What's for dinner???

Lake Fork channel catfish and hand cut fries tonight ! That’s fifty-fifty ketchup and horseradish with a dash of worcestershire for the condiment. (Since Covid messed with my taste buds I prefer that to ketchup.)View attachment 24592
50/50 ketchup and horseradish with a dash of worcestershire sounds good to me!

Brisket and deer camp have become a regular expected menu item. Simple kosher salt/coarse pepper rub and 6hrs on the Reteq at 225. I then wrapped in butcher paper and finished in the oven. I’m amazed at how different briskets of the same size cook differently. This took a couple hrs longer and was done at 190 (most hit perfect tenderness at 200-203). It was outstanding! 2829BAAD-6394-445A-8732-39C1721309DF.jpeg

i order from West Fork. Prime is still $5 per lb.
 
Care to share the recipe? That looks great!
It ain’t hard or I couldn’t do it. 😁 I brown the ground venison in my favorite steak seasoning, add a little black pepper and put in the veggies. Usually chopped onions, baby limas, small potatoes, whole kernel corn, baby carrots cut in half, small can of mushrooms, maybe a little celery. I also put some tomato sauce in and a little water to wash the sauce out of the can. I do drain all the canned veggies, the stew will have enough water from the ingredients. That’s about it !
Don’t forget the cornbread !

Birria taco meat cooked up yesterday. Frying them up for lunch today.
Bighorn sheep shanks, small bighorn round roast, 2 beef short ribs and a good birria taco recipe. Cooked about 8 hours yesterday and shredded. Huge fan of this stuff.
 
Well guys, I finally broke down and bought a pellet smoker. Last weekend I smoked a couple chickens and they turned out pretty good. Today I smoked some baby back ribs and they were awesome ! I used the Holy Gospel seasoning rub from Meat Church in Waxahachie, TX. I watched a couple of YouTube vids and stuck pretty well to them, but varying a little on the sauce. I ain’t one to brag, but those ribs were great ! I use the past tense because they are GONE !IMG_3656.jpegIMG_2010.jpeg

I butterflied backstraps from a medium sized doe at 1" thick and sprinkled both sides liberally with Badia Steak Seasoning Canadian Blend, then stabbed both sides with a kitchen fork and left in fridge under saran wrap to marinate for several days. Preheated the gas grill to 450, did the first side for 4 minutes, flipped them and did the second side until they were 135-138 degrees in the center, then served with fresh Wisconsin cheese curds slightly heated, sweet potatoes baked in butter, and frenched green beans. These venison steaks can hold their own against choice ribeye, although charcoal would have been better...
