fo5ter Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) Hi, did you get yours from bradgate park? I got my half a fallow the other day. a chef friend of mine showed me how to butcher it without wasting a scrap! the whole thing is sitting in my freezer looking shop-bought. its one thing to learn how to do it but its another to know which cuts are best cooked differently. Hind leg: (no pun intended) you can get 2 god size roasting joints from here and a good bone for stock front leg: best diced and stewed or casseroled and a good bone for stock Ribs: back ribs and spare ribs (cut 'em in half top/bottom) can be grilled with or w/out marinade Neck: nice bit of braising meat There is also a nice quick-fry steak between the hind leg and the ribs. EDIT: Just had the steak for dinner before going to work - I haven't had venison since i was too young to apreciate it - that was the best steak I ever had!

Sauer Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 venison steaks are simply the best.... scary how much saddle i wasted coz i wasnt cooking em right!!! no matter what too chewy but i forced myself to eat rather than waste the best cuts. found a local chef in one of local hotels and bold as brass as to go to kitchen asked him for advice.....no probs he saidbring one in ill show you. secret was i didntt have the pan hot enough for a start and was drying it out. need pan screaming hot for first minute each side then reduce heat and keep turning regularly until done way you like it. i sometimes put a teaspoon o butter in andspoon butter over the steaks for last 30 seconds or so. mmmmmmmmmm sauer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
