roast, peel and seed the chiles, keeping
them whole for stuffing. Set aside. Heat the oil in a large skillet
over medium heat and saute the onions about 4 minutes, until
translucent. Add the ground lamb and brown 15 minutes, stirring
occasionally to prevent burning. Drain off the excess fat and add the
bread crumbs, tomatoes, garlic, salt, pepper, and herbs. Decrease the
heat and simmer another 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
Slice the chiles lengthwise, spread them open on a work surface and
generously stuff each chile with the lamb mixture. Place the stuffed
chiles on an oiled baking pan with the open side down and set aside.
To make the puree, heat the oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat.
Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and cook
another 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, until
the excess liquid evaporates. The sauce will reduce and thicken. At
this point you can pour the sauce through a fine sieve to remove the
skins or you can serve the sauce as it is. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the stuffed chiles in the
baking dish in the oven and heat until hot, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Serve immediately with the tomato puree. Garnish with sour cream, if
desired.

Place meat, onion and garlic in a large heavy skillet or Dutch oven.
Cook until light colored. Add oregano, cumin, water, chili powder,
tomatoes, hot pepper sauce (more or less to taste), and salt. Bring
to a boil, lowering heat, and simmer for one hour. Skim off fat
during cooking. AUTHOR'S NOTE: Even more fat can be removed if chili
is stored in refrigerator, allowing fat to rise to the top and
solidify, when it can be easily removed. LBJ preferred venison in his
chili, and so did his doctor, because it is so lean and fat-free.
Ground beef heart is leaner still, and has a rich beef flavor with
the added value of high Vit B content. This recipe was tailored to
President Johnson after his first heart attack. Not only is it
relatively fat-free, it calls for lean venison, when available.The
local pronunciation of Pedernales is Purd-in-alice, and in this case
local extends at least from Texas to Washington,D.C., to New York

Prepare the duck. Place a sheet of aluminum foil over the broiler
pan, then heat oven to broil. Cut the duck breast in half
lengthwise; pat the 1 pieces dry with paper towels and score each by
cutting a diamond pattern lightly into the skin and fat. Transfer to
a small dish or bowl.
In a small bowl, combine the garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon
pepper, lemon juice and balsamic; stirring constantly with a small
whisk or fork, slowly pour in the olive oil. Pour this mixture over
the duck breast 1 pieces, making sure it coats all surfaces. Set
aside.
Add 1/2 cup broth. Stir almost constantly with a wooden spoon and
keep the broth at a gentle simmer. Add more broth as the liquid is
absorbed, about 1/3 cup at a time. The rice should not be submerged
in broth, nor should the pan become dry. It will take 18 to 20
minutes to cook the rice to the al dente stage (still slightly firm
in the center).

Spread the zucchini on the foil-lined broiler pan and broil until
soft, 4 to 5 minutes, stirring once or twice. (As an alternative, the
zucchini may be steamed ahead and simply added to the risotto without
reheating.)
Slice duck breast half crosswise into seven or eight slices. Mound
risotto in the center of two warmed soup or dinner plates and place
duck 1 slices against the sides of the risotto.
To prepare sage, cut away stems, then roll leaves tightly, cigarette

1 step one
4 lb venison steak, well trimmed
1 and cut into; 1/4
1 inch dice
1 grease, rendered from salt
1 pork
1 step two
1/2 lb jimmy dean sausage
1 regular flavor
1/2 lb ground sirloin
1 step three
2 large onions; diced
2 cup green bell peppers; diced
2 large cloves garlic; minced
2 tablespoon cumin seeds
2 tablespoon ground cumin
1 step four
16 oz canned mexican tomato sauce
1 faraon brand, not
1 hot variety
2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chile powder
1 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper powder
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 step five
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves; chopped
2 fresh jalapeno chiles; seeded and minced
1/2 cup coors beer
In a large skillet heat the grease from the salt pork and saute the
diced flank steak in small batches until all the liquid is gone and
the meat is lightly browned. As you brown it transfer it to a large
pot with a tight fitting lid and set aside. Continue until all the
flank steak is browned. In another pot cook the ground sirloin and
sausage and drain off any excess grease. Add the onion, bell pepper,
garlic, cumin seed and ground cumin. Cook the mixture over moderate
heat stirring constantly for approximately 5 to 10 minutes or until
the onion is softened. Add the tomato sauce, salt, chile powder,
cayenne pepper and the crushed red pepper and cook over moderate heat
for about 5 to 10 minutes while stirring. Add the sausage mixture,
the cilantro, the jalapenos and the beer to the pot with the flank
steak and cook covered over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 1 to
1 1/2 hours or until the meat is very tender. This chile is meant to
be thick but if it starts to dry out too much while cooking it can be
moistened with a little more beer or a small amount of chicken broth.
Serve with grated jack cheese, minced onions, fresh lime slices or
minced hot chiles as condiments. Makes about 8 servings.

The large horns of cows and steers have many uses besides the well
known powder horn. When horns are soaked in hot water for a time they
Page 807
become soft and flexible, much like fingernails do when they are kept
in dishwater. These flexible horns can be cut and flattened out to
make many translucent plastic-like objects. Some of the most common
uses for horn were for making combs, lantern (from "lant- horn")
"glass", and horn cups.

GREAT! My family loves to eat deer but the kids and wife all agree
that this is their favorite.
I have never tried variations on this recipe (ie cook in the oven,
table syrup instead of maple, etc). I guess that variations would
work, but why ruin a sure thing?

Place beans in a large pot and cover them with water completely. Soak
overnight. In the morning drain and cover with fresh cold water. Cook
beans in liquid, over low heat for 2 to 3 hours until tender, adding
more water as needed to keep beans from sticking. Drain water from
beans.
Place salt port or bacon on the bottom and sices of a 1 1/2 quart
baking dish. In a mixing bowl, combine beans, syrup, molasses, and
mustard. If using bacon, you may want to add a little salt. Pour bean
mixture into baking dish and bake, covered, at 300 degress F. for 2

Again, wild duck breasts are preferred, but domestic duck (inquire at
your supermarket for farm-raised moulard duck breasts or other top
quality duck) can be used as well. My duck-hunter friends like to
grill wild duck to rare to medium-rare (the taste is marvelous), but
you can cook them a little longer if you can't stand the sight of
blood.
Rinse the duck breasts in cool water and pat dry. Rub the breasts
with the oil, then season with salt, black pepper and cayenne. Set
aside.
When the charcoal is gray and hot, lay the breasts on the grill.
Grill for about seven minutes (time will vary depending on the size
and thickness of the breasts as well as the type of breasts you are
using), then turn and grill for seven to eight minutes for rare to
medium-rare. Cook longer if desired.
Transfer the breasts to a cutting board and slice thinly on the bias.
To serve, put the breasts on dinner plates and spoon the sauce over
them. Makes four servings.

1 chopped
2 garlic cloves
2 sticks cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon powdered thyme
4 bay leaves -- (4 to 5)
1 pinch sage
1 venison roast
1 good red wine
1 teaspoon ground
Pour the bottle of red wine and wine vinegar into a nonmetallic
container. Bruise the peppercorns, or add a good teaspoon of ground
black pepper if whole corns aren't available. Then add the following:
salt, cloves, onion slices, 2 handfuls of chopped celery stalks and
leaves, garlic cloves, sticks of cinnamon, bay leaves and a pinch of
sage. Let the meat marinate in this in a cool place. Pat the meat dry
after taking it from the marinade. Strain the marinade and use some
of the liquid in basting, or where a stew or pot roast requires
moisture. This is a rather mild marinade and although such a marinade
does modify the flavor of venison, it does not alter it beyond the
point of recognition, as might be expected from the list of
ingredients.

Fry enough bacon very gently to extract enough fat to fry the
medallions. Remove the bacon. Put enough well-seasoned flour into a
plastic bag and toss the venison in it: remove and lay on some
greaseproof paper. Heat the bacon fat and fry the meat on a medium
heat for 5-7 minutes, turning frequently. Put them in a warmed dish
with a teaspoon of jelly on each medallion and keep warm while you
make the sauce.
Depending on how much you are cooking, add enough of the stock to the
pan. Boil briskly, stirring all the juices together. When it starts
to look syrupy, mix in enough sour cream to make a rich sauce. Adjust
the seasoning. Pour over the venison.
Serve with tiny Brussels sprouts and egg noodles with chestnuts if
handy. Apple sauce can also be added as a side dish.

MELANA'S DOLMAS
Made my own with the wild grape leaves I had harvested and stored the
spring before. As usual I don't measure anything but I will give you a
rough idea what I did in case you want to try this yourself
sometime...and my advice is to try these if you never have....they
are fantastic.
I took hamburger, saffron rice I had made the day before, Shaggy mane
mushrooms (finely diced), one medium onion (diced), one egg and a
half a handful of oatmeal to make the conglomeration hold together
easier, a couple of cloves of garlic (minced), fresh parsley
(minced), fresh crushed pepper and a bit of salt. (A person could
easily add wild greens, nettle, dandelion or the likes to this
recipe.) This all took on the consistency of a meatloaf and I formed
little 2 inch long by 3/4 of an inch in diameter cylinders that I
wrapped in grape leaves like an egg-roll. No need to poke the mess
with a toothpick to hold it together since it all held together quit
well. I laid these in a dish that was lightly coated with oil and
baked them at 350F for about a half hour. I served them with
additional saffron rice and a light wine and rosemary sauce. Yum!
Harvesting and preserving wild grape leaves is very easy. You want to
select well formed but immature leaves that are free of bug damage and
pesticides. I licked onto a mass of leaves that where bigger than
both my hands together and still had the pale green I associate with
immature leaves. I could of made Dolmas the size of cabbage rolls if
I had taken a mind to. Anyway...bring your collected leaves home,
blanch them for 30 seconds or so in boiling water and lay them out
flat with a sprinkle of salt on each leaf. Layer them as such and
store them in the freezer in a container or zip-lock bag. Mine were
over 9 months old and still in perfect shape. Do rinse the salt from
the leaves before using them in your recipe.

Heat the olive oil and butter in a large heavy skillet over medium

Place the cooked venison on a warm platter and keep it warm while you

add the brandy and de-glaze the pan. Observe caution when adding
brandy to a hot pan and do this away from open flames to avoid
flaming the brandy dangerously. Cook the brandy over low heat for 1
minute before adding the wine. Reduce the wine by half, add the
stock, bring quickly to the boil and then swsirl in the cream for 1
minute. Add the medallions back to the finished sauce along with the
remaining psppercorns and re-heat for 1 minute. Serve immediately.

1 venison roast
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 or 4 peppercorns
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon basil
1/4 teaspoon oregano
The first step is to thaw the roast. If your butcher is like mine,
he will usually leave you with a couple of odd shaped roasts. These
are good prospects for Bambi Italiano. Let them thaw completely and
trim off as much fat as you can.
After an hour, take the roast out of the casserole. The broth now
has most of the fat in it; you can discard the broth, or as I do, let
it cool and put it on the dog's dinner.
Rinse out the casserole, put the roast back into it, and cover the
roast with spagetti sauce. I use Prego extra- chunky for this
recipe. It may take 1 or 2 jars of sauce to cover the roast,
depending on how well the roast fills the casserole. I usually add
another bay leaf and a little more oregano at this stage.
Then re-cover the casserole, put it back in the microwave and nuke it
for another 8 or 10 minutes at high and 15 to 20 minutes at defrost
or medium.
Slice the roast; serve the meat and sauce over spagetti or egg
noodles, witha nice bottle of Chianti.

I place them pointy end down on a bed of rock salt, give them a hit of
pepper, a dab of butter and run them under the broiler for just a few
minutes.
One of the best up here is moon snails. These are burrowing snails
that dig thru the sand in search of clams. The shells are the size of
a softball. Cut away the large foot, slice it thin and pound it well.
Fried quickly it tastes just like abalone.
I also do the same with oyster drills, but it takes a lot of them to
make a meal.
Another tasty one is chitons, which look like giant legless sowbugs.
The foot actually improves in flavor by being frozen.
Cockles are easy to collect as they lie just below the surface. They
tend to be a bit chewy, but have the best flavor.
Two types of oysters; the pacific and the world famous Quilicine. Two

16 peppercorns
2 cloves
----DEMI GLACE----
24 veal bones
2 carrots
1 stick celery
1 onion
1/4 leek

Ground venison, run twice through the grinder (and only AFTER
freezing, never before), may be used in all the varied ways of using
hamburger. This is easily the most versatile form in which to use
venison, and one that disguises a variety of of shortcomings in the
meat--from excessive age and lack of fat to an overly strong flavor.
Grinding venison into hamburger is the ultimate tenderizer.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Use a sharp, pointed knife to make eight
jabs in the roast, somewhat evenly spaced, to insert the garlic. Put the
water or broth in the bottom of a shallow roasting pan, then the sliced
onion, with the roast on top of the onion. Season the with salt and pepper
(fresh ground if possible).
Mix the butter and mustard together, brush the roast with the mixture and
sprinkle with marjoram/oregano. Bake uncovered for 1 hour. Check and baste
roast. This is the time to add any extras like potatoes, carrots or more
onions. Continue roasting for about 1 1/2 hours more, checking and basting
every so often. If the broth or water evaporates, add a little more. When
done, put roast on a serving plate and add a little flour to the pan juices
to make a light gravy

Cook beef (elk or deer meat) in about 1 quart of water. Let it simmer
for about 3 hours or until meat is well done. Salt to taste. Shell
acorns and grind them into very fine flour until you have
approximately 3/4 cup of flour. Strain the broth from the meat (it
will be used later). Shred the meat and, placing it in a wooden bowl,
mix it with the acorn flour. (Note: metal utensils or bowl will
discolor the flour) Pour hot broth over the mixture and stir. It is
now ready to serve in individual bowls. Usually served with fry bread.

1 bear meat
Cut the meat in strips and dry before the fire. Hang these strips
across the rafters of the cabin on a basswood strip to keep dry all
winter. It is best to cover the dried meat with a cloth if you have
one. When you get ready to eat the bear meat, take it off the stick,
beat it in the corn beather until it is like cornmeal. Put this in a
pot of plain water and boil until the soup tastes good. Eat this with
mush if you want it to taste the best.

10 roast chiles
3 roasted green bell peppers
5 roasted tomatoes
3 lb lean boneless pork or lamb
1 seasoned flour
1 hot lard
2 chopped onions
2 centiliter garlic
1 flour to make a roux
1 chicken broth
1 cumin
1 mexican oregano
After the chiles have cooled a bit, I peel and seed them, and cut
them into coarse dice. I sometimes (not always) will also roast/peel
5-6 tomatoes to place in the chiles, but tomatoes are optional in
this dish, and I usually don't use 'em.
Coat the meat in seasoned flour, and brown it in hot lard. Remove
from the pan and set aside. Toss a couple of chopped onions into the
pot, along with a clove or two of garlic. When the onions are
golden, I add enough flour to make a roux, and cook until the roux is
light brown.
I then add chicken broth to make a fairly thin gravy, the pork,
chiles, tomatoes (if used), and season the dish with cumin and
Mexican oregano.
Simmer for a couple of hours, until the pork is tender and the
flavors have blended. The end dish should have a pronounced green
chile/pepper flavor and be the consistancy of a thick stew. It's
very good by itself, or as a filling for burritos/soft tacos, and is
wonderful reheated the next morning and served as a side dish with
scrambled eggs for breakfast. Wes, for some bizarre reason, likes it
over rice...

