Just to get your mouth watering.

I found a venison tenderloin in my freezer today. Yeah, how did it stay there this long? Anyway we had some fresh corn on the cob so I soaked it for a couple hours and put the venison in a marinade of garlic powder, onion powder, and Dale's Seasoning.

Fired up the grill and I'll tell you what. Those tenderloins were so tender you could cut them with a fork. I am not exaggerating either. Just ask my daughters. That was goooood!

How long till November?

too long Bob, I found the same thing and I had wrapped them in bacon and grilled them and they were fantastic

Sounds like a bottom of the freezer expedition is in order.

What did you soak it in?

[BobT]

For the venison I mixed a marinade of garlic powder, onion powder, and Dale's Seasoning.

The corn I soaked in water to saturate the husks so they wouldn't ignite on the grill.

If you've never grilled corn this way, give it a try. Just submerge the ears in water for about an hour or so and put them on the grill. They'll be done in about 15-20 minutes. The husks will get very dark burned but the corn inside will be just fine. The moisture helps steam the corn and that's partly how it gets done so quick. The biggest problem is that they are hot for removing the husks.

I have cooked corn on camp fires like that and that comes out pretty good but i dont soak it in water

[so haaad]

Yep, soak corn in water like Bob said and it's very tasty.

[BigWadeS]

I do that too, and I will even take it off and put it in a cooler to steam even more and then it isn't so hot to handle either..

Bob- you need to take up BowHunting... My freezer is empty of veni but I hope to change that middle of sept!!!

[BobT]

I bowhunted for a few years. I found that it coincides with too many other options (pheasants, goose, grouse, fall fishing, crop harvest, fall tillage) for me and with kids and such takes too much of my time.

I enjoyed it but found it too difficult to get out regularly.

Wow thanks for the thread. Heading up to vermillion tomorrow and this thread made me go check the freezer. The menu for trip is the result.

Day 2. Breakfast will include Venison Maple Sausage. For dinner we will fill the crockpot with Venison polish sausage ,saurkraut and graden fresh baby reds.

Day 3. Venison Back strap marinated and grilled with some grilled asparagus and mashed baby reds and garlic.
