venison chops

saw a few recipes on the hunting side. anyone else have some to share that venture this side more then the other? i thought i would see more recipes over there.

thanks

By chops you mean backstraps? Number one tip is to not overcook them. Salt and pepper, saute in butter with chopped garlic.

YES I THOUGHT THAT WAS WHAT CHOPS ALWAYS WERE. AND THAT IS HOW I MAKE THEM NOW. was just looking for other ways is all. sorry for caps work in them and to lazy to change. lol

Save the fancy stuff for lesser cuts of meat. Salt, pepper, olive oil, and screaming hot charcoal or broiler. 2-3 minutes per side. Cook no more than medium. Good meat always speaks for itself.

Another alternative to the above great recipes is salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce. Put in a bag with the sauce for 10 minutes or longer before cooking. Do not overcook!

Or leave out the salt and pepper and just cook in butter. Got to watch the temps with butter. 1.5 to 2 minutes each side depending on thickness. Good meat doesnt need a lot of seasoning. The wife likes to mix up some mushrooms with hers.

If Im not exactly sure about the pan temp Ill cook one or two first and check how they come out. Then adjust temp or cooking time on the others. My son has caught on at our house not to come grab the 1st meat out of the pan as it might not be just right. The best is yet to come.

Fry in butter (with or without flour), Lawrey’s for seasoning and add a little minced garlic. I use the stuff pre-minced in a jar with oil. Some people are squimish if it is pink inside, so you mey need to cook just beyond, but I try not to.

And as mentioned keep it simple.

Wish I still had some left over from last year. They don’t last long enough.

My deer came from farm country! WMA surrounded by corn. No need for special recipe put them on the grill for about 3 -4 minutes a side and talk about rare/medium! Melt in the mouth! Mom said “it didn’t even taste like deer.”

The grill is the only way to cook these. I don’t butterfly mine just put the whole slab on the grill.
