GRILLED VENISON CHOPS

Categories     Sauce     Side     Venison

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 (8-ounce, 1 1/2-inch-thick) venison chops
2 tablespoons canola oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
4 fresh sage leaves, cut into thin strips, plus whole leaves for garnish
12 fresh blackberries, sliced in half

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to high or heat a grill pan over high heat.
  • Brush both sides of the chops with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Put on the grill and grill until golden brown and slightly charred, about 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, flip the chops, and continue cooking until cooked to medium-rare, about 8 minutes longer. Transfer to a platter, tent loosely with foil, and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  • While the venison is resting, melt the butter in a medium sauté pan over medium-low heat. Add the sliced sage leaves and cook, occasionally stirring and turning the leaves, until the edges curl and the butter is dark amber but not black or burned, about 5 minutes. Add the blackberries to the butter and cook for 20 seconds. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Spoon some of the butter onto 4 large plates, top with the veal chops, and spoon some of the blackberries and butter over each chop. Garnish with fresh sage leaves.

GRILLED VENISON CHOPS, STEWED CHESTNUTS AND FRUIT

Categories     main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

12 chestnuts (4 ounces)
1 large (8 ounce) apple, peeled, cored and quartered
2 ounces dried figs
2 ounces dried apricots
3 ounces extra-large pitted prunes
1 dried chili pepper
1/2 cup chicken stock (preferably homemade)
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons ground toasted juniper berries (see note)
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
8 venison chops, cut from the rack, trimmed of all fat (1 pound meat)
2 cups beef stock (preferably homemade) reduced to 3/4 of a cup
1 teaspoon arrowroot dissolved in 1 teaspoon water
1 teaspoon of water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
  • With a sharp paring or razor-tipped knife, cut around each chestnut through the shell in a ring about a third of the way down from the root end. Spread the chestnuts in a pan and bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes. The chestnuts should be cooked and the shell loose enough to peel away easily.
  • Put the peeled chestnuts in a two-quart pot with the apple, figs, apricots, prunes, chili pepper and chicken stock. Bring the liquid to a boil. Cover, lower the heat and cook for about 30 minutes. All the liquid should be absorbed and the fruit soft but still in large pieces. Keep warm.
  • Heat grill or broiler. Combine the ground pepper and juniper in a small bowl. Put the olive oil on a plate. Turn each chop in the oiled plate, then sprinkle an eighth of a teaspoon pepper mixture on each side. Place them on the hot grill or under the broiler. Cook one minute per side for rare.
  • Bring the juice stock to a boil and stir in the dissolved arrowroot. Cook a moment until the sauce thickens. Season it with freshly ground black pepper. Serve two chops per person with some of the sauce and the dried fruits on the side.

GRILLED VENISON BACKSTRAP



Grilled Venison Backstrap image

Tender chunks of venison are marinated twice, and wrapped in thick bacon before being grilled until crispy on the outside. A venison version of Filet Mignon. This is a heavenly use of the best part of a deer. For the BBQ sauce, I prefer hickory flavored.

Time 5h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 pounds venison backstrap, cut into 2-inch chunks
1 quart apple cider
1 ½ pounds thick sliced bacon
2 (12 ounce) bottles barbecue sauce, your choice

Steps:

  • Place chunks of venison into a shallow baking dish, and pour enough apple cider in to cover them. Cover, and refrigerate for 2 hours. Remove, and pat dry. Discard apple cider, and return venison to the dish. Pour barbeque sauce over the chunks, cover, and refrigerate for 2 to 3 more hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. Charcoal is best, but if you must, use gas. Remove meat from the refrigerator, and let stand for 30 minutes, or until no longer chilled. Wrap each chunk of venison in a slice of bacon, and secure with toothpicks.
  • Brush the grill grate with olive oil when hot, and place venison pieces on the grill so they are not touching. The bacon will kick up some flames, so be ready. Grill, turning occasionally, until the bacon becomes slightly burnt, 15 to 20 minutes. The slower, the better. Dig in, and prepare to want more!

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality venison chops: Look for chops that are a deep red color with a fine grain. Avoid chops that are pale or have a coarse grain, as these will be tough and gamey.
  • Marinating the venison: Marinating the venison chops in a flavorful marinade for at least 4 hours or overnight will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
  • Cooking the venison chops: Grill the venison chops over medium heat for 5-7 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F for medium-rare or 160°F for medium.
  • Resting the venison chops: Allow the venison chops to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop.
  • Stewing the chestnuts: To stew the chestnuts, simmer them in a pot of water with a bay leaf and a pinch of salt for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender. You can also roast the chestnuts in the oven at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned.
  • Preparing the fruit: For the fruit compote, you can use any type of fruit that you like. Some good options include apples, pears, berries, and peaches. Simply slice the fruit and cook it in a saucepan with a little bit of sugar and water until it is softened.

Conclusion:

This recipe for grilled venison chops with stewed chestnuts and fruit is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The venison chops are tender and flavorful, the chestnuts are rich and earthy, and the fruit compote adds a touch of sweetness and acidity. This dish is sure to impress your guests and leave them wanting more.