Here's one from Stephen Pyles' New Tastes from Texas Cookbook
(Clarkson Potter/Publishers, 1998). He does say, "We have a saying
in Texas: If you have beans about Texas, you know Texas chili has no
beans. But this is, after all, _New Tastes from Texas_...." He
serves it with goat cheese crema and a Southern salsa, called "slang
jang." Hope this exotic enough for you.
Add the stock and beer; bring to a boil. Add the black beans and
epazote. Reduce the heat and let simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until
the meat beans are perfectly tender, stirring occasionally. Add more
stock throughout the cooking process, if necessary, to keep the meat
and beans covered. Whisk in the masa harina and cilantro. Season
with salt and pepper to taste and garnish with Goat Cheese Creme and
Slang Jang.

To prepare the venison: remove the skin and bones from the fillets
and trim the fillets. Reserve trimmings and bones for the stock.
Combine all the marinade ingredients together and place in the
venison fillets and marinate overnight. To make the stock: place all
the venison trimmings from the saddle in a baking dish with a little
butter and cook until well browned, turning the trimmings
occasionally. Add the vegetables, strained from the marinade, and
brown with the meat and bones. When well browned, add the liquid
marinade, tomato paste and the bouquet garni. Simmer for 1 hour
without covering, skimming any froth that forms on the top. Strain
and set aside. To cook the venison: remove from the marinade, wipe
dry and cut in 8 noisettes. Season with salt and pepper. Melt butter
in a trying pan and fry the venison, searing quickly on each side and
leaving rare in the middle. Remove noisettes to a warm place to rest.
To make the sauce: deglaze the frying pan with the brandy, add stock
and bring to the boil. Reduce until it thickens slightly. Reduce
heat, add cream and beat in the butter. Finally add redcurrant jelly

28 oz moose meat
3 tablespoon fresh thyme
2 teaspoon butter
1 salt
1 pepper
1 sauce:
2 shallots
1 oz dried or
7 oz fresh forest mushrooms
4 tablespoon olive oil
1 2/3 cup red wine
3 3/8 cup stock
1 tablespoon parsley
1 tablespoon chives
1 3/8 oz butter
Part the meat into steaks - 180-200 grams each. Chop thyme, and
drizzle over steaks with salt and pepper. Fry the steaks on both
sides in butter for 2-3 minutes. They should by now have a pink
center. Let the steaks rest before serving.
Sauce: Chop onions and fry in olive oil with (coarsely chopped)
mushrooms. Pour red wine over, and let reduce until about 25% is
left. Add stock and reduce until about half is left. Whip in butter,
and add salt and pepper to taste. Chop parsley and chives, and add
right before serving. Serve with butter-steamed root vegetables.

Carve the meat into slices of about 1.5 to 2 cm thick, beat them with
your hand s and press them into shape. Preheat the frying pan and melt
some butter in it. B rown the butter before adding the meat. Fry the
steaks on both sides. Whale meat should be fried for about 4-5 minutes
on each side. The steaks taste best when th ey are medium rare, but
they should be warmed right through and not eaten raw. Se rve the
steaks on a plate, place an onion ring on each of them and fill it
with p eppers, parsley and gherkins. Potato scollops taste good
together with the steaks . Serve with a bowl of good, crisp lettuce
and salad.

Wash meat well and cup up in one-inch cubes, removing all fat. Pat
dry and pack quart jars until full. Do not add water or salt. Secure
lids and process for 90 minutes at 10 lbs. pressure. The venison
will make its own juice and a layer of fat will be on top. This will
keep for a long time and can be used for several dishes, such as
vegetable and venison stew. Or, you can turn out the contents of a
jar into a skillet and warm well. Make gravy and cook potatoes and
you have a meal.

I have an old (to me) recipe that came from my grandmother. My personal
feeling is that the simpler the recipe, the better when it comes to
vegetables. I prefer fresh vegetables, but have used the frozen products
if time is tight. I believe S&W is the brand I have used.
In heavy pot brown bacon, add onion and sweat til barely translucent. Add
beans and corn and 1/4 cup water (omit if using frozen), cover and cook at
least 1/2 hour on medium-low. Add salt and pepper after about 10 minutes
of cooking time. My grandmother used to cook it for hours, so it's
basically up to you how done you want it, I prefer mine fresher tasting.
You can also have a little dish of chopped Thyme at the table to sprinkle.
This has been part of our Thanksgiving meal for as long as I can remember.
Place first seven ingredients in a large stew pan with lid. Cover and
simmer for 2 hours. Add potatoes, carrots, mushrooms and parsley
flakes. Simmer covered for another 45 minutes or until all is tender.
Blend flour and cold water and add to stew. Cook until thickened.

OVEN JERKY
1 meat
1 liquid smoke
1 water
1 salt
Use any red meat - venison, elk, antelope, wild sheep or even beef.
Trim meat removing all fat. Cut into long strips anywhere from 4-8
inches in lenfth. Dilute liquid smoke in water using 2 parts liquid
smoke to 1 part water. Dip each strip of meat in this solution and
lay in flat glass dish. When you have 1 layer or meat in the dish,
liberally sprinkle table salt on the meat so you see the salt. Repeat
this process until the dish is about 3/4 full. If you have more
meat, use another dish, as this solution will become quite juicy and
may overflow a dish that is too full. Cover each dish with plastic
wrap and set in a cool place for at least 12-24 hours. In a very cool
oven, about 140F or lower if possible, lay the strips (unrinsed) on
your oven racks. Place as many racks in your oven as possible to
conserve energy. Set a flat pan convered with tinfoil under the
bottom rack to catch the drips. Bake for 10-12 hours or until meat is
free of moisture, but not brittle. Stor in jar or place in freezer
for longer storage. This recipe is ideal to use for all those scraps
you hate to waste or if your family is not fond of ground game. The
better trimmed the meat is, the less chewy. If you like spicer
jerky, just add pepper to marinade, but try it without first, you may
find this spicy enough. Excellent for snacks for your hunter of
school aged children. Origin: A Taste of Oregon Shared by: Sharon

PANFRIED QUAIL
1 cup white grapes (to make 1/4 to 1/3 cu; p grape juice)
2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
8 quart split and flattened
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup virginia ham, cut into 2 by 1/4 inc; h matchsticks
First, make the fresh white grape juice. Crush the cup of grapes in a
pestle, then put through a sieve or vegetable mill to extract the
juice, or use a potato ricer.
Combine the salt, pepper, and thyme, crushing the thyme with your
fingertips. Sprinkle both sides of the birds with the seasonings.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat until it foams
and just begins to brown. Add the quail, skin-side down. Sprinkle
with ham, cover and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the skin is golden
brown. Turn the birds and continue cooking, covered, until the juices
run clear, about 4 minutes longer. Take the pan from the heat and
let the quail rest, covered, for about 10 minutes. Arrange the quail
on a platter and sprinkle the ham from the pan over them.
Pour the fat from the pan. Add the grape juice (you can also use
water, if you prefer), and bring to a boil. Cook for 1 minute,
scraping the browned bits from the bottom to deglaze the pan. Pour
over the quail and serve.
Serves 4.

bring to a boil, simmer for 15 minutes and drain. Spread the cabbage
leaves on a big dish and season with coarse salt and freshly ground
pepper. Brown the partridges quickly in a little lard. Line a large
casserole with bacon and a third of the cabbage leaves. Lay the
partridges, carrot, onion and bouquet garni on top. Cover with half
of the the remaining cabbage, follow with a layer of sliced pork,
chipolatas and garlic sausage. Cover with the rest of the cabbage,
add stock to cover sausage and bring to a boil. Add 3 tablespoons of
stock to the roasting pan juice and pour over the cabbage. Cover with
a piece of buttered paper cut to the same size as the casserole, then
with a lid, and braise for another 15 minutes, then remove pork.
Continue to braise for 1 5 more minutes or until partridges are
tender. Drain the cabbage thoroughly and place in the middle of a
serving dish. Put the partridges on top, surround with chipolatas,
sliced sausage, pork and vegetables. Serve a little of the cooking
liquid as a sauce.

Catch a fresh jackrabbit around December. (If none are available, purchase
one
at a supermarket.) Clean and cut rabbit into large pieces. Place on grill
over
red coals, and add mesquite chips to the fire. Put a lid over the rabbit
and
smoke slowly for 1/2 hour or so, turning halfway through. Be careful not to
overcook-- rabbits have very little fat and will dry out quickly.

I combine all the ingredients in a blender, mix with the sliced beef
or venison in a white trash bag that I can close with a twist tie
(but I set it in a stainless steel bowl to avoid messes). Put in the
fridge 24 - 36 hours, overhaul at least twice. Dry by your method of
choice, I like a dehydrator set at 125 F. Takes ablout 15 hours to
dry.

PAUPIETTES OF VENISON
1/8 lb mushrooms
1 egg
2 small onions, finely chopped
1/4 lb bacon, cut into small
1 pieces
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
2 cloves garlic
1 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped lemon peel
1 tablespoon bread crumbs
1 flour
1 bacon drippings
1 salt and pepper
1 one teaspoon thyme
1 handful of fresh parsley,
1 minced
Fry the onions, mushrooms and bacon in a little dripping. Mix in the
lemon peel, breadcrumbs, parsley and seasoning, and a beaten egg.
Flatten out each piece of venison. Season with pepper, salt and
thyme. On each slice, lay a bit of the stuffing, roll up the meat and
secure with a toothpick or tie with string.
Roll them in flour and brown them in bacon drippings. Add water,
just to cover, and simmer very slowly for 10 minutes. Crush the
garlic and add this and the mustard to the sauce. Cook for another
30 minutes at a slow simmer. The sauce should be creamy.

For the amount of soup you want to make, take stew size beef chunks
from the store and cut them in half. Optional: Use lean ground beef
(80%+) in place of beef chunks; avoid fatty ground beef. You want a
good, strong beef flavored broth or the corn soup will be sweet
flavored from the corn. Boil water for the amount of soup you want to
prepare. When water is at the boiling point, drop in the determined
quantity of half-sized beef chunks of meat. Add salt and pepper to
taste. Boil the meat until the broth has a brownish color to it.
(Meat may be tender when the broth is light but for the real meat and
corn flavor, it should be cooked until the broth is brownish.)
Optional: While the meat is boiling, add the raw onions and raw
potatoes if you choose. After the broth has reached the brownish
color, add the quantity of dried corn you wish to cook. Cook for
30-45 minutes until soft and tender. The dried corn will absorb the
beef flavor as it cooks. For more of a taste of eating dried corn,
cook the corn about 30 minutes; corn will have more firmness to it.
Optional: If your potatoes are already boiled, add them in the last
10-15 minutes of cooking the corn. Serve Corn Soup soupy as a meal or
drain the soup and serve corn and beef as a side dish.

For the venison: In a food processor, pulse the pecans until they are
coarse and are still textured. (Do not puree the pecans because the
crust will be too wet) Add the bread crumbs and Essence. Season each
medallion with salt and pepper. Rub each medallion with the Creole
mustard, coating each side completely. Crust each medallion with the
pecan crust. (Every inch of the medallion needs to be crusted
completely). For the mash: The potatoes should be roasted for 40
minutes at 425 degrees. Remove skin from the roasted sweet potatoes
and place in a sauce pot. Over low heat, partially mash the sweet
potatoes. Add the cream, bourbon and butter, continue to mash until
all the ingredients are incorporated and the potatoes are smooth but
with small lumps. Season with salt and pepper. To finish the venison:
In a sauce pan, heat the olive oil. When the oil is smoking hot, add
the venison. Saute for 3 minutes for medium rare on each side.

COOK BIRDS: Split pheasant down the breastbone (or have your butcher
do this). Rinse the halves, place in a deep pot and barely cover
with water. Add bay leaf, onion, carrot, celery, salt and peppercorns.
Bring to rolling boil, then turn down heat and simmer for
approximately 30 minutes, or until tender. Remove foam and scum as
it forms. Remove bird(s) from broth, reserving the broth.
MAKE GRAVY: While the birds are in the oven, strain the broth and
boil rapidly down to about 2 cups.
Brown the mushrooms using the same skillet in which you browned the
pheasant. Remove the mushrooms and keep them warm.
When the pheasants are cooked, remove them from the oven and scrape
the herbs from the skin. After placing the pheasant halves on a warm
platter (or leaving them in the casserole), pour the gravy over the
pheasant. Garnish with the chopped nutmeats and serve. This dish is
particularly good with wild rice.
NOTES:
: Difficulty: easy once you have the all the ingredients ready.
: Time: 40 minutes preparation, 80 minutes cooking.
: Precision: measure the spices.

Heat the oil, add the onions and garlic and cook for a couple of
minutes, then add the grated lemon rind, plenty of pepper, the leaves
from the thyme sprigs, or dried thyme, and the port. Let the mixture
boil fast for 3-4 minutes then take the pan off the heat and leave to
cool completely.
In a bowl, mix together the diced game, the pork sausage meat and
the cold port wine mixture, using your hands to mix thoroughly -
messy, I know, but the only way to mix properly. Cover the bowl and
leave in a cool place for several hours, or overnight - the longer
the better.
Pack the game mixture into the terrine and cover with foil. Put the
terrine into a roasting tin and add enough water to the tin to come
halfway up the sides of the terrine. Cook in a preheated moderate oven
(3500F/ 1800C /gas 4) for 1 3/4-2 hours.
Take the terrine out of the water when the cooking time is up.

PICADILLO TACOS
This Latin American and Southwest spicy mixture of minced meat makes a
great dish for a crowd when you double or triple this recipe. It can be
served plain or as you would serve tacos with all the accessories.
Sauté the onion, garlic and a wee bit of oil in a large heavy pan. When
they are soft, add the green peppers and the jalapenos and cook for just a
couple of minutes. Add the ground beef and brown it, then stir in the
tomatoes, tomato paste, water, oregano, salt and pepper. Simmer this on low
for about 15 minutes. Stir in the raisins, almonds and olives. Heat

advance. Refrigerate or freeze until needed.
3 lb salt
1/2 cup molasses or brown sugar
2 gal water
1/2 teaspoon saltpeter
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
It is best to cut the meat into 4-6 lb pieces. Have a barrel ready
and spread a layer of Salt on the bottom. Rub ea ch piece of the meat
with a mixture of Salt and Pepper and pack down in layers, covering
ea ch with a layer of Salt. The top layer should be of Salt. Let

of the ingredi- ents together, using 1 recipe for ea ch 25 lb s of
meat. (Dissolve the ingredients in the 2 gallons of Water stirring
until the Salt is dissolved. Test with an Egg; if it floats, fine, if
not, add more Salt.) Pour over the packed Salted meat and if
necessary pour on more Water to cover the meat. Invert a dish over it
and put a heavy weight on it, to be sure that the meat will not
float. It may be used in 2-3 weeks. For 100 lb s of meat double all
of the ingredients.

