As good as your feast sounds (and probably smells) I'd still prefer to see the deer wandering through the woods.

Venison wasn't one of my faves anyway....I liked bambi chili, but anything else just didn't taste good to me.

The mushroom brown gravy makes venison steaks or any dor that matter, taste good. The only problem with that is that venison is too lean to leave drippings for gravy. So good cheater gravy doctored up with the sauteed mushrooms, wine and maybe a secret ingredient. My breakfast has been 3 very large cups of coffee so I need a snack due to the smell making me even hungrier.

It is even better today. The roast just falls off of the bone and the mushroom gravy makes the potatos a meal all on their own.
Time for seconds, but no kimchi.

Gee Geezer, I thought we were doing good to have "Bambi in a Bucket" (aka Bucket O' Bambi) in the freezer. I wish I could eat mushrooms, your dish sounds wonderful. Here I experimented the other night with soaking Bambi meat for 24 hours in water with a bit of salt, drained it and then soaked another 24 hours in buttermilk. Husband made "Bambi Ragoo" and for the first time, I really, really liked the meat. Well, I liked it the time we marinaded it in tons of home made blackberry mead too, but that was cooked on a grill. Since I don't like any "wild" taste in my meat, its been hard to find a way to cook deer that I like, in a kitchen. The water and buttermilk seem to work great. I got the idea from members of the T2K Timebomb forum. A lot of them hunt or have partners who do. I think I may try your crock pot dish, with the treated meat and beef broth, minus mushrooms. I have homemade beef broth (husband uuses large beef bones for knife handles when he's blacksmithing). I'll let you know how it turns out!

Yummm Disaster Cat, who needs to go to bed, its 3am!

I would recommend more rosemary, thyme and garlic on the next one. The homemade broth sounds like a good idea too.
If the deer eat grain all the time, (Like in kentucky/Southern Indiana) they taste a lot less gamy then the deer that live in the pine woods. (More bitterness)
Also if you can harvest a Doe rather than a buck, their meat is tastier.

mmmm.....tastes like zombie...........

they taste a lot less gamy then the deer that live in the pine woods

I eat game for the different taste!

Out where i live the deer eat sagebrush. I wonder how elk would taste in blackberry mead?

I will trade ya some bambi for some elk.... thats my favorite wild game ,

My grandpa used to make a good bambi sausage.  My dad always referred to venison as "high speed beef".  Your dish sounds really good though geezer.  I always find it funny the people who don't have a problem eating beef or pork but think deer hunting is awful.  I've met a lot of cows, pigs and deer in my day and the cows and pigs are lot more intelligent and likeable than deer.  They all roast up pretty nicely though   (I know, I'm bad).

GEEZ?

WHERE ARE YOUUUUUUU?

I miss ya man!

He died. On JU.

It would be nice to see an update, but then again, I suppose I shouldn't complain since I haven't updated in a while either. Regardless, you are missed, Geezer...........

I haven't died just tired, and doing the occaisional poker Blog.
