    Grilled fallow deer

    Hi all,

    just found a great online resource (in Sweden) for ordering a box of game meat. It is delivered to your door, and contains an assortment of cuts, from roe deer, fallow deer, red deer, wild boar. Not all of them at the same time, but still a good mix.

    I cooked some today. Real nice simple cook, just put them on my BGE on indirect heat, then seared them. I bought a cast iron pan off a flea market that I tried for the first time. I bought it specifically to use on the grill. Works wonders of course. It is pitch black outside, so no outdoor pics this time.

    Anywho, I cooked what I believe is called boneless beef outside from a fallow deer. It is the outside thigh, anyway. So incredibly tender and full of flavor. I've cooked plenty of game meat before, so this was easy. I'm astounded by the rich flavors every time though. I cannot recommend this highly enough.


    The raw meat (I cut it in two, as there was a natural separation of the muscles)

    It took less than an hour to cook. Indirect heat at around 230° F. When the meat hit 122° F (50° C) I seared them. I took them at 131° F (55° C). They rested for 10 minutes before slicing. I served the meat with a red wine reduction, sweet potato mash and some veggies (mushrooms and diced zucchini).

    Man, that red wine sauce is killer! I try to come up with something different every now and then, but there's no point really, as this sauce is so hard to beat. If it ain't broken, don't fix it

      Spinaker - thanks for inspiring me to get not only a great headlight (love it, especially its ability to soften the light accordingly), but also a cast iron pan for my grill. Both cheap (relatively speaking) tools, but great to have.

        Very welcome my friend! Would you be able to post a picture of the pan, when you get a chance? I would love to see what you have over there! Great write up.

            Apparently, when you do a pitcast with BBQCentralShow, you get to withdraw some money from the Bank of Meathead to go where ever you want for BBQ. That's what I heard.

            Yep, I'm going to Sweden for some BBQ with Henrik and I'm getting an Engelbrecht Braten 1000. So, when do I get to do my next pitcast? I've got a couple other things I want in the backyard LOL

          I had a big Fallow buck run in front of my car years ago near the location I hunt on public land. That dude is fair game and would yield LOTS of meat. Never saw him in the woods.

            I wouldn't eat one that 'met' with my car, but except for that they yield a lot more than roe deer, and the flavor is awesome.

            Henrik, if it hits the front of the vehicle it is automatically "grilled" venison

          Henrik That is a beautiful plate there! I had to look up fallow deer, btw.

            Thanks! I did a google translate, as we have three types of deer (listed in order of size, from smallest to largest):
            Roe deer
            Fallow deer
            Red deer

            The first two are kind of similar, but the red deer has a flavor of its own.

              That looks like it was done very well (NOT well done ) ! Congrats on a great cook!