PIKANTE REHFILETSCHNITTEN
In a small mixing bowl, combine the red wine, water, sliced onion,
shallots, cinnamon, bay leaf, clove, parsley, thyme, salt and a few
grindings of pepper. Arrange the venison slices in one layer in a
shallow baking dish and pour the marinade over them, turning the
steaks to moisten them thoroughly. Marinate at room temperature for
at least 2 hours, turning the steaks once or twice.
Preheat the oven to 300°. Remove the steaks from the marinade and
pat them thoroughly dry. Set the marinade aside. In a heavy 10- to
12-inch skillet, melt the butter over moderate heat. When the foam
subsides, add the venison steaks and brown them for 2 or 3 minutes on
each side, regulating the heat so they color quickly and evenly and
without burning. Transfer the steaks to a shallow baking casserole or
baking dish just large enough to hold them comfortably in one layer,
and set them aside.
Strain the marinade through a fine sieve set over a bowl, pressing
down hard on the vegetables with the back of a spoon before discarding
them. Add the flour to the fat remaining in the skillet, and cook
over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until the flour browns
lightly. Gradually pour in the strained marinade, chicken stock and
brandy. Stirring constantly with a whisk, bring it to a boil,
continuing to stir until the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened.
Taste for seasoning. Pour the sauce over the venison steaks and bake
in the middle of the oven for 10 minutes, basting them occasionally
with pan juices. Serve at once, directly from the casserole, or on a
large heated platter.

Pass the pork shoulder and venison through the medium die of a
grinder for a coarse grind. Place the chicken liver in the bowl of a
food processor and pulse to a fine paste. Combine the liver, pork and
venison in a large bowl that has been chilled in the refrigerator.
Chop the onion, garlic, thyme and parsley in the processor until very
fine and add to the meats in the cold bowl. Combine the salt, pepper,
eggs, cream, brandy, flour, cinnamon and mace and add to the meat
mixture. Mix well and chill the entire mixture for 30 minutes.
Line a large loaf tin with plastic wrap, pour the terrine mixture in,
tamping down to insure an even layer. Cook the terrine in a water
bath in the oven by heating some water in a tea kettle, place the
prepared terrine into a roasting pan set in the oven, and pour the
hot water into the roasting pan, being careful not to get any water
into the terrine. Bake for about 90 minutes or until the meat reaches
an internal temperature of 155 degrees. Remove from the oven and
cool. Place a sheet of plastic wrap over the terrine, poking holes in
the plastic so that hot air can escape. Place 2 to 3 pounds of weight
(such as dry beans still in the bag) on top of the plastic wrap to
weigh down and compress the terrine and refrigerate overnight.
Remove from the oven and cool. Refrigerate overnight and serve cold
with mustard, pickles and green bean salad.

NOTES : If you live in hunting country, here's a new taste for Roast
venison. Rowanberry jelly is made from the red berries of the rowan
tree (mountain ash). This is a sacred tree in Scotland; it averts
disaster and keeps evil spirits away, which is why it is so common in
Scottish Highland and Nova Scotian gardens.

water for you broth. This will save you time and allow the cooking
preparation process to go smoothly. Char, dice and set aside while you chop
garlic onions and measure dry spices.
Gather all items and prepare to cook.
POSOLESTEW
By: Navajo
Because we don't have the taste for such hot foods up north here as they do
in the southwest, when I make this posole I omit the jalapenos entirely,
and added the cilantro to Marilyn's recipe. I cook up a bowl of hotter
sauce for those who like it, and serve a (small) bowl of chopped jalapenos
on the side for the real cast-iron gullets among us. I probably never will
make the 2-day posole on the IHS server (seems kind of like you either have
to live on a rach or in a sururban house with a backyard barbeque), but
I've made Marilyn's many times, once 10 times the amount (in 4 pots) for a
large crowd.

1 goose
1 some onions and garlic
1 salt, pepper
1 worchestershire sauce
1 oil
1 chopped onions, garlic,
1 celery
Finely chop up some onions and garlic. About as small as you can.
Season it with salt, pepper and whistacher (how do you spell that!)
sauce. Make slits in the front of the goose breast next to the
wishbone down the length of the breast. Stuff the onions and garlic
mixture into the slits.
Place enough oil in the pot you plan to pot roast the goose so that
the oil is about 1/4" deep. Bring the oil to heat then place the
goose in the oil and sear it all around. This will help keep the
moisture in the goose.
Once the goose is seared remove from the oil and then add coursely
chopped onions, garlic, celery (and anything else you would like in
the gravy) to the oil. Saute the vegtables for a while. Once the
onions start to soften and turn clean, replace the goose and add
water. Once the water starts to boil, reduce heat to low and cover.
Every 20 minutes or so, check on the goose. Add water often and baste
the goose every time. Also turn goose every other basting.
Slow wet heat is very important to how this dish will turn out. Do
not add too much water at first and DO NOT LET WATER BOIL OUT. Keep
adding a little water every so often.
How long will it take to cook. A long time (3 hours or more)! The
goose will be done when you can stick a fork into the breast and
flake the meat out.

PRARIE DOG
recipe
When I was 15 (1965), I stayed with an uncle who asked me to go hunt some
prarie dogs to eat. I thought he was kidding, but when he gave me the
single shot .22 I realized he was serious. I returned with 8 P Dogs and
this is how it was prepared. PDog was; 1. Gutted and singed clean of body
hair (fur?). 2. Diced potatoes, onions, chili, and assorted veggies which
were prepared in a paste-like manner were inserted into the PDog abdominal
cavity. 3. Laid out in head-to-toe fashion in a gunny-sack like
material(wet). 4. A small pit 2ft x 1ft x 8 inches was dug under a open
fire which had been already buring while the preparations were made. 5.
PDogs were placed in the pit and covered with earth, and a fire built over
it again. Approximatly 3 hours later,.... YUMMMMMIEEEE. Contrary to the
proverbial common saying, '......IT TASTES LIKE CHICKEN', it tasted like
Porcipine.

rice (optional.)
The pine nuts generally taste better if, before they're added to the mix,
you put them on a ungreased cookie sheet in the oven for about 10 minutes
at about 350-400 degrees. It roasts them a little.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare the small pumpkins as though you
were making jackolanterns, cutting off and reserving top, scooping
out seeds and reserving, but stopping short of carving the face. Set
aside. Repeat preparation with the medium pumpkin, then cut it into
wedges along its natural grooves. Peel each wedge with a sharp swivel
peeler. Cut flesh into 2-inch chunks and set aside. In a small bowl
combine ground spices with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
Sprinkle this mixture into pumpkin cavities, dividing evenly. Cut 1
tablespoon butter into bits and divide between pumpkins. Replace
pumpkin tops and place pumpkins in a shallow roasting pan. Roast 30
to 40 minutes until tender when pierced with a knife but still
intact. Remove from oven and set aside.
While pumpkins are roasting, prepare the soup: Heat remaining butter
along with olive oil over mediumhigh heat in large pot or Dutch oven
until foamy. Add onions and remaining salt and pepper and cook 5
minutes until softened and begin to color. Add garlic and cook 1
minute to release flavor. Add diced potato, chunked pumpkin flesh and
stock and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes until
potatoes and pumpkin are completely soft. Pass soup through a food
mill fitted with the fine blade into a clean pot. Whisk in cream,
taste and adjust seasoning and set aside.
Roasted pumpkins and soup should be done at about the same time. To
serve, remove tops from pumpkins and use a melon baller to scoop
balls of pumpkin flesh, leaving them in their respective pumpkins.
Carefully ladle soup into each pumpkin, filling about 2/3 full.
Replace pumpkin tops, place each pumpkin on a plate, and serve.

1 1/2 cup red bell pepper
1 cup celery
1 clove garlic
1 stick of butter
1 lb crawfish tail meat
1 spice mixtures:
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon red pepper (cayenne)
1 teaspoon salt
2 bay leaves
You'll need a brace of quail per person. Pluck and draw the birds;
don't even think about skinning them.
Crawfish Dressing:
You'll need about three or four cups of stock. I make my stock from
scratch using crawfish shells/heads, onion, garlic, carrots and
water. Use about six cups of water to make 3 cups of stock. Bring
ingredients to a boil and simmer until reduced to 3 to 4 cups. NOTE:
you can use can chicken or duck stock if you can't find whole
crawfish (many places will sell you the cleaned tails in a vacuumed
packed packages). Also, heaven forbid, you could use a canned chicken
broth if you don't want to make a stock.
To make the dressing you will need cornbread. So bake it or buy it. I
can't really tell you how much exactly. I use as much as it takes to
absorb the liquids. I make a 9 inch cast-iron skillet's worth. I also
use white cornbread but it doesn't really matter that much.
Now that you have your stock and cornbread here is how you make it.
Chop the following: onion bell pepper (I use red ones) celery garlic
Make the spice mixture. Melt a stick of butter in a large skillet.
saute veggies in butter until tender. add spice mixture to veggies
add the three cups of stock and simmer a few minutes longer.
with a slotted spoon, remove all veggies and crawfish and place into
a food processor or blender. lightly process (I usually don't over
do it here. I like to have small bits of crawfish in the dressing).
Stuff the quail with the dressing and baste with butter. Roast birds
at 325 degrees, basting as often as needed. Roast time is dependent
upon number of birds. Once the skin turns a light golden brown, check
by trying to seperate one of the tiny little legs from the quail. If
it pulls from the side easily it's done. Explaining when a roasted
bird is done is hard for me to do. It's just something you gotta know.
Serve this with the remainder of the crawfish stuffing and a what ever
veggies you desire.
One other note of importance: Crawfish are not in season during the
start of quail season so use this recipie later in the season. It's
a cold weather dish anyhow. One other thing, do *not* substitute
shrimp for crawfish; they're completely different tasting crustaceans.

1. The night before cooking, rinse and dry the rabbit pieces. Use a
mortar and pestle or a knife on a cutting board to make a paste of 2
garlic cloves, the rosemary, salt and pepper. Rub the paste over the
rabbit pieces. Put them on a plate, cover lightly with plastic wrap
and refrigerate. 2. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Have ready a
shallow roasting pan large enough to hold the rabbit in a single
layer, with space for the vegetables. Arrange the rabbit pieces in
the pan. Dab the rabbit pieces with any seasoning rub that may have
been left on the plate. Scatter the fennel, onion, pancetta,
remaining 2 cloves garlic, fennel seed and half the fennel tops over
the rabbit. Sprinkle with the olive oil and a bit of salt and pepper.
Roast 30 minutes, basting often with the pan juices. Pour in 1/2 the
broth and roast another 1 hour. Baste often, turning the pieces
occasionally. Add a little water to the pan if the pan is dry. 3.
Increase the heat to 450 degrees, cook until the rabbit is golden
brown, about 10 minutes. Turn the rabbit and vegetable pieces and
roast until golden on the other side, basting once with the pan
juices, about 10 minutes. 4. Transfer the rabbit and vegetables to a
heated platter and keep them warm in the turned off oven with the
door open. Quickly make a pan sauce by setting the roasting pan over
two stove burners turned to high. Add remaining 1/4 cup broth and the
stock. Scrape up the brown glaze from the bottom of the roasting pan
as the liquids boil down by about half, 3 to 5 minutes. Scatter the
remaining fennel leaves over the rabbit. Pass the sauce with the
rabbit at the table.

NOTES : Surprisingly, Time Life did not provide an oven setting for
this recipe. I would imagine that the usual 350 F. would be fine.
This recipe is traditionally accompanied by Forcemeat Balls.
Combine the wine, olive oil, sliced onion, juniper berries, bay leaf,
rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and a few gringings of black
pepper in a large bowl. Wash the rabbit under cold running water, pat
it thoroughly dry with paper towels and place it in the bowl. turn
the pieces about with a spoon until thoroughly coated with the
marinade, cover the bowl and marinate the rabbit for at least 6 hours
at room temperature or 12 hours in the refridgerator. In either case,
turn the peices about in the marinade occasionally to keep them well
moistened.
Drain the rabbit in a colander set over a bowl. Reserve the liquid,
but discard the onion and the herbs. pat the pieces of rabbit
completely dry with paper towels, then coat them with the flour,
shaking each piece vigorously to remove the excess.
Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of fat from casserole, add the
shallots, celery and carrots, and cook for 5 minutes, or until the
Page 1074
vegetables are soft but not brown. Pour in the reserved marinade and
the chicken stock and bring to a boil over high heat, meanwhile
scraping in any brown particles clinging to the bottom and sides of
the casserole. Add the thyme, parsley, bay leaves, teaspoon of salt
and a few grindings of pepper, and return the rabbit and bacon to the
casserole.
Cover tightly and bake in the middle of the oven for 1 hour. Stir in
the port and the currant jelly, cover again, and bake for 30 minutes
longer or until the rabbit is tender but not falling apart. (If you
are substituting small rabbits they may cook much faster. Watch
carefully that they do not overcook.) Taste and correct seasoning.

The Indians would dig a trench in the bank of the stream and built a
fire in it. The ditch was a foot deep and they laid out the fire along
the 3 foot length. The length of it depends of how many rabbits or
pheasants one has to cook. The more game the longer the trench.
They burned the scrub growth & downed the dead brush along the banks
of the stream, concentrating on drift woods that had caught on small
trees.
When there was a good bed of coals in the bottom of the ditch, they
laid in the birds and rabbits. Both had been cleaned but not picked or
skinned. They were rolled in a thick gooey mud made from the stream
bed and when all were laid on the coals, the dirt was pushed back in
until the rabbits and pheasants were entirely covered. "In an
hour that will be some of the best tasting meat you've ever eaten
said the Apache scout."
An hour later the Indians dug out the rabbits and pheasants, stripped
off feathers and skin.

RACCOON:
Buck met his first garbage can dweller emptying 55-gallon drums of
tourist trash in a county park in northern Michigan. It proved to be a
feast of no small proportions--it's flat out delicious when roasted.
Make sure you get those scent glands off from under the front legs
and thighs.
Roadside
Many of these animals have stink glands, usually under their
forelegs and along the small of their back. They must be removed.
Remove all fat, cleaning the carcass carefully so no glands are
ruptured on the good meat.
Home
Many gourmets would soak a carcass overnight in salt water. Young
animals won't need more than 8 hours in the tub, while old critters
could stand a 24-hour soak. Some would add a cup of vinegar and a
pinch of salt to each quart of water.
Beaver
This friendly vegetarian is prized by old trappers and reprobates.
Page 1095
The small yearlings are so tender when cooked properly that all
you'll need is a spoon. On Bucky Beaver, Take care to remove all the
fat and musk glands or castors just under the skin in front of the
genitals. Soak the critter overnight and then cook it is as you would
a large bird. If, However, your furry friend had its castors and
cajones unproperly stirred by a Toyota 4X4, you have just one good
option left:
BEAVER TAIL:
Skin the tail and wash it well. Cover in a pot with water and a
couple tablespoons of vinegar. Cook until tender. Drain and cut into
slices like a London Broil. Dip slices in beaten egg and roll in
bread crumbs. Fry until golden brown.

