marinating venison

[walleye wisher]

Does anyone have a simple recipe for marinating Venison steaks? I tried just soaking them in teryaki sauce, but they are a little to rich for the wife. I like them that way, but she thinks they are a little to bitter.

Hi WW

I got this one originally for pork chops, tried on steaks and liked it...why not adapt for venison? Let me know if you like it.

MIKE DITKA'S OFFICIAL TAILGATER'S PORK CHOPS
8 pork chops, 1 inch thick
1 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup dijon-style mustard
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 cups orange juice
2-3 tablespoons chopped fresh garlic
1/2 cup honey

1. In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients; whisk together,with a whisk.
2. Pour over pork chops.
3. Marinate in the fridge for 12-24 hours (24 hours is best).
4. Remove the pork from marinade; discard the marinade.
5. Season pork with salt and pepper.
6. Grill for 8-10 minutes, turning once.

I have a simple one that I use quite often. I don't use measurements so you'll just have to wing it.

I first season the steaks. Use whatever you like i.e. season salt, garlic salt.

Then I tenderize them a little. poking them with a fork works well.

Then I put them into a tupperware type container.

Pour enough worchester sauce to coat and have some excess at the bottom the the dish.

add some type of oil. i.e. vegtable, canola

chopped onion and/or garlic

Refridgerate for as long as you can. Shaking or turning them a couple of times.

That's about it. Sometimes I add a little liquid smoke also.

1/3 worchestire, 1/3 soy sauce,1/3 Italian dressing. Just seal in a zip lock for awile. Good to go. Simple and delicious.

Thanks everyone! I'll give these a try and let you know how her taste buds react.

Even straight Italian dressing is good. Works good when you have a big package of steaks out, first night just have them straight off the grill, the next night have them marinated in Italian dressing and then on the grill.

Here's a great and simple recipe.

50/50 --- Soy Sauce/Virgin Olive Oil

mix the Soy Sauce together with the Olive Oil in a bowl. Sprinkle Montreal Steak Seasoning, (crucial part of recipe), on the steaks. With a brush, coat the steaks with the Olive Oil and Soy sauce mixture. Flip the steaks over, and sprinkle some more of the Montreal Steak Seasoning on them. Leave them soaking in the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let them sit in the frig over night. The next day you are ready to go. REMEMBER: Don't overcook your venision. It's o.k. to leave venision rare to medium rare. INCREDIBLE!!! All of this talk about venision, mmmmmm, I think I'm going to take some out of the freezer tonight, for this weekend.
