Default Healthy Grillin'

Hi everyone, I just got a report from the Dr that I need to lower my cholesterol. Fortunately venison is a high-protein low-cholesterol meat so I don't have to give it up. I have a doe in the freezer but I'm just not sure the best way to marinade now that I have to be careful. I know garlic is good for my cholesterol but any other suggestions or things you've learned? Anyone else going through this?

I wouldnt worry about the auctual marinade, you dont auctually eat that much of it. Itry to just stay away from worchestire sauce, butter, and olive and vegetable oil.

Beer, coke, and almost any spice can be added without cholesterol risk increasing. A little marinade wont hurt your meat for you, deer is one of the healthiest meats out there.

Just sprinkle a little garlic powder on and let set overnight.

If your that set on a marinade you can get bottled Italian dressing, I think the fat free stuff is made from water not oil. Also canola and safflowewr oil isn't that bad for you. Stay away from vegtable oil. corn oil is a littlebetter than veg. oil but still not healthy.

I take Zocor every day for now, so I have to watch mine too.
If you don't already have one get an injector, you can concoct your own marinades that don't contain fat or cholesterol containing ingredients very easily, and no marinating method gets the flavor closer to the middle of the meat than injection. It also helps keep the meat from drying out while cooking.