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat until hot. Season the
venison with salt and pepper and sear for 2 to 3 minutes on all
sides. Remove the venison from the skillet and place in a roasting
pan. Pour off and discard the oil from the skillet.
Over medium high heat, add 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet. When
the foaming of the butter subsides, add the apples and saute until
they begin to caramelize, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the sugar and the
vinegar and cook another 1 to 2 minutes to reduce the vinegar by
half. Add the wine and Szechuan peppercorns, cook for 2 minutes
before adding the stock. Return to a boil, and reduce the stock for
another minute. Keep the sauce warm while the venison finishes
cooking. When ready to serve swirl the butter into the sauce.

RATTLESNAKE CHILE
NOTE: Huntin' your own rattler is not recommended! Check with your
local butcher or specialty food store.
DIRECTIONS:
If you're using fresh chiles, roast, cool, peel, seed and chop to
yield about 1 1/2 cups. Test for spiciness: some chiles are hotter
than others, and you may not need to add this much. Set aside.
Fry the bacon until crisp, and set aside to cool. In a large soup pot,
saute the onions and garlic in about 2 Tbsp of the bacon drippings
until transparent. Add the cornmeal and chopped tomatoes with their
juice, the chopped green chiles, cumin, chili powder, oregano and 1
cup of water. Simmer for half an hour.
Meanwhile, seed and chop the jalapeno peppers, (avoid touching the
seeds and take care not to rub your eyes). Add the chopped pepper and
1/2 cup of water to a blender and puree. Add about half the
water/pepper mix to the pot, saving the rest to be added to taste
later. Continue to simmer the chile base for another 15 minuttes.
Drain the beans and stir them into the pot. Remove about 1 1/2 cups
of the chile and puree in a blender with the peanut butter and
chocolate (these ingredients mellow the acidity of the chiles and
allow the flavors to come through, without imparting any of their own
flavor). Return to the pot.

Put the red wine in a pan and boil to reduce by one-third. Allow to
cool down to room temperature. Place the venison in a large container
and cover with the reduced wine and all the remaining marinade
ingredients. Refrigerate and allow to marinate for 24 hours. Preheat
the oven to 110C/225F/Gas1/2. Drain the venison and the vegetables
and pat them dry. Reserve the wine. In a non-stick pan, heat the
sunflower oil until smoking and sear and colour both pieces of
venison on all sides to a good deep brown. This operation will take
about 10 minutes. Transfer the venison pieces to a cast-iron
casserole.
In the oil remaining in the non-stick pan, colour the vegetables and
seasonings lightly, about 5 minutes, then transfer them to the
casserole with the venison. Add the tomatopuree to the non-stick pan
and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the reserved red wine from the
marinade, and bring to the boil. Pour over the venison, vegetables
and seasonings in the casserole, and barely cover with the water.
Season lightly with salt. Bring to the boil for 1 minute, skim, then
cover with a tight lid. Braise in the preheated oven for 3BD hours.
Strain the juices into a large saucepan and reduce on full heat to
about 300ml/10fl oz. Reduce the heat until the sauce barely simmers,
then add the redcurrant jelly. Correct the seasoning and finally,
whisk in the grated chocolate. Mix the venison and vegetables back

this collection.
Heat a Dutch oven or heavy kettle and add the oil or shortening.
Brown the meat well. Stir in the flour, being careful to coat the
meat well. Add 1 1/2 cups water, stirring carefully until the mixture
thickens. Add the doubled Blended Red Chile Pod recipe and the
optional tomato sauce. Cover and simmer for 1 hour or until the meat
is very tender. That is the basic dish. It can be served with beans
or just as it is. You might try serving this over cornbread for a
very delicious meal.
Comments: This recipe comes from the Southwest Indians around Santa
Fe, where this kind of chili has been popular for many generations.
The title of the dish simply refers to chili cooked with meat.

REHBRATEN
Trim all cartilage from steaks (shoulder, round or rump roasts may be
used); cut steaks into "teriyaki" strips.
After 3 or 4 days, take the meat out of the marinade, drain well, and
wipe with paper towel. Sprinkle both sides with a meat tenderizer.
Flour the meat on both sides and brown in margarine in an iron
skillet or Dutch oven.
Strain the marinade into a shallow baking dish. Add to meat and,
when it is simmering briskly, cover and continue cooking until meat
is tender, about 3 hours. Peek at it occasionally and if the gravy
cooks down, add more wine so that the meat is completely covered at
all times.

Cut the venison into large chunks and marinate for about 24 hours in
the water and vinegar with 2 bay leaves and plenty of pepper.
Make the forcemeat mixture, seasoning it well and binding it with the
lightly beaten egg. Shape into 24 small balls, fry briskly until
golden- brown and crisp and reserve. Then fry the mushrooms hard in
a very little hot fat. Remove and reserve separately.
Drain and dry the meat well, reserving the marinade. Dust the
venison with well-seasoned flour and brown and seal in batches.
Transfer it to a 4 pint flameproof casserole; ideally this should be
no more than 8 inches in diameter across the top. Chop the onion
finely and fry gently. Sprinkle on 2 tablespoons flour, pour on the
marinade liquid and the stock over the meat and season with salt,
pepper, 1/2 teaspoon sugar and 2 bay leaves.
Bring to a bare simmer, cover tightly and cook over the lowest
possible flame (or in a low oven if you prefer) until the meat is
deliciously tender and the gravy is dark and rich. Shoulder meat may
need as little as 1 1/2 hours, lesser cuts of meat will need
considerably more. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. When
ready, remove the bay and check seasoning. Cool and refrigerate
overnight if not to be served on the same day.

Using low heat, take corn and roast on top of range (using griddle
if your stove is equipped with one) and keep rotating corn until ears
are a golden brown. After the corn is roasted, take ears and put on foil
covered cookie sheet until cool enough to handle. Scrape each ear once
or twice with a sharp knife. Corn is ready for making soup. While corn
is being roasted, fill kettle (5 qt. capacity) approximately 3/4 full
with hot water and put on to boil along with salt pork which has been
diced in small pieces for more thorough cooking. Beans should be sorted
for culls, washed twice and parboiled for approximately 35-45 minutes.
After parboiling beans, rinse well in tepid water 2 or 3 times. Corn and
beans should then be put in kettle with pork and cooked for about 1
hour. (Note: Beans can also be soaked overnight to cut cooking time when
preparing soup).
ROAST DUCK #2
Rub duck skin with garlic and sprinkle the birds inside and out with
salt and pepper. Fill cavities with the apples, onions and celery
tops. Cover breasts with bacon slices. Place birds, beast sides up,
in roasting pan and roast at 400 degrees until done. This varies
from as short as 20 minutes for rare up to an hour . Baste every 15
minutes with the butter. Remove cavity contents and serve with sauce
as desired, but do not prepare sauce from pan drippings.
Supposedly, the cavity filling absorbs the "wild" taste and most
folks don't like that.

vegetables, juniper berries and a good grinding of black pepper and
cook all together for 7 to 10 minutes. Pour half the vegetable
mixture into the bottom of a roasting tin, put the haunch of deer on
top, and pour the remaining vegetables and dripping over the meat.
Roast in a preheated hot oven (425øF/ 220øC / gas 7) for 30 minutes,
then cover the meat and roasting tin tightly with foil and roast for
a further 12 hours.
When the cooking time is up, take the meat out of the tin and put
it on a warmed serving plate in a low oven. Stir the port, water and
redcurrant jelly into the vegetables and meat juices in the roasting

Yes, this recipe uses both sherry and red wine together. If using
allspice, you can also add a pinch of cloves and substitute apple
cider for the wines. If using garlic and herbs, chianti is good.
Defrost the roast. Pre-heat oven to 450 F. The fat pork should be cut
into strips about 1/3" wide and 2" long. Then roll the pork strips in
seasonings and insert them in a larding needle. Pull the strips
through the meat at regular intervals, allowing the fat to show
outside the meat at both ends.
Now rub the roast with oil and place it in a roasting pan. Pour the
melted butter over it. Put in oven and turn down heat to 300 F. Or,
more trouble but better, brown the meat on all sides in hot oil in a
skillet and then transfer the meat to the roasting pan and roast at
300.
Make a smooth paste of flour, butter and stock; add wine and orange
rind and stir in the gravy in the pan. Bring to a boil, stirring as
the gravy thickens. Add the rest of the sherry and the jelly. Now
finish the roast in a slow oven [250], basting frequently with the
completed gravy, for about 30 minutes to an hour.
Serve remaining gravy and more fruit jelly with the roast.

2 passenger pigeons
1/4 lb country ham, diced fine
3/4 cup parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon sweet herbs
1 1/2 teaspoon mace
1 stick butter, softened
1 cup chestnuts
2 chicken livers plus those from pige; ons, cooked and chopped
2 teaspoon cinnamon
Roast and chop the chestnuts. Mix with ham, livers, parsley, one
teaspoon nutmeg, one teaspoon mace, and the sweet herbs. Stuff
pigeons with the mixture, packing tightly.
Truss birds with cotton cord. Coat hens with a mixture of butter and
remaining spices.
NOTE: This is an 18th Century recipe that may use squab or gamehen
for Passenger Pigeon, since the last Passenger Pigeon died in the
Cincinnati Zoo at the age of 20, in 1912. It was once the most
common bird in North America. Changes in the environment such as
removal of the forests and incessant hunting reduced the population
of these large doves, by the last quarter of the 19th Century to
small flocks that were no longer able to maintain their populations
due to pressure from man. The flocks at one time would literally
blacken the skies for hours as the pigeons passed above. The flocks
each contained many millions, perhaps billions, of birds. The
Passenger Pigeon (Ectopistes migratorius) is tragically, extinct.

Prepare and cook the wild rice and set aside in a bowl.
Saute the mushrooms in the butter until most of the juices have
been removed; add 3 of the chopped shallots and saute a minute or so
longer.
Mix the cooked wild rice, the mushrooms, and the 3 shallots and
stuff the birds with it. Then truss the pheasants and skewer the
vents (or sew).
With toothpicks pin a strip of bacon along each side of the breast
of each stuffed, trussed bird or insert it under the breast skin.
Remove the foil tent and continue roasting for 30 minutes, basting
4 or 5 times with the pan juices.

Pigeons lose their flavor by being kept more than a day after they are
killed. They may be prepared and roasted or broiled the same as
chickens; they will require from twenty to thirty minutes' cooking.
Make a gravy of the biglets or not, season it with pepper and salt,
and add a little flour and butter.

Stud the saddle of venison with juniper berries and peppercorns. Lay
the bacon strips over and secure with toothpicks. Stand the saddle on
a rack in a large Dutch oven or place on the grill with indirect
heat. Prepare the basting marinade by simmering the honey or maple
syrup in the cider in a small pan until it is well dissolved and
steaming. Roast, basting often, for 1 1/2 hours in a preheated medium
hot Dutch oven or on your grill with indirect heat. Cool the roast
for 20 minutes. Carve, serving one rib per portion. Serve on a bed of
wild rice, together with the pan drippings.
Can be cooked on a spit instead.. over a very slow open fire. I have
put my Dutch oven straight on the grill for this one also. P.S. This
is a Cree Indian recipe.... I have used gin when I could not find
juniper berries, gives the same flavor when mixed in the basting mix.

Soak ducks for 2 hours in pan of water to which 2 Tbsp of soda has
been added. Preheat oven to 500 deg. Stuff cavities of ducks with
cut-up apples and onions (one apple and one onion per duck). Apples
and onions are not to be eaten; they are to absorb wild game taste.
Place 3 strips of bacon over the breast of each duck. Roast for 30
minutes in 500 deg. oven with little or no water. Cut heat back to
250 deg. and continue to cook for 30 minutes. Baste with sherry and

2 sprigs of tarragon
3 to 4 sprigs of thyme
1 teaspoon milled black pepper
1 mallard
200 ml (7fl oz) white wine vinegar
100 gm (4oz) unsalted butter
100 gm (4oz) pancetta or streaky bacon, t; hinly sliced
1 onion
4 small salted anchovy fillets
1 pinch sugar
1 glass white wine
200 ml (7fl oz) chicken stock
1 teaspoon capers
(serves two)
The day before, or at least eight hours before cooking, place the
tarragon, thyme and pepper inside the cavity of the duck and pour in
half the vinegar. Pour the other half of the vinegar over the skin of
the duck, cover with film or foil and leave to marinate in the
fridge. If possible, turn the duck a couple of times during this
period.
Pour away the vinegar and smear the breasts of the duck with half the
butter before covering them with the strips of bacon. Do not truss
the duck as this will prevent the thighs from cooking sufficiently
before the breasts are overdone. Place the duck on its back on a
roasting tray and put it in a hot oven (230°C/450°F/Gas Mark
8). Roast for 15 minutes.
Chop the onion and the anchovy fillets and stew these gently in the
remaining butter in a small saucepan. When the duck is cooked,
transfer it to a plate and add a pinch of sugar to the roasting dish.
Warm this over the heat before pouring in the white wine. Allow to
bubble up while you scrape up all the caramelised residue from the
pan and then add the chicken stock. Boil and reduce by half. Then add
the onion and anchovy mix.
Separate the legs and breasts of the duck from the carcass and cut the
breasts in half. Pour the duck juices into the sauce and then gently
warm the duck pieces in the sauce. Sprinkle with capers and serve
immediately, with the polenta.

1 cat
Take the cat, cut the tail off, skin and gut as for rabbit. Can be
substituted in any rabbit recipe.
Trevor suggests placing a few onions in the gut cavity and then
trussing with some fencing wire [not rusty] and roasting on a spit
over a wood fire.
If the cat is old, only use the rump section and make a stew with
onions and whatever root vegetables are available.
Trevor say he has had this on several occasions and it tastes very
similar to roasted/stewed rabbit.

tenderloin, leaving about 1/2 in. around the edges. Gently roll the
tenderloin up, like a jelly roll. Using butchers twine, make several
knots, about 2 in apart. This will secure the stuffing and aid in
overall cooking. In a large saute pan, heat the olive oil. Sear the

If you just killed a reindeer. Moose or similar, you can make this.
Turn the "long things in the stomach" (forgot English word) and clean
them in snow or water. Fill them with blood. Tie them together and
boil them. If you mix snow with the blood, there will be no lumps.
You can also sift the blood thourgh a colander to avoid lumps. You
can even mix the blood with oat flakes. Reindeer blood can freeze
without loosing taste.

SAVOURY RABBIT
1 text file
Just a few rabbits were introduced many years ago by a notorious (for
this reason) English gentleman, and inevitably, eventually, Australia
was covered with them. During depression days rabbits were the food
of the desperate (and referred to as, "underground mutton"), and
gained an undeserved reputation as a low quality meat. Not
surprisingly, my old cookbooks have many recipes for rabbit, as pie,
curried, stewed, stuffed baked, boiled. To anticipate your request,
one of the most interesting is the Savoury Rabbit given below, copied
from The Kookaburra Cookery Book.
Joint 2 rabbits and lay them till white in salt and water. Line the
bottom of a pie dish with a seasoning of sage, onion, breadcrumbs,
pepper, salt, and nutmeg. Lay in this some of the rabbit, then a
rasher of bacon and sliced hard boiled eggs, and so continue till the
dish is full, letting some seasoning make the last layer. Fill up
with some good broth or milk. Cover with a plate, and bake 2 hours in
a moderate oven. - Miss D. Gurner.

