Big bucks are nice, but it is hard to beat a roast from a nice fat doe; in this case it is the one Troupe shot a couple weeks ago.
The processor packaged two nice roasts from one ham and steaks from the other. Tonight it was a pot roast with sliced carrots, potatoes, and onions accompanied with salad and fresh baked bread. The venison was as tasty as it was tender. Every one liked it so much that we were told to go get a couple more this fall to top off the freezers! A tough job, but someone has to do it.

Sounds delicious. I made the same thing from a doe I shot last year. Good stuff indeed!

Another good, quick recipe: put about 8 ounces of meat (you dont have to do anything to it for preparation) in a crock pot with one can of fire roasted diced tomatoes, one can of fire roasted whole kernel corn and one can of pinto beans. Add one teaspoon of salt and one teaspoon of black pepper and 5 shakes of Tabasco or Louisiana hot sauce. Stir cold and then put it on HIGH or 375 degrees for 6.5 hours. Mmmmm, Mmmmm good!
you are absolutely right.....nothing better...
The other day we had venison goulash

broccoli and carrots and a nice cold beer....
really good stuff.....

Many of the fledglings have left the nest here in the past year, so we are no longer feeding a family of 12. A few deer and an elk or other larger critter would be great - and there would actually be enough to go around for once!

Rihmfire,
Thanks for the appetizing picture. From now on, I will try to remember to take pics of the really neat game meals made by the ladies of the house so I can share them with like minded epicures.
For starters, here is a picture of a coconut/pumpkin pie Lyle made on-request for 86er. You will have to ask him how it tasted as I did not get a single bit of it!
I think that he and Brandon ate it all one afternoon!

I've taken two deer so far this year (Archery). All I have left is a front shoulder and a backstrap. Rear hams went one from each deer into the smoker, and one from each cut into steaks. One of the smoked roasts was sliced and eaten in about a day and a half by my little tribe, and the other smoked roast was cut and chopped and made into chili. Two shoulders were crock-potted with taters, carrots and onions, and the backstraps and tenderloins were seared and roasted. All the rest went into jerky, which was also eaten in short order. Five kids can really pack it away ! Luckily gun season opens in two weeks...

I make a mean pumpkin pie, and I grew my own pumpkins this year for just that, but I've never heard of coconut/pumpkin pie! I may have to give that a try. Sounds strange to me, but I'm all for trying something new.

Shooter,
If 86er tells you he liked it, let me know and I will ask Lyle to post her recipe.
It did smell nice while baking, but then I like both coconut and pumpkin.

Without a doubt, venison pot roast is a delectable feast. However, the ultimate has to be chicken-fried backstrap steaks served with my lovely bride's famous jalapeno mustard sauce and a big plate of turnip or collard greens and a pone of cracklin corn bread....Now, I gotta go find some vittles.

I grew up in Arizona and we didn't eat much venison: most went as dog food. Wasn't until the family had moved to Oregon that I discovered the stuff was quite edible. I know it must depend a lot on what the deer are eating: I do know that the deer that have been stuffing themselves on filaree (and who knows what else) can chase you plumb out of the kitchen when it is cooking...

That would be great! I'm just curious as to whether or not it's a special recipe, or if you just add coconut to the pumpkin pie?
