What's for dinner?

[H20fwler]

Last week after a cold morning in the deer stand I ran home for a quick bite. I was wanting a "stick to your ribs" fast meal that would last me through a cold afternoon sit.

So I took some fresh bulk sausage, mixed in some Tony's, pepper and oregano made a couple patties;

Toasted a couple slices of bread, spread on a little peanut butter soft fried an egg and added a schmear of mayo.....for what my kids named years ago as the "Stanwich"
It sounds different but the tastes blend and it is flat out awesome to a cold hunter!

I cooked up a feast for the family last night after returning from our grouse hunt.

Made up a tray of hot chestnuts as an appetizer;

Deep fried some pheasant in fresh peanut oil;

A plate of pheasant, ruffed grouse, chestnuts and fries with a little ranch dressing for dip sprinkled with Romano cheese;

The grouse was so tender and tasty it stole the show....I didn't think anything could make pheasant take a back seat, I was wrong.

Cold morning. Brunch is in order. Taters and onions are about done. Ham and eggs are next. Take a rest and hit the tree again.

Heart was on the menu, was blessed with the opportunity to take a doe on Sunday night. Got it done with stick an string during the rifle opener.
Breaded an fried with Cajun shore lunch, with a side salad an home grown canned green beans.

Strap steak planned for tonight, been waiting all year for this one.

Gunna give canning deer a try. Looking to save a little bit of cash an will process this one in house. Save the roasts, steaks, ribs, chunk up some stew meat an chislic, an can the rest to replace the ground burger.

Heart is on our menu tonight. Sliced it up last night into popcorn shrimp sized pieces. It's SO good cooked in a hot pan with butter and onions.

Tell you what... cooking these just about enough to make me ok with having hogs rooting up my place from time to time... these were from a young sow harvested a few weeks back. Not the least tiniest bit of gaminess. Cook the ribs using an "instapot" pressure cooker recipe. Ribs are fall-off-the-bone done in the pressure cooker in about 20 minutes. Only liquid used in the pot was two Sam Adam beers and a splash of vinegar. Once done in the pot, slather them up with a bit of Rays BBQ sauce and throw them in the broiler just long enough to start caramelizing the sauce. Hardly any trouble at all and delicious. Also got three kinds of sausages back from my processor made out of hogs trapped this year... mild sow, hot sow, and smoked boar... probably share a few more pics soon as I have some later in the week.

Bszweda - That plate is a sight for hungry eyes !! I can almost taste it.

Got my chance at some fresh heart last week, took this;

Cleaned it up, diced it... little olive oil/onions/peppers/white wine and seasoning....and it was on!

Back in the heart game as well,
Dad was able to put down a doe on the second to last day of rifle season, he tends to like to wait till the last possible second.

Decided to go a different route this time an opted to try my hand at pickled deer heart. Will give it a try this evening after it has had 24hrs to sit.

Slow boiled for 45 min, cut into small chunks
3 cups white vinegar, wished I had apple cider on hand.
1 cup water
1 Tbls mustard seed
2 cloves garlic
2 tsp chilli flake
1 tsp pickling salt
Brine simmered 5 min.
Used up the last of the onion on a batch of canned venison. Otherwise that would have been a welcome addition.

Pickled deer heart and tongue is awesome!

And keeping the heart topic going, here's my dad's heart he gifted me. It's in the freezer and will be ready for a Christmas appetizer when my bro gets in town!
