2023 Xmas Luncheon

[6pt-Sika]

The Xmas luncheon at the shop will be tommorrow 12/19/23 . And I’ve just about finished the main courses . Made a double batch of pheasant/partridge/venison sausage gumbo . And also almost done with the Venison stew this’ll be the third year for the venison stew !

Sounds tasty, I would like to be there for that feast. I would like to hear about the gumbo and how you have prepared it. I have a soft spot for deer stew, as a matter of fact I vacuum sealed six packs of stew meat yesterday. We cut our stew meat up into small cubes and run it through the cuber while we are making steaks. Talk about melting in your mouth, yummy. Growing up at home as a young boy deer stew was on the menu on a regular basis. There were times Mom would take the stew meat, flour it and fry it with nothing else. I could eat those morsels forever, they were so good. Even back then Mom would make me beat the living heck out of the stew meat with a tenderizing hammer. Being the youngest had it's downsides at times

I would say we might have a stew at the Southern next year but a bit hot for that usually . But I may have my venison sloppy Joe type stuff refined in time

In the spirit of keeping it simple, my dinner last evening cobsisted of tender deer liver from my young November buck sauteed in bacon fat (from my morning’s breakfast of 4 eggs over easy and 2/3 lb. of thick-sliced bacon) and sprinkled with Camp Mix done to medium- rare, joined by a healthy portion of steamed baby spinsch and finished with 1/3 lb. of leftover bacon, again from my breakfast. The other thing that wasn’t left over from breakfast was the cold bottle of Guinness to wash it down.
