I’m pretty good in the kitchen
, I’m just tired of the usual. I need to find some more “go to” dishes. Especially for weeknights…
Don't shoot larger deer, soak the meat in an icewater and cider vinegar bath for a couple days, it helps remove the gaminess. Maybe not enough? I love wild game so it's not an issue here. Some people are more sensitive to it. My deer jerky recipe annihilates all. I listened to my neighbor brag about his jerky for two years and he gave me some one day. Bland as can be. "I just dip it in the brine and throw it in the dehyrdrator" LOL you gotta smoke it or it's shit.I’m not a fan of venison. I want to like it, but it’s always “gamey”. I love venison jerky, but never made peace with it any other way. Not sure why…
Tbh I'm not very savvy in the kitchen unless it making bread, spaghetti, or just cooking meat so I'm probably not much help.I’m pretty good in the kitchen, I’m just tired of the usual. I need to find some more “go to” dishes. Especially for weeknights…
I like the Scott Rea project but it's mostly his expertise in preparing specialty meats and stuff. Killer channel. Dude has mad skills.Follow a YT cooking channel.
Those onion skewers look great. I'm a sucker for a good grilled onion.So this is last Monday at my cabin:
Let the skewers soak, Q'd up some shrimp and onion and few mushrooms, + 2 chicken thighs, and dumped everything into a pot of black beans and added some cherry tomatoes, cumin, salt, pepper, other spices, and several table spoons of salsa. You've seen me do this before - I do it all the time. So good.

You'd just want me to send you more. Get in line.Send me some jerky and let me be the judge…![]()
I'd happily share the basics of my recipe with you, it's nothing really that technical tbh I just wing it but you gotta have a smoker and some decent smoking wood. I use live oak cause that's what I have out here.I stand by my request…

I'm guessing you could buy a lean beef roast and make some pretty good smoked jerky out of it using the recipe but I've never tried it so it'd be an experiment. I can't imagine anything heavily marbled or fatty would work very well but I could be wrong about that.I have a smoker. I don’t have venison to smoke…
One of the guys from church has a small cattle ranch but buying half a cow is more dough than I can afford to cough up for beef at once. Storing it all would be another problem. I wish though, cause I wanna say it worked out to about $3 per pound when I ran the numbers. That's cheap.I’ve made jerky several times using beef. Typically using a London Broil roast. It’s delicious, but with beef prices these days, it’s not economical to do so.
