Deer? Yes, Dear

A lot of the free meat in our freezer is deer meat.  Being from the country, meat like deer, quail, squirrel, and rabbit is a little more acceptable for my palate than it is for others.  I happen to love eating all of those things, and thankfully, my husband does as well. 

Deer steak is what was on the menu for supper one night.  If you don't like, or have this, you can easily use some round steak, or other type of beef.


Take the thawed meat and rub it with some salt, pepper,and other seasonings of choice.  I used a steak rub that was delicious!  After the meat has been rubbed, add a little bit of water, just to cover the bottom of the pan (so the meat doesn't dry out), and cover with a piece of foil.  Place it in the oven at 350.  Each meat will cook for a different amount of time depending on size, thickness, etc...  Cook all the way through. 


A quick and delicious dish to enjoy with the meat is a broccoli casserole.  Take some frozen broccoli and pour into a bowl (one that will go into the microwave and the oven).  Thaw out the broccoli in the microwave.  When this is done, into the bowl pour a box of Stove-top stuffing.  Add a can of cream of mushroom soup and half a cup of shredded cheddar cheese, and mix everything together. Stick the casserole into the oven and cook until it is hot all the way through.  The casserole will start to get a little crispy on top.  Enjoy!
