Venison and wild game cooking.

[Alex978]

Look amazing! A beanpot is a must have to make this, right?

 

[ThePreBanMan]

Not wild game cooking....but it's cooking related.....and I'm shamelessly posting this just to show off. I'm baby sitting a pot of baked beans today. Got deli style natural casing hot dogs to go with......

Maple syrup
Molasses
Dry mustard
Salt pork

That's it.

I'm 3 hours in.....about 4 yo go.

Didn't know we had one. New england style baked beans are not bbq as far as I'm concerned.

Can be done in a casserole dish with a lid.....but bean pots work best. The lid on a good beam pot has a gap in it to let just yhe right abount of steam out to thicken the liquid but not let too much out so they end up drying out.

Amazon has em for 33 bucks. Get the bigger one like a 4.5 quart. Those hold 2 pounds of beans.....if I'm gonna baby sit them all day I make a big batch and freeze the leftovers.

Soak 2 bags of navy beans over night (2 pounds total)

In the morning drain and then rinse the beans.

Dice one onion and add the drained beans to a stock pot with the diced onion. Simmer for 45 minutes. Drain the beans and reserve the liquid

Put a pealed onion in the bottom of the pot and add the drained beans

Mix
1 cup mollases
1 cup maple syrup
Half cup packed brown sugar
2 tsp dried mustard
2 tbsp golden spicy brown mustard
Half cup of the reserved bean liquid

Add the mixture to the pot

Score a 12 ounce piece of salt pork and place on top

Add reserved bean liquid to the pot to cover the veams by quarter inch

Cover the pot and into a 300 degree oven

Check every hour and add reserved bean liquid if the top looks dry

Should take 7 hours or so. Remove the lid for the last hour to thicken the sauce and brown up the salt pork a little.

Done.

A crockpot will work in a pinch.

I’ve never had good luck with beans in a crock pot. I’ve cooked them for up to 24 hours and they are still hard.

Did you pre soak? A bean pot is best but I’ve done it in a crockpot. Not the same depth of flavor though but they still disappear.

While in Ohio they are eating cats, here in Montana we are grinding deer meat, adding beef suet and packaging for future ground meat related meals.

Mrs. Chuckster and I will start making homemade pasta soon now that the cooler weather is almost here.

I use a kitchenaide attachment. Done in minutes so we don't bother to buy pasta anymore. Just make it when we need it.

I make the dough with egg instead of water. We like the flavor better.

Very nice.

First venison stew of the fall in the crock pot this morning. I love my vegetables chunky......2 large yellow onions and I just quarter them.

Dinner will be ready when I walk in the door after work. Nothing beats that.

At some point I want to make a venison stew the old fashioned way......make a rue with butter and flour and slow cook on the stove for hours. But I can't help but use the crock pot for stew and chili cuz its ready when I walk in door after work.

 

[whacko]

Came out good. Figured out what to do with those leftover hamburger buns.....Garlic bread!

 

[peterk123]

Backstraps, garden veggies and homemade white bread. It's been trial and error but I finally have bun with a super soft crust.

4lbs of venison and 1lb bacon ground together also works great to add some fat and makes killer burgers!!

So how did you do it? I’ve been using a Japanese milk roll recipe that comes out soft and has good flavor.

This. I was coming real close using raw milk. But then I tried adding the roux and it gave that nice soft outer crust. This last time I added an egg and some butter. The added fat made it perfect. The only thing I don't do is add as much sugar as the japenese recipe. I only add a couple pinches because I don't want it to be sweet.

Pan roasted Pheasant with roasted grapes.

Butternut squash and sauted asparagus. Some roasted Brussel sprouts would have gone better to stick with the seasonal vegetables and the fall motif.....but couldn't find any at market basket lol

 

[peterk123]

Pasta, pesto and venison.
