    I like to cook the necks down and make a gravy and serve over rice.

    Wife makes chili, stir fry, seared sirloin then baked till extremely rare, venison stew, venison steak salad, burritos, quesadillas, grilled, pan fried, chicken fried, goulash, and more I can't remember.

    I shoot 8-10 deer a year, and we eat a lot of venison, very little beef.

    A good size doe in Iowa will field dress around 150-160 lbs. That's a lot of good eats!

    And they are not gamey at all, like Western white tails, or the ones from northern Minnesota that don't even make good sausage.

    I spoke to a man a few months back at a car show. He was from Minn. Said he was looking for a good processor to do his deer here in SC. I gave him a number to call. He said the same thing... deer were gamey tasting in Minn. Nothing I have shot here in SC is gamey.

    We bottle a lot of our venison so when we eat I prefer it warmed up and served with fried potatoes and your choice of vegetables.

    Well, no, not when you pen them up and corn feed them, and then open the gate and go out for hunting out the front door.

    Back strap lightly seasoned and dusted with flour fried in a sauce pan with a little olive oil, onions, and peppers and served with gravy made from the pan.
    Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!

    I like to take 1.5" chunks,from anywhere on the deer,flatten them,dust in corn flour mixed with reg. flour and seasonings.Fast fry them in bacon fat till just browned and a bit ping inside.Add beef broth to the pan and make a nice pepper gravy.Eat it with mash taters,rice or sweet taters and some fresh sauteed green beans with spanish onions..U get a little different texture from the different cuts of meat.It's really good.U HAVE TO use fresh ground pepper though.The stuff in the little can is GARBAGE!![^]

    -Any part of it grilled slowly over charcoal...NOT gas

    -Burger, mixed with Salsa wrapped up in soft taco shells, baked with cheese sprinkled over the top. Sour cream and more salsa depending on the person eating it.

    -I LOVE Cheese Burger Hamburger helper....so when no one is looking I cook up a batch of that now and then. [;)][:)][:D]

    I beg to differ on northern MN whitetail. I hunt by Leech lake and the deer there are eating browse for the most part,not corn and they are some of the best tasting deer I have ever had.

    My recipe for tasty deer is simple. I don"t shoot running deer or frightened deer. I wait for the shot and only shoot them once and they don't flood their system with adrenaline or whatever the deer equivalent is.

    I field dress them promptly and hang them in the cold outdoors and then we skin and cut them up ourselves. I'm no butcher so it doesn't come out as nice named cuts but we do a really good job of removing all the tallow and the silvery tissue which is where part of where the gamey taste might come from.

    Then I cook it medium rare. Tasty!

    We use the burger for all the same things we use beef burger for. For me though, the backstrap and tenders only get cooked over some good hardwood coals, usually oak.

    I've heard about cooking a backstrap in a cooler. Put backstrap in sealed bag, fill cooler with 170? water, and put package in and close door for 4 hours. Throw on grill afterwards to char outside.
