They both look outstanding, we just had a stew the other night, I didn't take any pictures.
Also big fan of liver and onions..I think.its better than calves liver.

We also do tenderloins wrapped in bacon..

For veggies, partial to asparagus  and Brussels sprouts.

Loins wrapped in bacon is fantastic...I’ll cut up a jalapeño along with it...
I haven’t made stew yet...but that’s next

I don't hunt, and I'm not much of a cook, so in the broiler, in the mouth if I had venison lol.

So how'd you do, Bill? Just the one, or are you an archery guy too?
Thinkin 'bout cusk on the grill......

Bacon wrapped backstrap... I'm lickin' my chops. Pun intended. Been a big heart guy for a long time. Boil it up with onion, garlic S/P and slice it thin for snacks and sandwiches. Few years ago I had a hankerin' for a steak on the grill and the freezer was MT. Wait, got some hearts here...

Thaw, slice fairly thick, season and slap on some charcoal. Crazy, unexpectedly good. Much more tender than I'd imagined, tasty, not too "organy" if that makes sense. Now my new favorite change of pace.

Can't do brains or tongue. Did beef tongue but the texture turned me off. No kidneys or sweetbreads. Still trying to bring myself to fry some nuts. Had plenty of Rocky Mountain oysters when we live in SDAK but, well, I don't know. Liver is great and really the only time I get fresh liver anymore. Calf and chicken is only in the frozen section.

The tendies never make it out of deer camp. Usually breakfast  ;)

I don't hunt but I have buddies that do and they throw me some meat here and there. Last time I aquired a lb of some ground venison was late summer. It was from a hit deer in town. A friend is on the list. F&G called him so he got a free deer. I made some burritos with it. A little smoked paprika white pepper cumin chili powder and a bit of cayenne. Black beans and corn a little bit of some shredded cheddar I smoked

Don’t have a specific recipe, but sausage. And easy to take on the ice and grill it up

Mmm. All the above look so good. Pool guy, thats one dish I've actually never done, Venison Parm and sounds awesome. Duh, can't believe I never thought of that.
One of my favs on the ice is venison pepper steaks. Fast fried slices with peppers, onions smothered in cheese.
2 of my favs at home are Venison stroganoff, and the ole reliable venison roast in the crockpot with all the fixins.

We eat venison twice a week all year long so there are sooo many different recipes we use. But im a simple guy and my favorite of all time is just backstrap or tenderloin thin sliced tossed in a hot pan and some mashed taters.
Great to see some others. Thanks for sharing.

I like the stroganoff idea...I never had very good luck with roasts..but that dish looks awesome, thanks for sharing !!!
I also have 3 kinds of sausage in 1 lb packs, good for peppers and onions and breakfast etc...the butcher I use in Maine  has some good mixes.


Esox are those sausage links more like a summer sausage ??

Gosh hot pan filled with butter salt and pepper and some veni hard to beat, staple for every Hunter Fisher.  Corned venison roast are amazing fix it up like traditional boiled dinner.  Corning venison is simple also, just need a little extra room in fridge for a week or so.  Another simple but tasty way is to grill or broil whole peice off the loin just long enough so it won't bleat at you then add some melded blue cheese butter slabbed on top salt and pepper to taste

Made venison meatballs, kids found them in the fridge and ate over half of them before I made “Swedish “ meatballs.
Smaller meatballs are frozen store bought.  ::)

Breakfast: Bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches
Lunch: (in the bacon pan) veni back strap on a bed of onions/peppers/mushrooms. Break a few eggs over it, add cheese, and serve on bulky rolls. Never gets old.

The Spice House has awesome stuff. However, that location is only one a few outlets. The company and main store is in Milwaukee on Old World Third Street across from the Usinger sausage store. Been there many times.

The Penzey family started it in 1957. When siblings couldn't agree on something one part got to keep the Spice House and the others built a similar spice business (also HQ in Wisconsin), Penzey's Spices. Either way you can't go wrong if you're looking for top shelf spices, herbs and blends.

Just a proud WI had to set that straight  ;)2

And there is the other half, a Penzey Store on Grand Ave. in St. Paul, MN.  Great store as well.

I’ve got 2 football roasts in the crock right now so when I get home from work I can sit down and be a glutton and watch football and drink beer

Was going to drive to fish this weekend but I figured, yeah if I had nothing to do and was bored it’s fine but I’ll go make more money, these early stock fish just don’t do it for me anymore, if I have options. I litterally don’t even use bait anymore and you can swim the bare hooks or jig heads around the smaller fish to get to the larger lol. I get a kick out of the guys looking for secret baits or lures for them lolll. Hell, I took Rando out one day and showed him how you could tease them up the hole and out onto the thin ice without ever hooking them
