Grilled Venison Packets Food

GRILLED VENISON STEAKS

Steps:

• Coat the venison backstrap in oil and salt well. Set aside for 30 minutes to 1 hour at room temperature.
• Get your grill hot, clean the grates and lay the venison on the grill. Keep the grill cover open. Let this cook 5 to 7 minutes without moving, depending on how hot your grill is and how thick your venison loin is. You want a good sear, with good grill marks, on that side of the meat. Flip and repeat on the other side.
• Do the finger test to check for doneness. If the venison needs some more time, turn it to sides that have not had direct exposure to the grill and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes, checking all the way. If you are using a barbecue sauce, paint the meat with it and let it caramelize on the meat for a minute or three.
• When the meat has been cooked to your liking, take it off the fire and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes. If you are using a spice rub now is the time to roll the meat in it.

GRILLED VENISON

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients.
• Soak venison steaks at least 48 hours.
• Cook on the grill.

GRILLED VENISON STEAKS

Steps:

• Place venison steaks in cold water for 20 minutes to remove extra blood, changing the water halfway through depending on how bloody the meat is.
• While the steaks are soaking, combine 1/2 cup olive oil, balsamic vinegar, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon, rosemary, parsley, basil, salt, and pepper in a 1-gallon zip-top bag.
• Remove steaks from the water and pat dry. Season both sides with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Place in the zip-top bag, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours to overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill on high heat for 10 minutes and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove steaks from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Cook steaks on the preheated grill for 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 135 to 140 degrees F (57 to 60 degrees C).
• Remove from the grill and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Slice into strips, drizzle with olive oil, and serve.

"GRILLED" VENISON BURGERS

Steps:

• In bowl, mix dry ingredients.
• Add venison and mix well.
• Add liquid ingredients and mix well with a fork, until bread crumbs are barely noticeable.
• On plastic wrap, form into 8 (4 ounce) patties, making them round and very flat-- like a fast-food burger.
• They can be cooked immediately, but I prefer to freeze them first.
• Place them on a large cookie sheet and freeze them several hours.
• Remove from freezer and place waxed paper between each burger as you stack them.
• I stack them in 2 1-quart freezer zip-lock bags.
• Preheat cast iron skillet to very hot.
• Cook frozen burgers until they are slightly charred on one side (about 3-4 minutes) and then turn and cook until the other side is slightly charred and burgers are medium-well.
• Do not overcook.
• Turn burner off and leave burgers in the pan while you put condiments on your hamburger bun.
• If cooking thawed burgers, cook about 2-3 minutes per side.

OUTRAGEOUSLY WONDERFUL MARINATED VENISON STEAKS

Steps:

• Place venison in a large Ziploc bag.
• In a bowl, combine all of the remaining ingredients.
• Pour half over the venison; seal bag and turn to coat.
• Refrigerate overnight.
• Refrigerate remaining marinade.
• Drain and discard marinade from the steaks.
• Broil steaks 3-4 inches from the heat for 4 minutes.
• Turn; baste with reserved marinade.
• Broil 4 minutes longer.
• Alternatively, grill steaks on a gas grill over high heat for 3 1/2 to 4 minutes a side, basting often.
• I prefer to grill venison to medium-rare at most so that it remains tender.
• Serve steaks with more of the reserved marinade.
• YUMMY!

GRILLED VEGETABLE PACKETS

Steps:

• Heat grill. In a large bowl, combine corn, potatoes, carrots, zucchini and onion.l
• In a small bowl, combine all remaining ingredients; mix well.
• Pour butter mixture over veggies; toss to coat. (I have use Olive Oil instead of butter, personal perference)
• Cut 4 (18 x 12") pieces of heavy-duty foil. Place veggies evenly on foil. Wrap each packet using double-fold seals, allowing room for heat expansion.
• When ready to grill, place packets, seam side up, on gas grill over medium heat or charcoal 4 to 6" from coals.
• Cook 25 to 35 minutes or until veggies are tender.
• To serve, open packets carefully to allow steam to escape.
• *I have use the new foil packets from Reynolds wrap and just put all the veggies in there instead of individual packets.
