Venison Bites Food

VENISON FINGERS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in skillet or deep fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a bowl, mix the flour, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning. Dip venison strips in egg, then in the flour mixture to evenly coat.
• Fry coated venison strips in the hot oil until golden brown.
• Melt the brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, and mix in the mustard. Serve as a dipping sauce with venison strips.

VENISON TENDERLOIN BITES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack at about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Warm the olive oil and garlic in a small saucepan over low heat for 5 minutes to infuse the flavor of the garlic into the olive oil. Place the bread crumbs into a mixing bowl, and pour the oil mixture overtop. Stir the parsley, and Parmesan cheese into the bread crumb mixture until evenly blended. Press the venison cubes into the bread crumb mixture to coat, and place onto the prepared baking sheet. Make sure the venison pieces are not touching.
• Broil in the oven until the bread crumbs are golden, and the venison has turned from red to pink in the center, or to your desired degree of doneness, about 6 minutes. Turn the cubes occasionally as they cook.
• Divide the arugula onto 4 dinner plates, and top with the broiled venison. Squeeze a quarter of a lemon over each plate to serve.

BACON WRAPPED VENISON BITES

Steps:

• In a bowl large enough to hold the venision, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and balsamic vinegar. Add the crushed garlic, mustard, and black pepper. Set aside.
• Rinse the venison backstrap and pat dry. Cut evenly into 1 inch sized pieces.
• Place the venison chunks into the prepared marinade. Toss with your hands to coat all pieces. Cover and refrigerate for 1 - 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. If your oven runs "cool", adjust to 475.
• Drain the marinade from the venison completely. Pat with paper towels to remove excess marinade.
• Wrap each piece of venison with half a strip of thick cut bacon. Wrap tightly, securing with a toothpick.
• Arrange the bacon wrapped bites seam side down onto a broiler pan or wire rack over a rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake for 10 - 12 minutes at 450. Remove from the oven and turn on the broiler.
• Stir together the barbecue sauce and water to a thin consistency. Using a brush, baste the bacon wrapped venison. Broil and baste the bites, turning FREQUENTLY, until the bacon is browned.

GRILLED VENISON BITES (DEER BALLS) (CAJUN)

Steps:

• Cut venison into bite size bits.
• Cut bacon into 3-4 inch pieces. You may even want to cut the bacon strips in half, length-wise first, depending on the width of the bacon.
• Wrap each chunk of meat with a piece of bacon, using a tooth pick to hold in place.
• Place wrapped venison in a plastic bag and cover with dressing. Marinate over night.
• Place marinated deer balls on plate and sprinkle with seasoning.
• Grill until bacon is crisp, turning often. I found the easiest way is to use a fish basket, that way you can turn them all over at once. Another way is to use a skewer. No mater what method you use, watch for flare ups, since the oil in the Italian dressing will cause quite a blaze if you don't keep an eye on it. I walked away one time to get a beer and when I came back my balls were burnt to a crisp.
