Fried Venison Back Strap Meal

It’s White Tail Deer Season in the North Country and it’s time to set the table for another taste treat. As I have been told, the back strap of the deer is the most tender and the tastiest part of the animal. Here’s a great way to prepare this game.

Cut the venison back strap into small steaks.

Prepare a breading of seasoned flour using any of these seasonings:
onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, steak seasoning, salt and pepper.

Remember you can also use bread crumbs or corn meal for breading.
But I prefer flour because you can make a gravy if desired.

Also remember that wild game has its own flavor and it can be tamed by using
onions along side when frying your meat. Some people also use sliced apples.

Using medium heat, melt butter with some oil in your pan.

Roll the steaks in egg and then in the breading.

Place them in the heated pan. Fry them lightly on both sides.

Do not overcook the steaks or they will be tough. Only about 4 minutes on a side.

This is one of the leanest meats you will ever eat. Enjoy!!
