ROAST VENISON

This is a phenomenally delicious way to roast venison, and the method is foolproof, too. Protected by the fatty, crispy prosciutto as it cooks, then served blushing with this outrageously good, silky sauce, it's hard to beat.

Time 3h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 19

SAUCE
1 kg venison bones, (ask your butcher)
1 red onion
1 carrot
1 stick of celery
1 tablespoon plain flour
½ a bottle of Barolo
25 g quality dark chocolate (70%)
25 g unsalted butter
VENISON
1 level tablespoon coffee beans
1 teaspoon white peppercorns
2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
2 cloves of garlic
1 orange
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 x 750 g venison loin fillets, trimmed
14 slices of higher-welfare prosciutto
olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4.
  • Place the venison bones in a large, deep roasting tray. Peel the onion, wash the carrot, then roughly chop with the celery, add to the tray with the flour and toss together.
  • Roast for 1 hour, then use tongs to transfer everything to a big pot. Add enough boiling kettle water to the tray to scrape up the sticky goodness from the base, then pour that into the pot with the wine.
  • Just cover with boiling water, then simmer on a low heat for 2 hours, skimming the surface and topping up the water occasionally, if needed.
  • Carefully remove the bigger bones, then strain the sauce through a coarse sieve into a pan. Simmer on a low heat to the consistency of your liking, then turn the heat off.
  • Get your meat out of the fridge and up to room temperature before you cook it.
  • Crush the coffee beans and peppercorns in a pestle and mortar until fine, pick and pound in the rosemary leaves, then peel and crush in the garlic to make a rough paste.
  • Finely grate in the orange zest and muddle in the balsamic. Cut each venison loin in half to give you four pieces, then rub the paste all over the meat.
  • Divide the prosciutto between two large sheets of greaseproof paper, slightly overlapping the slices.
  • Place two pieces of venison on top of each other on each one, spooning the meat so the thick and thin ends even each other out. Roll up in the prosciutto, tucking in the ends, tie with string at regular intervals to secure the prosciutto in place, then put on a roasting tray.
  • To cook, drizzle the loins with a little oil, then roast in a preheated oven at 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4 for 30 minutes, turning every 10 minutes. Remove and rest for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring the sauce back up to a simmer, snap in the chocolate, add the butter, and whisk until smooth. Leave for a few minutes, then season to perfection.
  • Remove the string from the venison, then carve and serve with the sauce. Delicious with celeriac mash and steamed seasonal greens.

For clarity, my Italian Dressing envelope was 0.7 (19g) ounce size, My Ranch was 1 ounce (28g) size and my Beef Gravy mix was 0.87 (24g) size. These sizes worked perfectly for flavor and were not over-salty.

CROCK POT VENISON ROAST



Crock Pot Venison Roast image

I used to always cut our venison roasts up into cubes and make venison stew until my sister shared this recipe with me! We now have roast once a week. I don't think that you can overcook this. I make French Dips with the leftovers...if there are any! *October 2009--I've recently made a couple of changes to this recipe that I think have made it even better...I started using black coffee instead of water to make a darker, richer gravy. I also now use low sodium Montreal Steak seasoning.

  • Trim any excess fat from the roast, but leave some fat on the roast so that it doesn't dry out during cooking.
  • Use a sharp knife to score the roast all over, about 1 inch deep. This will help the roast to cook evenly.
  • Season the roast generously with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices.
  • Place the roast in a large bowl and cover it with red wine. Let the roast marinate for at least 12 hours, or up to 24 hours.
  • When you are ready to cook the roast, preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Place the roast in a roasting pan and cook it for about 2 hours, or until the roast is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the roast rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

The three-envelope venison roast is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The roast is marinated in red wine and spices, then cooked slowly in the oven until it is tender and flavorful.
