Wild Game Recipes

I got Bear, wild boar, rabbit, venison and venison sausage, moose, and elk. I'm open to suggestions on cooking these critters for stews, steaks, meatloaves, or finger foods. The bear and the boar will be my most challenging as have never done it before. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanx

    I picked this up off a "Discount" table for about $4 years (hell, decades) ago; I don't hunt but occasionally get some elk from a friend, the book's been good with recipes and even a fun read; worth hunting down.

    If you need to adopt a son, let me know I'll apply. 

    Here is my best venison recipe. Served it to big shots and got praise 

    Day 1 -  Cut your venison in thin long strips. Marinade 24 hrs in sprite

    Day 2 - drain, don't rinse, sprite. Marinade 24 hours in 50/50 Italian dressing and dales steak sauce

    cut philly cheese in 1/4x2" strips. Put in freezer

    day 3 - lay down a slice of bacon, then a slice of marinaded meat, then a jalapeño pepper if so desired  then jelly roll and put on a kabob. Stick a frozen chunk of philly cheese in the roll right before cooking

    cook on the egg till the bacon is done 



  • I smoke probably 20 deer and hog hams a year that we use as finger foods! Perfect for football games and what not. Just smoke and slice. Can use as finger food or on sandwiches. I mix up some Tony C's creole butter injection and then either Allegro wild game marinade for the deer or pineapple juice for the hog and inject it and let sit for a few hours (you can live a bit in the isn or back to soak up too). After it sits i coat it with Southern Flavor Wild Game rub.

    Have your egg set up for indirect heat at around 225-250 and add wood of your choice, I like to use hickory on the deer and a fruit wood on the hog. Baste occasionally and usually done in around 6 hours.