Season venison to taste with salt and pepper. Lightly dust with
flour.
If using thicker steaks, cook on both side until medium rare. Juices
should still be slightly pink.
Transfer venison to a platter and keep warm. Pour grease from pan.
Add shallots, then vinegar, scraping up any brown bits that may be
stuck to the bottom. Cook over medium heat until vinegar is reduced
by half.
Add heavy cream and cook to thicken slightly. Remove form heat and
stir in mustard. Whisk in butter, 1 piece at a time. Spoon sauce
over venison.

1 british measurements
2 oz butter
1 tablespoon honey
4 pigeons; oven-ready
5 tablespoon single malt scotch whiskey
2 large nectarines; peeled & sliced
4 tablespoon mango juice
4 large squares of kitchen foil
Like pheasant, pigeon is best when kept moist during cooking. In this
recipe, the birds are baked in their own individual "parcels" ,
sealing in all the whiskey and honey flavors.
Heat the butter, honey and a Tbsp of whiskey in a frying pan. Add the
pigeons and fry them gently for approximately 5 minutes, sealing them
in a caramelized glaze. Remove them from the pan, and wrap each
pigeon in an individual foil parcel with nectarine slices, a Tbsp of
mango juice and one Tbsp whiskey in each.
Bake at 3250F / 1600C / gas 3 for about 1 hour, or until the birds
are tender. Serve the foil parcels at the table - guests will enjoy
opening the fragrant packages for themselves.

Hill deer, like hill sheep, are reputed to have much better-tasting
meat than their lowland cousins and in Scotland the quality of the
hill venison is famous. Large joints may have to be marinated before
cooking, but it isn't necessary if the animal is younger.
Slice and peel onion and carrots. Cook gently in olive oil, but do not
let brown. Put into glass or earthenware dish. Add wine and other
ingredients to create a marinade. Soak the venison in marinade for
about 2 days. Turn several times a day so all surfaces are coated with
marinade. When ready, take out venison and dry with a clean cloth.
Combine butter and oil in heavy pan with tight lid. Place over medium
heat. When hot add diced pork or bacon. Fry until cubes are crisp, add
joint, brown on all sides. Reduce marinade to half by boiling rapidly
on stove top. Strain marinade over venison, season to taste. Cook at
325F/165C in oven for 30 min per lb.
Sauce
Strain off pan juices. Boil rapidly on stove top to reduce by half.
Rub flour into butter, add to thicken, stir well. Add port and jelly;
mix very well. Serve over venison or separately as desired.

your stove is equipped with one) and keep rotating corn until ears
are a golden brown. After the corn is roasted, take ears and put on
foil covered cookie sheet until cool enough to handle. Scrape each
ear once or twice With a sharp knife. Corn is ready for making soup.
While corn is being roasted, fill kettle (5 qt. capacity)
approximately 3/4 full with hot water and put on to boil along with
salt pork which has been diced in small pieces for more thorough
cooking. Beans should be sorted for culls, washed twice and parboiled
for approximately 35-45 minutes. After parboiling beans, rinse well
in tepid water 2 or 3 times. Corn and beans should then be put in
kettle with pork and cooked for about 1 hour. (Note: Beans can also

When I was in AZ, the little Dine'h girls thought they would gross me out
by
offering me 'weird' sheep parts to eat. I was never sure that what they
were
giving me was what they said or if they were pulling my leg, but I just ate
the meat anyway, and actually it was quite tasty. I've always had a taste
for mutton, and perhaps not knowing for sure was a good thing. Anyway, I
did
not find out how they prepared the meat exactly so I don't know if this is
how the Navajo do it or not, but this is the only recipe I've run across so
here it is. Min
Split the skull lengthwise and remove the brains carefully; place them in
cold salted water. Chop off the nose and clean the head well with salt.
Remove the tongue; set aside. Tie the head back together and place in a
saucepan with the tongue. Cover with hot water; adding 2 teaspoons of salt.
Skim the water as it boils; cooking for 1 hour.
Wash the brains, then tie in muslin and cook in the broth for 20 minutes.
Cut the vegetables in small pieces. Add to the broth. Simmer for 2 hours.
Season with more salt and pepper to taste; add the parsley and the meat
from
the head after it has been cut into small pieces.
Notes: The head can be served separately with brain sauce. The sheep's
trotters can be added to the above recipe if desired. They should be well
washed and cooked with the head. The head and trotters can be served
separately coated with white sauce and garnished with pieces of carrot and
turnip.

mushrooms and nuts, continue to cook for a couple of minutes, then
add the ale and water with the bay leaves.
Bring to the boil, cover and simmer very gently for 2 - 2 1/2 hours--
the birds should be falling off the bone. Remove the birds from the
juices, cool juices completely and remove any excess fat. The birds
can be served whole on or off the bone. If the latter, carve them
while they are cold then return to the skimmed juices and reheat
gently. Adjust the seasoning to taste and serve either the whole
birds of the slices on the pieces of bread, with plenty of the juices
and "bits". A good green salad to follow is the best accompaniment.

In a large bowl mix all of the wet and dry ingredients. Place Buffalo
in bowl and cover. Place in the refrigerator and marinate for 72
hours. Remove Buffalo from fridge and pat dry with paper towels prior
to placing on the grill, leave on counter at room temperature while
fire is being prepared.
Place charcoal in a pyramid shape and light with either lighter fluid,
electric starter or chimney starter. When the coals turn gray place
them to one side of the grill. Add an additional 12-15 briquettes to
the hot coals. The Buffalo will be cooked using the indirect method.
Place an aluminum pan filled with hot water next to the coals. Spray
the grid with a non-stick spray
and let grid heat over the hot coals. Place the meat above the water
pan on the heated grid. At this time add one of the wood chunks.
Cover the grill, place bottom vents 3/4 open and top cover vent 1/2
open. You will need to add
lit charcoal to the hot coals, approximately 8-12 briquettes every
hour, so using a chimney starter would work best for this. At that
time you can also add another chunk of wood. Use wood in moderation,
a nice even smoky flavor will enhance the meat and not over power it!
Cook for approximately 2 1/4 hours or 45 minutes per pound. The
cooking temperature should be about 275 degrees.
Remove the Buffalo and let sit for 20 minutes prior to slicing. Ask
Chauncey
how good this was.
NOTES : I suggest using hardwood lump charcoal to fuel the fire and a
wood with character to flavor it such as Pecan, Alder or Maple. Rare
is the choicest way to serve this beast, if it is well done you might
as well toss it
in the garbage and start over.

The curranty flavors of the sauce are the perfect counterpoint to the
smoked boar. If boar cannot be found, a saddle of pork or venison can
be used. Chestnut Puree (see recipe) and braised leeks are ideal
accompaniments.
Remove boar from grill and let rest a few minutes. Carve boar and
serve with sauce.
Recommended wine: The intense, curranty flavors in the sauce make the
dish an ideal match for a well-balanced, rich Cabernet Sauvignon.

SNAKEROOT
1 snakeroot
Name given various plants that were supposed to cure snake bites;
black snakeroot or cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa), Seneca snakeroot
(Polygala senega), and Virginia snakeroot or birthwort (Aristolochia
serpentaria) are common in the U.S.; Canada snakeroot (Asarum
canadense) is the wild ginger.
SNIPPETS OF VENISON
Cut the meat into strips about the size of your thumb - if possible.
Some of the trimmings may, of course, be slightly ragged, triangular
or cubed but this is the size and shape to aim for. Dust with
coarsely ground black pepper and 3 to 4 crushed juniper berries,
moisten with the cider, cover and leave to marinate for 24 hours.
Crush a garlic clove, mix it with the soured cream or yoghurt and
leave it to infuse in a cool place for 24 hours.
Carefully drain and dry the venison, reserving the marinade. Slice
the mushrooms thickly and saute them in a little very hot butter.
Remove and keep hot. Then saute the venison briefly, searing it
nicely but keeping it succulent and pink within - 2 minutes is
plenty. Then let the venison rest in a low oven where it will go on
cooking a little without toughening. Start making the sauce straight
away or wait for several minutes if you want the meat to lose its
pinkness.
To make the sauce, let the marinade liquid and the stock bubble away
in the frying pan until reduced to just 2 or 3 spoonfuls. Blend in
any juices that the venison has exuded and bubble again briefly. Then
beat in the garlic-flavoured soured cream, away from the heat. Return
the pan to a low flame to warm the sauce. Season well, scatter with
chopped chives and serve on very hot plates.

Brown the venison chops in the oil on the stove. This is just to
give them color, not to cook them so don't cook too long. Put the
venison in a casserole along with the onion slices. Pour the white
wine on top. It should just barely cover the meat, so add more if you
need. Bake for one hour at 175C (350F). After one hour, mix in the
can of cream of mushroom soup. Do not add any water. The soup will
probably not mix well, don't worry about it as it will "melt" while
cooking. Bake another hour at 175C (350F). Very good with wild rice.

First get your bear. Preferably just before hibernation as they will
be fat then. Trim off all fat it is not like beef it is easy not
marbled. Marinating the meat makes it taste better and makes it
tender and juicy.
In a large bowl mix the onions, Indian vinegar, water, maple syrup
spice bush powder and salt. Let stand a few hours, then put in the
bear steaks. Put in a cool place for 24 hours. turning the steaks
every once in a while.
Remove the steaks from the marinade, let them drain and pat dry. Heat
a frying pan , rub pan with the rendered bear fat. Place the steaks
in the pan and sear on both sides. Lower the heat and finish
cooking, adding more fat to prevent sticking. Remove steaks from the
frying pan, add a little flour and water to thicken the gravy, Pour
gravy over the steaks. Serve with potatoes, and of course Fry Bread.
Note: Indian Vinegar is made from the sap of the sugar maple or birch
tree. the buds and twigs and sap were allowed to ferment in the sun,
then strained through a cloth. (I used Apple Cider Vinegar at the
time but if you want to be creative you can try to make this.)
Bush spice grows along stream banks and in damp woods. The bush
grows as tall as 10 feet and the leaves turn a bright gold color in
the fall. The flowers are yellow and the leaves and twigs smell good.
The bright red berries are dried in the sun and then pounded to a
powder and used instead of what we know as allspice. The bush is
also known as the Benjamin bush, wild allspice bush and the fever
bush. Unless you are really good on wild plants I would just use
conventional allspice. That is what I used.

Chef Gary Jones pulled off a coup for Western Australia in 1994 when
his Perth Restaurant, San Lorenzo was voted Australia's Best
Restaurant in the prestigious Remy Gourmet Awards. Though he uses
kangaroo fillets for this dish, you could substitute fillet steak.
Simmer onion, carrot and garlic in olive oil. After 3 minutes add
spices and cook for further two minutes. Add lentils and chicken
stock and simmer for 1 hour or until mixture has reduced to a
thickish consistency. Stir in herbs.
10 minutes before serving, brush fillets with olive oil and sear in
very hot pan for two to three minutes keeping the meat rare to medium
rare. Remove fillets and allow to stand in warm place for a few
minutes to allow meat to Œrest'. Serve fillet with the spicy lentil
sauce. From: Karen Stephens <kas@eisa.Net.Au>date: Tue, 15 Jun 1999

This preparation will work with older animals very nicely; younger
and more tender animals may be better on the grill, or dredged in
flour and fried or baked.
Skin and clean two large squirrels. Wash the carcasses free of
blood, and pat dry. Disjoint into four leg sections, one saddle
(just above the pelvis) and one rack (the ribcage). Using large
kitchen shears, snip off the lower part of the ribcage and any parts
of the saddle that are not directly attached to meat, such as the
pelvis. Reserve the rack; you can prepare it as you would a Frenched
rack of lamb if you wish by scraping the ends of the bones clean, and
cutting down the center of the backbone lengthwise to create two sets
of "squirrel chops".
In a small saucepan, simmer down the bones and the edible internal
organs (heart, liver minus the green gallbladder, kidneys, lungs,
diaphragm) with some carrots, onions and bay leaves to create a small
amount of fragrant demiglace. Reserve.
Rub the joints all over with a good quality salt and some herbs to
taste; I like to use the "Herbs du Provence" blend with some thyme,
lavender, basil and oregano. Leave them in the refrigerator
overnight. The next day, rinse them briefly and dry thoroughly on
paper towels.
Prepare enough clean rendered fat (duck or goose fat is ideal, but
clean pork or bear lard will do; beef tallow is undesireable) to
completely cover all of the squirrel parts to be preserved. Gently
boil the squirrel parts in the fat on a low simmer for an hour to an
hour and a half, checking and stirring frequently to avoid parts
sticking to the bottom of the pan. When the meat is tender and
falling off the bone, remove and drain all the fat if serving
immediately.
If you wish to preserve the squirrel meat, debone the cooled, cooked
meat and put it in a clean glass jar. Strain the fat, and pour it
over the meat. Make sure there is at least 1/2" of melted fat above
the level of the meat, and store it in a cool, dark place, ideally
the refrigerator.

with a crisp salad of spring greens, garlic mashed potatoes and
freshly baked bread. From: Tanith@tyrr

Get a large stock pot. Clean the squirrels and rub them down with a
seasoning mix of salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper, thyme, and a
dash of cumin. Put them inside the pot. Cut up a couple of carrots
and thow them in. Quarter an onion and slice a full bulb of garlic
(7 or 8 cloves) in half, germ and all, and put them in the pot. Now
pour enough bock beer into the pot to go about half way up the sides
of the squirrels. Bring to a boil and reduce to a slow simmer. Cover
pot and cook, turning the squirrels and refilling the beer about
every 20 minutes. You will know the squirrels are done when the meat
comes off the bones without too much effort.
Take the squirrels out and pick the meat from the bones. Return the
*bones* to the pot and cover with water. Simmer for 2 hours, then
remove and strain the liquid into a container. Finely chop a small
onion, a stalk of celery and a bell pepper. Now take a large cast
iron skillet and heat a cup of peanut oil to medium high heat. With a
wire wisk, slowly wisk in 1 cup of flour. Continue wisking, without
stopping, until the roux turns a dark reddish brown color (if you
burn it, start over). Add the chopped veggies and mix in until soft.
Add the squirrel stock (about a cup per person) and stir well until
somewhat thick (like a glaze). Chop up the squirrel meat and add it
to the skillet. Cook for a few minues longer and serve on top of
Louisiana ice cream (that's rice for those of you who don't know).
Garnish with Louisiana Hot Sauce.

