I have been trying new recipes with deer steaks, but no more! I have now found the perfect recipe for those deer steaks.
Take 8 deer steaks (Actually any kind of thin lean steak would work.)
seaon them well with Emeril's Essence and Cavenders' Greek Seasoning.
Put them in a crock pot. (I usually put do this when they are frozen or not all the way thawed out.) Mainly b/c I forget to get them out in time to thaw first.
Anyway
Add 1 packet McCormicks' Peppercorn gravy for steak and 1 packet of Lipton Beefy Onion Soup Mix.
Combine these 2 packets with 1 1/2 cups of water.
Cook on low about 8-7 hours. This steak was so delicious. so tender, so tasty. I served it over Uncle Ben's Wild and Long grain rice. (The kind you microwave for 90 seconds.) Dh loves rice.
I made mashed potatoes for ds and I. The gravy had a perfect texture. We poured the gravy over the potaoes and dh poured his over the rice.
It was so easy. After a busy day out all I had to do was nuke some rice and whip up some mashed potaoes and a delicious supper was ready and waiting.
Dh is still ranting about how much he loved it.
Next time I will just add some dinner rolls.
Just a couple other notes. Venison is much cheaper than beef. Much leaner than beef and has no added hormones etc. We have a local taxidermist, that we can get it from for the butchering fee. Since venison cannot be sold. You pay for processing the meat. I usually have it ground into hamburger, steaks and loin cuts. Not sure how many pounds we get, but it usually lasts us about 6 months and we only pay $50.00 for it. This last batch was actually 2 small deer.
