View Full Version : Venison Steaks
Visiting my BiL in PA and we got a few venison steaks for tomorrow. Anyone have a simple recipe for the grill? Thanks Fellas.
Salt pepper. Coat with olive oil. Don't over cook. Delicious.

10 min ??? only if you're making jerky, or prefer your meat well done. Myself. Knock the horns & hoofs off, throw it on a plate.
3 tablespoons canola oil (http://www.food.com/about/canola-oil-387)
1 tablespoon lemon juice (http://www.food.com/about/lemon-juice-55)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (http://www.food.com/about/worcestershire-sauce-176)
1 tablespoon soy sauce (http://www.food.com/about/soy-sauce-473)
1 -2 teaspoon minced garlic (http://www.food.com/about/garlic-165)
1⁄2 teaspoon ground pepper (http://www.food.com/about/pepper-337)
1 (1 1/2 lb) package venison stea (http://www.food.com/about/venison-313)k
Mix all marinade ingredients together in a small measuring cup.
Place venison steaks in a large zip lock bag.
Pour marinade over steaks and seal bag.
Place bag in a flat casserole dish so that the steaks are in a single layer.
Refrigerate and marinate at least 4 hours, turning every half hour to marinate each side. Depends how much time you have. I've done 1 hr (yops) on thin steaks.
Drain marinade and grill steaks to desired doneness.

More you cook it the worst it will get ......rare, hot grill or pan and a minute per side. You want thin steaks that cook fast

I used your recipe and it turned out great. There were a few people whom never had venison going back for seconds. Cooked rare/med rare and it was as tender as could be. Thanks Man.

How you cook venison steak depends a lot on how thick the meat is cut. The thickness of the cut and how you cook it is as important as where the steak is cut from. Great venison steak can come from the shoulder and hind quarter as well as the backstrap/loin.
Thin cuts, 3/4" or less can be pan fried hot and fast but thicker cuts are better done on the grill slow and on medium heat. If you grill lean venison the same as fatty marbled beef steak it will overcook the outside and leave the inside under cooked.
I like a thicker 1 1/4" to 1 3/4" cut seared crispy outside with an even rare to medium rare doneness all the way through. My method is to wrap a bacon strip around the cut and grill bacon side down to a medium crisp. The bacon slows the cooking of the outer layer of lean venison allowing the steak to cook more evenly without making it tough. The bacon also adds salt and flavor. A little ground peppercorn is good too.
That's how I do elk, deer and pronghorn steaks about twice a week year around. Sometimes we'll use a marinade or do a roast but for flavor you can't beat a rare venison steak wrapped in crispy seared bacon.