To bone a squirrel (or any small animal), use a small, sharp knife to
cut all the way around the end of the bone below the "knob", severing
tendons and muscle attachments. Scrape downwards with the blade to
push the flesh down on the bone.
Stuff the pockets created in the legs with lightly sauteed wild
mushrooms and spring garlic or onion greens. Dredge the stuffed legs
lightly in seasoned flour and brown in a small amount of hot butter
in a covered skillet. Add enough wine and well-reduced stock to keep
the liquid about 1/4" deep around the stuffed legs, and braise until
the meat is completely done and runs clear when pierced.
Roast the rib chop and saddle sections, deglaze the pan juices with
wine and stock, and serve as a garnish to the stuffed legs. This
makes a very attractive presentation. From: Tanith@tyrr

Clean all loose fat from inside bird. Cut off wing tips at elbow,
cut off neck close to body, cut off tail (the bird's, not yours).
With fork or sharp knife, prick skinn at the base of each wing, the
back of the legs and where thigh meets back. This will prevent
accumulation of melted fat. Rub bird inside and out with lemon juice
and lightly salt the cavity. Place the bird on rack in roaster pan,
breast side up. Add 1 inch of water to the pan, place on top of
stove, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and steam for 1 hour. Add
more water if necessary. Do not burn dry.

1 leg venison
6 oz fat-larding pork
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 tablespoon ground ginger
1 oregano leaves/powder-opt'l. or-
1 marjoram leaves/powder -opt'l.
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup butter or fat, melted
2 cup meat stock, more if you want
1 cup dry sherry
1/3 cup flour
2 tablespoon butter
5 teaspoon cider vinegar or chianti
1/4 tablespoon grated orange rind
2 tablespoon currant jelly
Before being cooked, venison should hang in a cool place for three or
four days after the kill. Wipe it and dry well. Remove all skin,
membrane and sinews. The fat pork should be cut into strips about
1/3" wide and 2" long.
Now rub the roast with oil and place it in a roasting pan, preferably
one with a basting depression. Pour melted butter or fat over the
roast; bake at 325 F. for 4 to 5 hours, or until meat is brown and
very tender. It should be basted every 10 to 15 minutes with meat
stock and half of sherry. At the end of the cooking time, remove the
meat from pan; skim off fat from the natural gravy.
Make a smooth paste of flour, butter and stock; add vinegar or wine
and orange rind and stir in the natural gravy in the pan. Then cook
this for about 10 minutes on low heat and add the rest of the sherry
and currant jelly. Now baste roast in slow heat, with the completed
gravy, for about 15 minutes to an hour.
Serve gravy in gravy boat and garnish the venison with currant jelly
or serve currant jelly with it.

Prepare meat by cutting into strips 3/4" X 1/2" and as long as you
prefer. Cut across grain for tender and lengthwise for chewy. The
more consistent you are when cutting the strips the better your jerky
will dry evenly. Mix all ingredients in blender except meat and
Cayenne. Soak strips of meat in the above mixture and refrigerate for
24-48 hours in a close container (I use a Tuppleware¨ bread box).
Shake several times to mix well. Pat dry. Place directly on oven
racks that have been covered with tin foil and sprayed with Pam. Cook
in pre heated oven @ 160F for 2-3 hours (with door closed). This
kills bacteria, removes a lot of the excess moisture and melts any
excess fat. Return hot strips to mixture and refrigerate for another
6-12 hours (remember to shake several times). Pat dry and sprinkle
with Cayenne powder. Spread in dehydrator. Set dehydrator at 145F.
The final drying usually takes about another 6-10 hours. Do not over
dry (Check every few hours). Jerky should be tuff and leathery, not
brittle or hard. A real mouth watering HOT treat! Enjoy. If you don't
have a dehydrator return Jerky to 150F oven for 6-12 hours leaving
door open a little. An alternate for the final drying would be to use
a low heat smoker. Leave out the Liquid Smoke¨ in the Marinate. Note
~ Venison has always cooked faster for me than beef (less moisture?).
So check it more frequently. Yields about 1.75 - 2 lbs. dried jerky.

With a very sharp knife, split the tough skin-like muscle that
surrounds each testicle. Remove the skin. Set testicles into a pan
with enough salt water to cover them for one hour (this takes out
some of the blood). Drain. Transfer testicles to large pot. Add
enough water to float testicles and a generous tablespoon of vinegar.
Parboil, drain and rinse. Let cool and slice each testicle into 1/4
inch thick ovals. Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of sliced
testicle to taste.
Mix flour, cornmeal and some garlic powder to taste in a bowl. Roll
each slice into this dry mixture. Dip into milk seasoned with hot
sauce. Dip
into dry mixture. Dip into wine quickly (you may repeat the procedure
if a thicker crust is desired).
Place each testicle into hot cooking oil. Cook until golden brown or
tender, and remove with a wire mesh strainer (the longer they cook,
the tougher they get). Drain on paper towels.

Clean and stuff with onion dressing, thyme, etc. Do not sew up; take
five or more slices of salt pork, let it fry awhile in a pot so that
the fat comes out and it begins to brown a little; then lay the
pigeons all around in the fat, leaving he pork still in; add hot
water enough to partially cover them; cover tightly and boil and hour
or so until tender; then turn off some of the liquid and keep turning
them so they will brown nicely; then heat and add the liquor poured

STEWED SQUIRRELS^
2 squirrels
2 quart boiling water
1/2 lb fresh corn
1/4 lb fresh lima beans
3 or 4 tomatoes, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 or 3 potatoes, in chunks
1/2 onion, sliced
1 salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoon butter
Cut the squirrels into pieces. Put into the boiling water along with
the rest of the ingredients, except the butter. cover and simmer for
about 2 hours; add the butter and simmer another 15 minutes. Bring to
a full boil, remove from the stove and serve. By the way, grey
squirrel is even better than red squirrel and they are both better
tasting when hunted in the fall. Young squirrels may be fried. Many
of the recipes in this collection did not contain amounts or oven

Marinate thinly sliced meat in soy sauce for about 1 hour. Cut
asparagus into 3" pieces. Cut pepper in half, core, and cut into thin
strips. Cut green onion in 1/2" pieces, including the tops. Add corn
starch to cold water in jar and shake.
When oil is hot add meat and stir fry till outside is sealed. Add
asparagas and red pepper. Cook till near prefered doneness. Add
onions, stir a few seconds, add black bean sauce, add broth (use
canned not bullion) and stir till heated. Shake corn starch and add
to mix to thicken. Make sure to keep stiring as corn starch thickens.
Serve over steamed rice &/or chow mein noodles.
Every now and then I like to do something jazzy with the game meat.
One key thing (IMHO) is thin fresh small stalked asparagus that you
can get this time of year. Forget those one's with 3/4" stalks of
wood. Also, I think this dish ranks as one of the most beautiful!

Cut rabbit into serving portions, and fry in oil for about 15 minutes.
Remove rabbit from the pan and use the same oil to cook the chopped up
oinion. In the bottom of a pot (large enough to contain the rabbit),
place the cooked onion, broth, and bullions. Lay the rabbit on top,
then add peas, sauce and wine to the sides of the rabbit. Cover the
rabbit with water and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down and simmer
for at least one and a half hours or untill the rabbit is tender and
the water has been reduced. The dish is best served as
sauce/compliment to spaghetti. Make sure the spaghetti is washed
after cooking or it will gum up, lay on a platter and top with
rabbit, then cover in the sauce. This is but one variation of rabbit
stew.

Mix the salt, sugar, peppercorns, juniper berries and thyme. Evenly
spread the fillets with the mixture, place in a plastic tray and seal
well. Weigh the tray down with a similar size tray inserted as a lid
with weights, and leave in the refridgerator overnight.
Take the fillets from the tray and wipe off any excess moisture.
Brush with olive oil and bake on a very hot grill. Cooking time will
depend on the thickness of the fillets and may be as little as 4
minutes but no longer than 10 minutes. After the fillet is cooked it
is essential to rest the meat for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Avery Island and the country around it abound in game, especially wild
ducks and geese, snipe, woodcock, doves and deer. We age our venison
for at least four weeks and cook it rare. We use muscadine jelly from
Callaway Gardens for our sauce, but you can use any flavorful fruit
jelly, such as grape or guava. Season the chops with 1 teaspoon of
the Tabasco sauce and sprinkle them with salt. In a large skillet,
melt 1 tablespoon of the butter and the oil over medium-high heat. In
two batches, cook the chops for 5 minutes, turning once, and remove
to a warm platter.

Avery Island and the country around it abound in game, especially wild
ducks and geese, snipe, woodcock, doves and deer. We age our venison
for at least four weeks and cook it rare. We use muscadine jelly
from Callaway Gardens for our sauce, but you can use any flavorful
fruit jelly, such as grape or guava.
Season the chops with 1 teaspoon of the Tabasco sauce and sprinkle
them with salt. In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter
and the oil over medium-high heat. In two batches, cook the chops
for 5 minutes, turning once, and remove to a warm platter.
Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in the same skillet. Add the green
onions and cook, stirring frequently, for 3 minutes, or until tender.

TENDER JERKY
Begin preparation by deboning and removing the tendons and fat from
the meat. It is important that you remove all fat or it will go
rancid. Either grind the meat yourself or have someone grind it for
you; a coarse grind gives the best results.
Mix the spices thoroughly and then add the spices a bit at a time
while kneading the meat like dough. Put the meat in the fridge for
at least 6 hours to allow the spices to work through the meat.
At this point you prepare the meat for jerking. If you have an
electric meat slicer, make the meat into logs about 4 x 14"; place
the meat in the fridge until it is solid but not frozen, and then
slice 1/8" slices from end to end. You'll end up with a big stack of
circular patties. If you don't have a slicer, roll the meat out to a
1/8" thickness between two pieces of wax paper. Remove the top paper
and score the meat into strips and place them in the freezer for
about 45 minutes. Remove the meat and break at the score marks.
Place the jerky on wire racks and place them in a 150 F. oven,
leaving the door ajar so moisture can escape and the heat does not
build up. Turn the jerky once or twice during drying and rotate the
racks if the jerky near the elements begins to dry too fast. On

Meat may be nice slices 1/4-inch thick, or the small bits you get when
trimming out hocks, then beat flat with board
Put the meat in a large bowl with the evaporated milk and enough
water to completely cover the meat. Allow to stand for 1 hour. Take
the meat out, drain only slightly and then season to taste and roll
in the flour. Drop into hot grease (375 degrees F) and fry until
brown. Do not overcook or the meat will become dry and tough. Serve
with gravy made from flour and some of the milk left over and good

6 dried anchos
8 dried hot red chiles
3 1/2 cup boiling water
1/2 lb beef kidney suet in 1/2
1 pieces
3 lb lean boneless venison or
1 beef chuck in 1/2 cubes
3 bay leaves, crumbled (i'd
1 leave them whole)
1 tablespoon cumin seed
2 tablespoon garlic, chopped
4 teaspoon dried oregano
3 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon salt
3 tablespoon yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon cayenne, optional
1 cooked pinto beans, on the
1 side
1 cooked rice (from 3 c raw
1 rice), on the side
Prepare the chiles by stemming them, tearing them open, and brushing
the seeds out under cold running water. Remove any large ribs unless
you want a hot chili. Chop the chiles coarsely and soak them in water
for 30 min. Drain them and set them aside, reserving the soaking
water.
Render the suet in a big heavy kettle. Remove and discard (or eat) the
crunchies. Pour off all but 1/4 c of the fat. Cook the meat in this
fat until the meat changes color. Add 2 1/2 c of the soaking water and
bring this all to a boil. Add the bay leaves and reduce the heat to
low. Simmer the stew 1 hr with the lid ajar, stirring it occasionally.
Toast the cumin seeds 10 min over low heat. Blend them in a blender
until they are a fine powder. Add the soaked chiles, the rest of the
soaking water, and the garlic, oregano, paprika, sugar, and salt.
Blend this until the mess is smooth.
Stir the puree into the stew and cook it 30 more min with the lid
ajar, stirring it occasionally. Then, stirring constantly, add the
cornmeal in a thin stream and bring the chili to a boil. Cook,
stirring all the time, until it seems done. Add the cayenne if you
wish.
Serve the chili with rice and beans (ON THE SIDE!).

Sorry about the translation, it was literal, from grama.
In the old country they always washed the meat first before
cooking, I always thought it was just because it was freshly
butchered, but soaking the meat tenderizes it greatly, and adds
liquid to the stew for gravy. Beef or Veal neck or shank works great,
though venison neck works- add peeled chopped apple in last 5 min.

Put steaks (use whatever size you like) into a steep-sided bowl. Rub
on garlic salt and lemon pepper, then shake in a liberal amount of
teriyaki sauce. Pour in a small amount of beer, but just enough to
cover the meat. In a civilized environment, white wine makes and
excellent replacement of beer.
Marinate for only a short time so that you don't mask the flavor of
the meat (about 15 to 20 minutes is plenty of time). And don't go
anywhere near a frying pan! Cook the steaks on a barbecue or, better
yet, on a grill over campfire coals. Cooking time will depend on the
thickness of the cuts, but never cook past medium-rare. Because of
game meat's low fat content, this will ensure that the steaks are
tender and juicy. Serves 4.

There are several methods tht you can use to stuff and cook your meat
mix. To stuff your meat mix, you can either purchase casings from you
meat market or you can use cans to shape your sausage. If you use
commercial casings you need to make them pliable by soaking in a
solution of 1 pint warm water, 1 tablespoon vinegar, and 1 teapoon
salt for three hours. Rinse casings thoroughly before stuffing. After
Page 1406
stuffing, cook sausage with one of the methods described below. When
using cans, be sure the meat is thoroughly packed in the cans to
avoid air pockets. A no. 2 1/2 can is a convenient size. Cover the
stuffed cans with foil before cooking. Cooked sausage can be stored
safely in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 weeks, or it can be frozen.
Frozen sausage should be used within 2 to 3 months for best quality.
COOKING METHODS:
Place a large pan in the sink and fill with 3 to 4 inches of ice
water, remove sausage from cooker and place in water to cool. If
necessary add more cold water, being careful not to let water run
into the cans. When cool remove sausage from cans, and refrigerate or
wrap sausage for freezing.
Place filled cans or stuffed casing on rack in baking pan and bake at
325 F for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Cool, package, and store as directed
under pressure saucepan method.
Hang stuffed sausage casings in smoke house. Hot smoke at 160 degrees
to 180 degrees F for about 8 hours. Test for doneness by inserting a
thermometer into the center of the sausage. The internal temperature,
when done, should be at least 165 degrees F. When cool, regfrigerate
or wrap sausage as indicated for other cooking methods.

Allow about 6.5 oz of meat per person. Cut meat into small medallions
and pound with meat hammer to 1/4 inch in thickness. If the flavor or
odor of the meat is too strong for your taste, soak the meat in
buttermilk for 5-6 hours. Drain and pat dry before using. Procedure
Saute shallots and garlic in clarified butter till they sweat. Add the
mushrooms. When the mushrooms have expelled their water and it is
evaporated remove ingredients from the pan.
Add more clarified butter to sear meat. Flour the medallions and shake
off excess. Sear on each side in the hot oil. Meat should remain rare
in the center.
Remove pan from flame. Add bourbon (an ounce or so per serving) and
return to heat and flame.
Remove meat from pan. Keep warm. Return garlic, shallots and mushrooms
to pan. Add 1 1/2 oz. of meat glaze a pinch of black walnuts and a
touch of syrup for each serving.
Melt the meat glaze. When the sauce begins to boil whip in pieces of
cold butter to desired consistency. (If bouillion has been used it
will be necessary to knead the butter with some flour to bring the
sauce to the correct consistency). Very little is needed. Season to
taste with salt and pepper. Serve over the medallions.

