RE: Good low fat venison recipes?
 

The deer meat itself is low fat- so just dont add too it as ppl do with beef pork fat, butter ,cheese etc for whatever reason- a meat pasta sauce, meat loaf,stew is only overly fatty if you add to it things other the deer,elk meat etc.

I agree with Knightia.

In relationship to other meats-venison has about 10% of the overall fat content. Between bison and venison you can't get much healthier meat.

How about stir fry?

We use chunks of the ham or backstrap...

Slice the meat very thin ( 1/4" thick). In a small skillet, brown the meat in olive oil (or butter) with finely diced fresh garlic and white onion. Add salt and pepper to taste.

In a wok or a large skillet, heat some olive oil (1/4 cup) and add your vegetables. We use broccoli tips, cauliflower, chopped green onion, mushrooms, bean sprouts, snow peas, white onion, and cubed tofu. Add soy sauce and the venison, diced garlic and onions. Don't cook too long (7 minutes) as the veggies should be crisp.

Low in fat, low in carbs and plenty delicious.

Spagetti,Sloppy Joes,Chili,Venison Barbecue Sandwich,Broiled,Grilled or Pan Fried Steaks(using evoo or conolo oil),Stews,Soups.I make sausage but its alot leaner than the vein cloggin slop you buy in the market. If you can make any of the above and not add pork or beef fat you've got a good Low Fat meal IMO - even the venison sausage in moderation. I eat all of the above and more about 3-4 days a week. That's why I like at least 3-4 deer in the freezer!!

Now you gotto watch the carbs, they can get you too.

I butcher my own deer and thus have complete control over what I end up with.
Venison is very lean.
If you like more of a game flavor, save some of the fat from the deer if you are making sausage or burger.
I will also abut 10-20% pork shoulder, or loin or add beef suet when grinding.
Otherwise, you cannot make a patty and get it to stay together with venison alone.
