How To Prepare Venison

Ten of thousands of Texas deer hunters bring home venison this season and many wives struggle with cooking it. The Fern andez family recipe from the Rio Grande Valley uses slits in a roast stuffed with ham or bacon, seasoned with pepper and salt, seared, roasted with orange juice, and kept moist with citrus juices. Venison steaks are best fried rare in very hot fat, few at a time. The Tucker method roasts in hot fat briefly, then serves hot. Skell roasts venison covered with sour wine for four to five days, then slow roasts with bay leaves and cloves and baste with wine until tender.
