What's for dinner?

Heart is our favorite part of the deer.
 
Looking for some guidance on this dish.
Tried my hand at deer heart fried in onions and butter last night. Seasoned with garlic powder, onion powder and salt. Cooked to medium, still slightly pink.

Tender but thought it was a tad chewy and lacking in flavor.
Any suggestions on where I went wrong. Know someone has to be out there that still fries up this tradition at deer camp.
Trampled Turtles, There were some wonderful deer heart meals in the old deer camps but regrettably I did not learn the specific cooking methods used. It does look like your pan might be too full of meat and onions all at once though so that the onions and meat were maybe steamEd or boiled versus fried. Cooking it in a larger pan or in two batches might be worth a swing.
 
Trying my hand at hot Italians.

Deer football roast with a jar of this fall's pickled banana peppers. Plus some onions, garlic, dash of Worcestershire and some beef bouillon.
Anything I'm forgetting?

Package of ranch dressing mix and a stick of butter. Sprinkle half the packet over the roast and rest around the sides. Also I put 2/3 of the jar of pepperoncino's in along with 1/2 of the juice from them.

We do this with a chuck roast, it always turns out good.

Yep, we do too. Referred to as Mississippi roast ... after 7-8 hours shred meat in all the juice's and an makes awesome hot beef sandwhiches.
 
Italian seasoning?
 
Smoked my first brisket last night. I was fully prepared for it to be pretty lousy. Much to my surprise it was delicious!

John ... you should walk us through how you prepped and smoked that brisket. What grade of meat? How long out of paper and how long in paper?

Cream cheese stuffed backstrap and a couple pork butts in the Primo. Backstrap turned out really really good

Always considered myself a lucky dog to have a rut bday. Never shot a buck on this day but have taken some does. Tonight we are having salmon, gourmet cannolis, and a cake custom topped by my kids.
