Here is some super-easy "mock roast beef". Brown a venison roast in a hot frying pan with some oil. Then put in a baking dish and put some beef tallow over the top along with some fresh crushed garlic and a tablespoon or two of water, cover and bake at 300 - this will tame any deer meat. Make sure the tallow is fresh food grade (and not for birds) - if you ask a butcher they will usually save you some for little or no cost. This is great out of the oven or slice it up cold and make sandwiches.