Mix the spices with the water, then mix this with the ground meats
thoroughly. Grind again with a hamburger plate (1/8 inch holes) for a
finer textured sausage. Makes 3 sausages.
Place the wrapped sausage loaves running across the wires on your
smokers grid. This will produce a better appearance on the finished
product. Leave 1/4" space between sausages for heat penetration. Wet
smoke-cook in a water smoker, or cook in a custom smoker or kettle
grill, or oven, for 45 to 50 minutes at 250 degrees. Do not exceed
275 degrees, or the plastic wrap may melt. You need to cook just long
enough to "set-up" the meat, 120-130 degrees internal.
Remove the sausage from the smoker, and cool for 10 to 30 minutes in
the plastic. You want the meat to reabsorb the liquids, for a moist
sausage. Then, remove the plastic wrap. Remove any liquid and
sediment from the surface with a paper towel. Dry smoke for 40 to 60
minutes, to an internal temperature of 150 to 155 degrees. Check the
temp with a meat thermometer from the end of the sausage. Remove
immediately when done, cool and refrigerate.
Notes: I tasted the beef version of this recipe, which is made with 1
1/2 lb beef chuck & 2 1/2 lb pork, and does not have the extra garlic
& black pepper at the end of the recipe. Twelve people made 1 sausage

VENISON HINDQUARTER^ - O O A K
Yield: 1 servings

10 lb venison
2 1/2 lb back fat
5 oz salt
2 teaspoon prague powder #2
4 oz corn syrup solids
1/2 cup honey
6 oz fermento
1 tablespoon ground white pepper
1 tablespoon nutmeg
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
I'm not certain this is really what honey bologna is, but the regular
version of this using powdered dextrose is one of the tastiest
sausages I have ever made. Basically, this is the Kutas recipe for
Lebanon bologna with honey substituted, with a little extra, and
using venison larded with back fat instead of beef. When you do this
with beef, you grind the meat through a 1/2 inch plate, mix it with
the salt, then let it sit 5 to 6 days, draining off the liquid. Then
you add 3/4 ounce of salt. However, as I discovered with the venison,
being a firmer and leaner meat, there won't be any liquid to draw off
~ so you might want to back off a bit on those 5 ounces of salt and
definitely add no more when it comes to mixing. I left the venison in
the fridge just 4 days, keeping it in one of those large white
kitchen trash bags to keep it from air-drying. I overhauled it once
during this time.
The problem with corn syrup solids is that they want to stick
together and that can be a problem in the finished sausage - you are
likely to get lumps. I keep them vacuum sealed to avoid these hard
clumps from forming in storage. This tendency would not normally be a
problem, but this recipe calls for no water - so you can't dissolve
the spices in the blender with liquid. What I did was mix it with the
dryer Fermento, then mix it all into the venison (after I'd run the
venison through a 3/8" plate). There was still a sticky mess in the
bottom of the bowl that just wouldn't dissolve, but the next step
took care of that. In order to insure proper distribution of the
cure, I ignored the recipe and dissolved the Prague Powder #2 in a
cup of cold water and mixed that in. This additional moisture - okay
in my mind because of the dryness of the meat - got the remaining
gook off the bottom of the mixing bowl. I figured this would be a
good time to mix in the honey, so I drizzled that over the meat and
mixed it in. Next, I mixed in the back fat, which was previously
ground through an 1/8" plate. I worked this in a little at a time,
until the consistency seemed right, mixed in all the spices, and
ground the whole shebang through an 1/8" plate. I let it sit in the
fridge for a couple hours while I got the smoker ready - stabilized
at 90º F, a wet towel over the smokestack, and a dutch oven filled
with water on the burner to get the humidity up.
I'm sticking with the times Kutas suggested, and that's a really long
time! The fermenting started Tuesday at 3:30pm, first temprature bump
yesterday at 7:30am, and the last one will be this morning at
11:30am. Then, the smoking/cooking will start about 5:30pm this
afternoon. Kutas suggests heavy smoking for a day or two, without
heat, then raising the temperature to 150º F until the sausage
temperature reaches 137º. That's for beef, I might take it a little
higher for the venison, though this stuff has been frozen long enough
to kill any trichina. If you're in doubt, get the internal
temperature up to 152º. I'm going to get the smokehouse temperature
at 130º after 5:30, vents wide open, goodbye towel and dutch oven,
let's let this stuff dry out a bit. You cannot smoke wet sausage.
After a couple of hours, I'll smoke it overnight then cook it
tomorrow. Then it has to age about a week in the fridge before it is
ready to eat!

Freeze venison until firm and solid enough to slice easily. Curinto
1/8-inch slices witha a sharp knife or slicer, then cut slices into
strips 1 & 1/2 inches wide. Meanwhile, blend remaining ingredients
and pour over venison strips that have been arranged in rows in a
shallow baking pan. Marinate overnight in refrigerator. Drain well.
: Dehydrator: Cover trays with strips without overlapping. Dry 4
hours at 140 F. Turn strips and rotate trays. Dry another 6 to 8
hours. Well-dried jekry should be dark and fibrous looking and
brittle enough to splinter when bent in two.
: Sun: Drying meat or venison jerky is not recommended in most
climates : Oven: Lay strips of marinated meat in rows over trays
being careful not to overlap strips. Dry at 110 F until strips will
splinter on the edges when bent in two, 18 to 24 hours.

VENISON ROAST
Contributed to the echo by: Bob Lester Assorted Meat herbs (whatever
you like) Put a LARGE oven cooking bag in an oblong baking pan (so
that the bag fits inside the pan). To the bag, add the venison. Add
all liquids, then veggies around the meat. Put the 'shrooms on top of
everything else, then the spices on top of them. You want to have
about 1 inch of liquid in the bottom of the bag, so if you need more,
add a little water (or white wine!).
Seal bag. Poke several small holes in top of bag to let steam escape.
Bake at 300-325 for 3-1/2 hours. (If you chop the veggies big, they
won't overcook).

VENISON STEAK WITH JUNIPER BERRY AND FIERY RED CHILE SAUCE
Red wine can be used instead of grape juice in the recipe. It is not
included here because alcohol is prohibited on many reservations. Also,
commercially sold berries tend to be more aromatic and pungent. If using
store-bought juniper berries, use half the amount called for. From 'Foods
of the Southwest Indian Nations' by Lois Ellen Frank, serves 6.
Wine ideas from Tara Q. Thomas: Steer clear of high-alcohol reds here,
which would ignite a fire when they come into contact with the chile.
Better choices would be soft, juicy reds with some spicy, gamey flavor,
like a simple Ctes-du-Rhne, or, if you can find it, Carlson Vineyard's
Tyrannosaurus Red, a spicy, grapey wine made from Lemberger grown in
Colorado.
To make sauce, wrap juniper berries in a clean kitchen towel and crush them
using a mallet or heavy skillet. Remove them from the towel and place in a
saucepan with grape juice, bay leaves, thyme and shallots. Simmer over
medium heat 20-25 minutes, until liquid has reduced to 1 cup.
Add veal stock, bring to a boil, then decrease heat to medium and simmer
for another 15 minute, until the sauce has reduced to 1 1/2 cups.
While the sauce is reducing, place the chiles in a small bowl and remove
their stems and seeds. With your fingers, tear the chiles into pieces about
the size of small beans. If you are sensitive to chiles, wear gloves to
tear the chiles into pieces. Set aside.
Remove the sauce from the heat and pass it through a fine sieve to remove
the herb leaves and berry skins.
Heat coals in an open grill until very hot (or heat a grill pan over high
heat until very hot).
Brush each of the steaks on the grill and cook for about 3 minutes, until
they have charred marks. Rotate the steaks a half turn and grill for
another 3 minutes, until the steaks have a crosshatched charred pattern.
Flip steaks over and grill for about 5 minutes more, until done as desired.
Ladle sauce onto each plate, top with steaks, patterned-side up, and
sprinkle with chile peppers.

Bring a medium pan of water to the boil. Cook the broccoli florets for
5-6 minutes, or until just tender. Remove from the heat and drain.
Heat a chargrill pan and chargrill the cooked broccoli in the dry pan
for 3-4 minutes until charred, then keep warm until ready to serve.
To make the ratatouille, heat the oil in a pan then saute the
remaining broccoli florets, broccoli stalk, potato and onion for a
few minutes, over a gentle heat to soften. Add the mushrooms to the
pan and cook for a further minute. Stir the red wine, tomato and
seasoning into the pan and heat for 4-5 minutes, or until the
vegetables are soft. To make the venison steak, heat the oil in a pan
until hot. Coat the venison strips in the flour, and pan-fry for 2-3
minutes. Pour in the red wine, season to taste and heat for a further
minute. Transfer the chargrilled broccoli florets to a serving plate
and spoon the ratatouille around. Serve the sliced venison on top.

Rosendale Road London SE21 8LG Steaks and chops can be cut from the
leg or loin. The fillet steaks from young deer are delicious and
tender and, we find, do not really need to be marinated before
cooking. We prefer to quick fry them, rather than grill (broil), as
this is more controllable and keeps them very moist. Have fillet
steaks, or medallions cut about 2 cm/3/4 inch thick. Heat a very
heavy frying pan over a high heat until almost red hot, then quickly
add a mixture of butter and oil, allowing 7.5 ml/1/2 tbsp each for
every two steaks. If they are large steaks or chops add more butter
and oil, but not too much. Put the steaks in the pan. They will sear
fast. Using a palette knife, not a fork, turn them over to brown the
other sides. Then turn the heat down to medium and cook for a further
3-4 minutes on each side. Always undercook venison- serve a little
pink. Remove the steaks to a hot dish and keep very hot while you add
one of the mixtures below to the pan to make a sauce for the steaks.
1) 3 crushed juniper berries, 1 wineglass of red wine, and salt and
pepper to taste: boil, then simmer for a few minutes, working all the
residue from the steaks into the sauce. 2) A handful of seeded
grapes, cut in half, 15 ml/1 tbsp of brandy, 1 wineglass of red wine,
and salt and pepper to taste: boil and simmer, working in the
residue. 3) 15 ml/1 tbsp of Dijon mustard, 1/2 wineglass of red wine,
and salt and pepper to taste: boil and simmer, working in the
residue, then add a little single (light) cream. 4) 3-4 spring onions
(scallions), cut finely and cooked for a few seconds in a little
butter in the pan, add 1 wineglass of dry white wine added and
simmer, then stir in a little single (light) cream with salt and
pepper to taste. Cook large steaks or chops in the same way, but add
2 wineglasses of red wine, and salt and pepper to taste after the
steaks have been seared. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, according to the
size and taste.

2. Saute the steaks with the butter for about 3 minutes on each
side. The meat should be done no more than medium rare.
3. Heat the wild mushroom game sauce, adjust for salt, pour over the
steks, and serve.
SAUCE:
This sauce is excellent for furred game, especially if the meat has
not been marinated. It is very much in the traditional European
Hunter's Style, which uses juinper berries and pickles. It was
developed through the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries by cooks
working on the great landed-gentry estates of France, Poland and
Germany.

1 sliced carrot
1 fat for browning
2 teacupfuls of water
1 few dried mushrooms
1 pepper
1 plenty of herbs (no rosemary

1 little salt
1 clove of garlic
1 thick slice of fat ham or
1 bacon
1 for the marinade:
1 sliced onion
1 chopped carrot
1 stick of celery
1 cup warmed olive oil
1 clove or two of garlic
2 bay leaves
1 thyme or marjoram
1 ground black pepper
1 little salt
1 tablespoon crushed coriander
1 half a bottle of red wine
1 thyme or marjoram
1 ground black pepper
1 little salt
1 tablespoon crushed coriander seeds
1 for the cherry sauce:
1 breakfast cupful of bottled
1 cherries, stoned
2 tablespoon redcurrant jelly
1 scrap of black pepper
1 teaspoon wine vinegar
2 teaspoon crushed coriander seeds
Leave the venison in the marinade for 2 days. To cook the meat, take
it from the marinade and free it from any pieces of vegetables
sticking to it. Brown it in the hot fat, put in an earthenware pot
into which it will fit without too much space to spare. In the same
pan fry a sliced onion and a sliced carrot. Put these into the pot,
pour over the strained marinade, add 2 teacupfuls of water, a few

While the meat is cooking prepare the cherry sauce. Take the stones
out of a breakfast cupful of bottled cherries. In a small pan
dissolve 30g/2 tbsp of redcurrant jelly. Add the cherries and a
little of their juice, a scrap of black pepper, a 1 tsp wine vinegar,
10g/2tsp crushed coriander seeds. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Fifteen minutes before serving press all the liquid and the vegetables
from the venison through a sieve. Keep the meat hot in its covered
pan. Reduce the sauce obtained from the venison to two thirds of its
volume by rapid boiling. Add it to the cherry sauce and pour the
whole thing back over the meat. Cut the slice of bacon into large
squares, put it round the meat, and return the pot to the oven for a
few minutes. The coriander seeds are important to the dish - they
give an aromatic orangey flavour. Brown lentils go well with stewed
venison.

Pick through the cranberries, removing any stems. combine the wine,
maple syrup, zests and cinnamon stick in a heavy saucepan and bring
to a boil. Add the cranberries, reduce the heat, and gently simmer
for 3-4 minutes, or until barely cooked. Remove the pan from the heat
the moment the cranberry skins begin to split; they should not be
mushy.
Strain the berries over another heavy saucepan. Discard the zests and
cinnamon stick, and boil the sauce until thick and syrupy. There
should be about 3/4 cup sauce. Let it cool slightly and stir in the
cranberries. Add salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper to taste. Keep the
sauce warm.
Just before serving, drain the meat and thoroughly blot dry. Season
each medallion with coarse salt and cracked black pepper. Heat the
oil in a non-stick skillet over high heat. Cook the meat for 1 minute
per side, or until cooked to taste. Spoon the cranberry sauce on a
platter or plates and arrange the medallions on tops. Garnish with
herb sprigs and serve at once.

