AMAZING VENISON MEATLOAF



Amazing Venison Meatloaf image

This is my own original recipe (I'm a hunter's wife) and an all-time family favorite! A super moist and flavorful meatloaf with a 'kick' using venison and pork sausage. It would also probably be good as a leftover, but none of it has ever made it to the fridge so I don't know. This is exceptional when the meatloaf is formed into patties and grilled outside instead of baked in the oven.

VENISON MEATLOAF



Venison Meatloaf image

Finally, a meatloaf recipe that my whole family enjoys. Mostly venison, but also with some pork sausage to add some fat to avoid a dry meatloaf (venison is such a lean meat). This is a combination of a couple of meatloaf recipes that I played around with.

Provided by jaynine

Categories     Deer

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 loaf, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 1/2 lbs ground venison
1/2 lb spicy pork sausage
3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/3 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 egg
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon seasoned pepper
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 cup ketchup

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Saute the onion in a little butter over medium-low heat. When onion just starts to look done, add the chopped garlic and saute just a few minutes longer (this brings out the flavor of the onion and the garlic instead of adding them raw).
  • Mix together all the ingredients except tomato sauce, basil, and 1/4 cup ketchup.
  • Put into loaf pan and cook at 375 for 50 minutes. Mix together tomato sauce and 1/4 cup ketchup and pour over top of meatloaf, then sprinkle basil over that.
  • Cook an additional 10 minutes. Let sit for 10 minutes after pulling out of oven.
  • Note: feel free to add some steak seasoning in place of or in addition to the seasoned pepper for stronger flavor.

VENISON LOAF (MEATLOAF)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lbs venison
1/3 cup barbecue sauce
1/3 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1 egg
1 egg white
1/8 cup parmesan cheese
2 ounces skim milk

Steps:

  • Add all ingrediente to a big bowl. Mix well together. Shape into a loaf(you can either use a loaf pan or I use a cookie sheet with a sheet of foil on it). Either way will be fine. Since you are using venison there is not much fat juice while cooking. Adding the bbq sauce will make it moist & delicious. Save leftovers for next days lunch, a meatloaf sandwich. Cook 350 degrees for appox. 1 hour. until fully cooked through.

  • Grind the venison yourself: This will give you more control over the texture of the meatloaf.
  • Use a variety of seasonings: This will help to add flavor and depth to the meatloaf.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf: Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough.
  • Cook the meatloaf at a low temperature: This will help to prevent the meatloaf from drying out.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: This will help to keep the meatloaf moist.

Conclusion:

Venison meatloaf with honey-ginger glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal.
