**DO YOU REALLY, REALLY like meat?

Then you would love what I just ate. I cleaned an 8 point buck tonight. While I was quartering it up, I put some hickory in the pit on my front patio. While the wood was making coals, I took a couple of tenderloins and marinated them in some fajita seasoning.

I took a tenderizing cleaver and worked it over real good, then put them in a bowl of marinate and let it set for an hour or so. Meanwhile I finished butchering the deer and put thr rest in the box.

By then the coals were ready, no flame, but plenty of heat! I grilled both sides of the deer meat for about six or eight minutes then…BAM! A little salt and pepper, a margarita and some lime tostitos…the meat was between rare and medium rare, PERFECT…it don’t get no better than this! Afterwards, a good cigar and another margarita, sitting on my deck with a nice fire nearby watching the Christmas lights twinkle in the front yard.

Damn, ain’t life great!!.. **

What???

You don’t Age the Bambi in Texas?

As a kid I was taught that venison wasn’t fit to eat unless you hung it in the garage until it started to mold. Then you cut off the moldy bits, butcher and freeze.

**Anyone else like moose?

Hubby works with a guy who hunts in Canada every year and brings home a big load of moose meat. (His family no longer buys beef . . . they have a deep freeze and have a year’s worth of meat from each moose.) He gave us a couple of steaks. Mmmmm . . . must be what cow is supposed to taste like, minus the hormones, genetically-engineered grain and filthy feed lots. **

Never tried moose. Hmm. Wonder where I can get it around Chicago?

Meeeeeeeaaaaaaat. Meat.

Meat. Meat. Meat. Meat. Meat. Meat. Meat. Meat. Meat.
Yum. Meat.

I’ll never forget: the sign at the Ponderosa said “20 oz. Steak for 2”. Dad and I thought that meant 20 oz. split between the two of us, and 10 oz. would be just about right.

When we got the odd look from the cashier, we wondered.

When we saw the waiter bringing out two plates, again with an odd look, we wondered.

When we saw that the two plates held 20 oz. of steak each, we boggled! You could barely see the plate, there was so much steak.

Urp.