Place the meat in a large saucepan and cover with hot stock made from
the bones of the deer or with hot salted water, using 1 level teaspoon
salt to 500 ml (2 pints) water. Bring quickly to the boil to seal the
meat, skim, and add the vegetables. Lower the heat and simmer until
tender. (About: 2-3 hours, depending on the size of the joint.)
Drain, leave in a warm oven for 5-10 minutes to dry off, then slice
the meat. Serve with frunienty and a little of the strained cooking
liquid. If you prefer roasted verison cook 1.35-1.8 kg (3-4 lb)

ing the bowl in a warm place. Drain. Boil the wheat gently in the
milk for 20 minutes, add the dried fruit and continue boiling
gently for another 40 minutes. Beat the egg yolk with the honey and
cinnamon anci stir into the wheat and milk. Add a little extra milk
if the mixture appears too stiff, but don't letit get runny. The
grains of wheat should be soft. Season very sparingly with salt. If

Since venison is a lean meat, you never cook it very long, which means
you have more time to spend on each other.
Because there is not a lot of fat and the meat itself has a big
flavor, it complements the forward tastes in the red wine-cherry
sauce. In the winter, there is no better choice to serve for a
romantic dinner for two than this luscious meat.
Arrange each plate with as much attention as you would give to a plate
at a formal meal for ten.
1. Position a rack in the center of the oven, and preheat the oven to
450 F.
3. With the tip of a sharp knife, make inch-deep slits in the meat and
insert the garlic slivers.
Pat the chopped thyme and the salt and pepper well onto the venison.
4. Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat and brown
the meat well, turning it once, 5 to 6 minutes.
6. While the meat is resting, place the wine, cherries, and 2 of the
thyme sprigs in the skillet and bring to a boil, scraping up any brown
bits.
Whisk in the red currant jelly and then swirl in the butter.
7. Slice the tenderloin 1/2 inch thick, and arrange the slices
decoratively on two dinner plates.
Spoon the hot cherry sauce on top and garnish with the remaining fresh
thyme sprigs.
Serve immediately.
Note: If you are substituting pork tenderloin for the venison, preheat
the oven to 400 F in step 1. Continue with the recipe, searing the
meat for 10 minutes in step 4 and roasting it until pale pink, 10
minutes, in step 5. Let the meat rest for 10 minutes before serving.
All else remains the same.

Mix the spices with the water, then mix this with the ground meats
thoroughly. Grind again with a hamburger plate (1/8 inch holes) for a
finer textured sausage. Makes 3 sausages.
Place the wrapped sausage loaves running across the wires on your
smokers grid. This will produce a better appearance on the finished
product. Leave 1/4" space between sausages for heat penetration. Wet
smoke-cook in a water smoker, or cook in a custom smoker or kettle
grill, or oven, for 45 to 50 minutes at 250 degrees. Do not exceed
275 degrees, or the plastic wrap may melt. You need to cook just long
enough to "set-up" the meat, 120-130 degrees internal.
Remove the sausage from the smoker, and cool for 10 to 30 minutes in
the plastic. You want the meat to reabsorb the liquids, for a moist
sausage. Then, remove the plastic wrap. Remove any liquid and
sediment from the surface with a paper towel. Dry smoke for 40 to 60
minutes, to an internal temperature of 150 to 155 degrees. Check the
temp with a meat thermometer from the end of the sausage. Remove
immediately when done, cool and refrigerate.
Notes: I tasted the beef version of this recipe, which is made with 1
1/2 lb beef chuck & 2 1/2 lb pork, and does not have the extra garlic
Page 1535
& black pepper at the end of the recipe. Twelve people made 1 sausage
disappear in less than 10 minutes. Making this without the casing
made for an irregular shape, but nobody cared!

Whichever way you look at it, it would seem that not many people would
like to stick their forks into certain domestic animals with special
status, like horses. In Australia people prefer kangaroos to horses.
Chicken, on the other hand, is eaten with a good appetite, but here,
too, we find national variations. In the USA, only 5,8% don't eat
chicken, in Germany the figure is 16,4%.

WILD BOAR
Yield: 6 servings
Page 1551
2 oz pitted prunes
2 oz sultanas (golden raisins)
4 tablespoon olive oil
4 oz streaky (fatty) bacon
1 1/2 lb wild boar rib steaks
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 pint wine vinegar
3 bay leaves
2 tablespoon sugar
1 freshly grated nutmeg
1 fine sea salt
Many regions of Italy feature wild boar on restaurant menus, but this
is a speciality of Sardinia. The sweet and sour sauce also combines
very well with venison.
Chop the prunes and put them to plump up with the sultanas (golden
raisins) in a little warm water. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan
and add the diced bacon. Fry until browned, then add the boar steaks
to the pan and brown briskly on both sides. Turn down the heat and
cook gently for about 15 minutes.
Mix the flour with half the vinegar in a small saucepan, then add the
remaining vinegar, the bay leaves and sugar. Simmer gently, stirring
to make a smooth sauce. Add the drained sultanas (golden raisins) and
prunes, and nutmeg to taste. Cook gently for about 10 minutes .
Season the boar steaks with salt, then pour over the sauce. Cook for a
further 10 minutes or until the steaks are tender.

Layer the deboned wild ducks inside the domestic duck. If you opened
them up, they should all be basically sheets of meat. Keep it as
evenly distributed as possible, and fill with the fennel-berry-meat
stuffing. Do not overfill. Sew or tie the results into a cylinder, a
"ballotine". You can use well greased twine to wrap a fairly
attractive package, or borrow some meat netting from your butcher.
Roast at 400 for ten minutes or until nicely browned, then turn the
heat down to 325 and cook until the internal temperature of the inner
layers of the duck (not the stuffing) reaches 130. Let stand for ten
minutes before carving.
The very simple and silly cheat for cooking wild duck is to wrap the
cleaned carcasses in a domestic duck skin, and sear at high
temperatures so that the fat gets crispy and bastes the carcass.
Wild duck is exceptionally lean, and may be very gamey depending on
its diet. It is often improved by barding with bacon, fatty duck
skin or some other source of fat.
Page 1556
If you prefer to keep the lean and gamey taste intact, try an
intensely woodsy marinade or dry rub of about half rosemary and half
juniper, and pair it with roasted cippolini onions and wild rice.
Cooking time should be either short and hot or long and moist and
slow, as duck tends to be good either rare or falling off the bone
well done.

For stuffing, cook onions slowly in the butter until tender. Scrape
into large mixing bowl. Pour cognac into same skillet and boil until
reduced by half, scraping bottom of skillet to loosen any pan
drippings. Scrape into bowl with onions. Add pork and veal, beaten
eggs, salt, pepper, allspice, thyme and garlic. Beat vigorously with
wooden spoon until thoroughly blended.
To assemble pate, line bottom and sides of loaf pan with blanched
bacon (to blanch plunge bacon into boiling water, remove immediately
and drain briefly under cold running water), reserving a few strips
for top of pate. Drain game strips, reserving marinade. Beat marinade
into stuffing. Divide stuffing into three parts. Dip hands in cold
water and arrange first third of the stuffing in bottom of loaf pan.

I have had both wild and domestic pig cooked with this recipe both are
excellent. This is a great recipe for large family gatherings.
Trim off any exposed fat. Rub salt, pepper, and oregano into the meat.
Place the meat into a large roasting bag. Pour the can of pineapple
over the meat, juice and all. Remove all air from bag and seal.
Wrap the meat several times with aluminum foil it is important that
it is sealed completely.
Place the meat in a oven roasting pan, cover and cook at 200 degrees
for 8-10 hours. Let stand for 10 minutes and serve.
My favorite side dishes for this recipe are pickled beets, yams, and
coleslaw with raisins.

I recommend brushing the exposed bones with olive oil (heck, brush the
whole thing, and while you're at it, crush a clove of garlic and some
rosemary and add that to the oil. Yum.) If you don't, and you roast
at high temperatures, the ends of the bones can crisp and become
brittle or burned.
My presentation for rabbit goes like this, starting with the whole
animal. I debone all four legs (hindlegs and thighs in one piece,
forelimbs and shoulders in one piece, remove all bone). I pound the
pieces of meat flat under plastic wrap with a mallet, stuff them with
a mixture of fresh herbs, bread crumbs and prosciutto, or perhaps
blue cheese and walnuts and basil, and tie them into rolls.
Then I trim the saddle, which is the part in front of the pelvis
which you just removed the thighs from, into one neat long section
that ends at the bottom of the ribcage. Put the saddle aside for
roasting whole, or you can take it into small saddle chops.
I use scissors to remove the bottom half of the ribcage (the belly
portion), and then cut the neck portion that sticks out above the
ribcage.
I recommend tying the saddle chops back together for roasting with
oiled cotton thread; this gives better temperature control.
Attempting to take a cleaver or meat saw through a whole cooked
saddle is a bit more problematical than tying back together a cut raw
saddle, as I discovered early on in my gourmet rabbit-munching career.
At this point, you're ready for roasting. Brush the whole kit and
caboodle with lovely flavored oil, then roll in a mixture of powdered
chanterelle mushrooms and crushed hazelnuts (porcini and pistachio
works great on venison, BTW). Make sure exposed bone ends are
covered with oil. I suggest roasting at moderately high temperatures
for a fairly short time, say 400 degrees for 8 to 12 minutes. You
want the meat thoroughly done (white), but not dry.
Take the remainder of the scraps - bones, flank, liver, heart, etc -
and boil them down for stock. Drain and shred the boiled meat, and
for a serious treat, add some pine nuts and white truffles or white
truffle oil to this rabbit pate. Use the stock for cooking down
risotto, and serve with tiny baby artichoke heads or if you live in a

Skin and gut the rabbit taking great care not to rupture the
intestines. This would give a very bad taste to the meat. Wash the
rabbit thoroughly, then cut into serving pieces. Save the kidneys
and heart as extra treats! Roll and coat the rabbit thoroughly with
seasoned flour made with 1 cup of flour, 1 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. of
pepper. Brown the pieces in bacon fat or if you prefer, half butter
and oil. After all the pieces have been browned on all sides,
remove and set aside. Sauté one onion in the pan until lightly
browned. Sprinkle with one tablespoon of flour and mix well,
scraping up all the browned bits. Return the rabbit to the pan and
add slowly water to cover the meat. Stir to mix evenly. Cover
tightly and simmer on low heat for one hour or more. Meanwhile, peel
two or three potatoes and cut into one-inch cubes. Scrub four or
more carrots and cut into slices. Add to the stew and continue to
simmer until the vegetables are tender. Taste the broth and season
to taste. Thicken the stew if desired. Serve with freshly baked
raisin bannock. Don't hesitate to dip chunks of bannock into the
gravy!

Brown the sirloin over medium high heat in a large skillet just until

remaining 20 ramps in butter for about 10 minutes, or until
thoroughly cooked. Remove one cup of the broth from the soup and pour
it into the skillet. Add salt and pepper to taste. Cook for about 15
minutes at a low simmer. Remove the meat from the broth (serve

Wild Rice and Mushroom Quiche with White Pepper Cream Sauce
Grind nutmeg (or use pre-ground) and sprinkle over cooled wild rice
and mushroom mixture. Stir to distribute throughout mixture. Add
cheese and mix thoroughly. (Note: may be prepared ahead and
refrigerated at this point. As a matter of fact, I always do so to
this day so I won't have to get up in the middle of the night to
start this one.)
When ready to cook, preheat oven to 300 degrees. Place the desired
number of 4-ounce custard cups or ramekins on a cookie sheet and
coat heavily with non-stick spray. Fill each cup almost to the top
with wild rice and mushroom mixture. For each cup, place 1 egg and 1
ounce of heavy cream in a mixing bowl; whisk to combine. Fill cups
to cover wild rice and mushroom mixture.
Place on middle rack and cook 1 hour. Depending on how evenly your
oven cooks, you may want to rotate the cookie sheet about 3/4 of the
way through. The quiches are done when they are puffy and not wet at
Page 1575
the center. When done, let stand about 15 minutes in the cups, then
turn out on plates. Set right side up and cover half with White
Pepper Cream Sauce. Garnish with diced tomatoes and parsley.

not hot enough to cause much dripping or shrinking.
Remove and put a two week's supply in your refrigerator. Wrap the

To cook, put the patties or sausages in a frying pan and add enough
water to cover up 1/3 of the way on them. Put a cover on the
fryingpan and boil for 15 minutes. Remove, pourout the water from
the frying pan and then put the patties or sausages back into the
frying pan and brown them slightly on all sides. Makes wonderful
eating.

Place the pork, half of the chopped garlic and 2 cups water in a large
saucepan (or in a pot.) Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until
about 1/2 cup of water remains.
Meanwhile, in a small pot or pan with a lid, place the tomatillos and
whole serranos. Add water to cover (actually, they will float, but you
want enough water so they aren't resting on the bottom.) Bring to a
simmer, reduce heat, cover and let it simmer for about 20 minutes.
Remove the tomatillos and serranos from the water (be careful, as they
will be hot,) remove stems from serranos (if present,) and place in a
blender. Also add the cilantro, the remaining garlic, and the white
onion to the blender. Blend until smooth.
Pour the tomatillo mixture over the pork. Stir, bring back to a
simmer, and reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally,
about 30 minutes more, or until the sauce reaches the desired
consistency/concentration. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
This makes delicious soft tacos. Serve hot with warm corn tortillas,
crumbled white Mexican cheese (queso fresco or similar,) and white
rice (optional.)

ZUNI SUCCOTASH
The word succotash comes from a Narragansett Indian word meaning 'boiled
whole kernels of corn.' The heat in this version can be adjusted, depending
on the type of chili used.
* red, pinto, adzuki, cranberry or anasazi
Cut corn kernels off cobs. Heat butter, margarine or oil; saute onion over
low heat until translucent. Add corn. Cook 5 minutes over low heat,
stirring constantly.
Add beans, chilies and zucchini; stir well. Add water; cook over low heat
15 minutes, stirring every 3 minutes. (Corn will caramelize slightly.)
Season with salt and pepper.
Yield: 8 servings.

Combine with sunflower meal and chopped squash in a saucepan.
Add water and salt. Cover pot tightly and simmer for 1 hour, stirring
occasionally.
Toward the end of the cooking period, remove cover, if necessary, so that
the mixture
can thicken. It should be thick and gelatinous. This dish is good warm or
cold.
Variation: Near the end of the cooking, add chopped, roasted, peeled green
chilis.
I also like to use other kinds of squash especially acorn and other fall
squash.

Start in a pot with at least 1.5 gallon capacity. I generally cook the
meat completely, add some extra water to cover meat and bring to a
good boil. Set in a cold place to let the grease congeal at the top.
(I use this time to get all the veggies ready, get out the spices,
etc.) When the grease is thickened, scrape it off the top.
Pre-heat oven and cookie sheet to 300 degrees. Spread the garlic,
onions, and raw peppers out on a lightly buttered sheet. Leave in oven
10 minutes, then broil until the thinnest edges of veggies just start
to turn brown. Stir and broil as long as you can without much more
browning. Dump veggies into the pot with the meat, start cooking and
Page 1592
As veggies and meat are cooking with a slow boil, begin adding
non-salted spices. Stir occasionally. Add water as needed to
maintain a stew consistency. Gradually add all ingredients except
soup and beans, adding salted items a little at a time to keep the
mix from getting too much salt for your taste. Add pepper powder or
veins to increase heat as desired. (However the heat seems when you
are finished, it will be slightly hotter the next day. I have to
consider this when cooking, as my wife and kids are not CHs.) When
the raw tomatoes are nearly cooked, add the soup, and bring back to a
boil, stirring often. Add the beans, juice and all. Simmer 20
minutes, stirring regularly. If possible, let cool overnight and
re-heat before serving. Re-skim grease if necessary before heating.
Serve with grated cheddar cheese added to serving.
