Deer Camp Stew
You do not have to be at a Deer Camp to enjoy this Deer Camp Stew, but for some reason done over an open fire gives it a better taste. Maybe it’s the surroundings, not the stew. Like all stews this Deer Camp Stew tastes better the second day, if any left. For us when we go moose hunting, it is the starter base and we add more ingredients each day. There really is not much better than coming in from a morning or day of hiking, sitting watching and glassing, then stalking an animal, to a good bowl of warm stew for lunch or supper starter.
INGREDIENTS:
2 pounds venison (cut into 1 inch stew meat)
3 Tbsp canola oil
2 cups chopped celery
1 cup chopped onion
½ cup chopped green pepper
2 cans beef broth
4 cups of water
1 can diced tomatoes, with juice
2 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
3 large carrots, sliced
2 tsp garlic salt
1 tsp season salt
½ tsp ground pepper
½ tsp thyme
½ tsp oregano
½ tsp rosemary
Optional
1 cup thin sliced mushrooms
DIRECTIONS:
1) In a Dutch oven or stock pot, brown meat in oil;
2) Add the celery, onion, mushrooms, carrots and green pepper;
3) Cook for 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender;
4) Stir in the broth, tomatoes, potato, and remaining spices;
5) Bring just to a boil. Reduce heat;
6) Simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour or until meat is tender.
7) Add ingredients as needed to replenish stew
NOTES:
Make sure to add more water or broth each day and keep to the edge of the fire not directly on it.
ADDITIONAL:
This Deer Camp Stew gets so modified towards the end of the hunt. Some days a grouse can be put in for the meat, and steak the next, potatoes are added, one day it may be more soup style and the next a real thick stew depending on who was camp cook the night before.

Wild Game Chilli
A great hearty warming Wild Game Chilli that sticks to the ribs. Serve this Wild Game Chilli with your favourite wild game and watch as it disappears. Of course all chillis and stews taste better the second day after all the spices have a chance to mix and blend into everything.
INGREDIENTS:
2 pounds ground elk, venison, buffalo or moose meat
1 cup course chopped onion
1 cup course chopped celery
1 cup fresh small chopped mushrooms
½ tsp garlic powder
2 cans (141⁄2 ounces each) diced tomatoes, with juice
1 can (28 ounces) pork and beans,
1 Tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp chilli powder
½ tsp dry thyme
½ tsp pepper
3 or 4 drops hot sauce (optional and to your taste for heat)
DIRECTIONS:
1) In a Stock pot or dutch oven, cook meat, onion, celery and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink;
2) Put all remaining ingredients in and stir to mix well;
3) Cover and simmer for 3 hours on lower heat; stir a few times.
NOTES:
Some people like a chunkier chilli so add about 1 pound of bite sized meat and the ground meat. This gives a thicker heartier meat.
ADDITIONAL:
The longer this hearty Wild Game Chili simmers, the better it tastes! It’s a cold weather favourite but can be enjoyed at any time. I have used Elk, Deer and Moose and found all are very good and each had a slightly different flavour.

Marinated Venison Steaks
These Marinated Venison Steaks are so good, it’s one of those recipes where your guests will say, “Wow, if I could make venison taste like this, I’d make it all the time.” The beer and vinegar will make the Marinated Venison Steaks very tender. You want to discard the marinade in the bag because of the blood from the meat. To make your basting sauce a little thicker add some additional BBQ sauce, before using as baste while grilling.
INGREDIENTS:
6 boneless venison steaks (6 to 8 ounces each)
Marinade:
½ cup white vinegar
½ cup ketchup
½ cup beer (your favourite of course)
½ cup BBQ Sauce (Old West Bold)
2 Tbsp canola or olive oil
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
1 ½ tsp ground dry mustard
½ tsp season salt
½ tsp black pepper
½ Tbsp Dry Italian Spices
DIRECTIONS:
1) Place venison in a large zip lock plastic bag.
2) In a bowl, combine the remaining ingredients.
3) Pour half over the venison; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate overnight;
4) Turn and mix marinade over steaks couple of times at least
5) Refrigerate remaining marinade
6)Remove Steaks from and discard marinade
7) On Medium grill cook for 3 – 4 minutes
Turn steak over; baste with reserved marinade.
9) Grill 3 – 4 minutes. Turn and baste this side.
Grill until desired doneness; turning and basting often.
160° for medium or 170° for well-done; on meat thermometer.
NOTES:
Wild game drys out quickly, main reason is overcooking. Pink is right.
ADDITIONAL:
Marinated Venison Steaks uses a great marinade that you can use for other meat, not just venison. I have used this marinade on elk, moose and beef and found it tastes and does the same job on all 3. Works best on Beef Blade and little tougher cuts of meat as the beer and vinegar work very well in tenderising these.

Caramel Apple Dumplings
Easy recipe for a frying pan or skillet Caramel Apple Dumpling. This is a very calorie rich recipe but like the Lays Chip commercial "Bet you can’t eat just one!" Fresh, apples are used in this recipe and I find that if you use apple juice instead of some of the water only use 1 cup as the apple juice in the sauce for the Caramel Apple Dumplings gets a stronger apple taste as it reduces in the sauce.
INGREDIENTS for Caramel Apple Dumplings:
2 tbsp butter or margarine
1 ½ cup brown sugar
1 ½ cup water
1 ½ cup heavy ½ and ½ Creamo
Dumplings:
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ cup milk
2 tbsp melted butter or margarine
2 tsp vanilla
1 ½ cup apple peeled, cored and chopped (small pieces)
DIRECTIONS:
1. In a skillet, heat the unsoftened butter, brown sugar, creamo and water to boiling
2. When low boil reduce heat to simmer.
3. In bowl, mix together all dumpling ingredients. Drop mixture by tbsp into the simmering sauce.
4. Cover skillet tightly and simmer 20 minutes.
5. Do not lift lid.
NOTES:
Do not lift the skillet lid. If you let the steam escape to quickly the Caramel Apple Dumplings get rubbery. For fluffy light dumplings leave the skillet lid on until the 20 minutes are up.
ADDITIONAL:
Serve warm with cream or ice cream, if desired.

Caesar Goose Breast Sandwich
A great easy goose recipe grilled Caesar Goose Breast Sandwich. I used Canada Goose Breast the first time and they tasted great the second time I grilled Snow Goose for the Caeser Goose Breast Sandwich and it also was very good.

INGREDIENTS for Caesar Goose Breast Sandwich:
4 skinless Goose Breasts (good sized Snow or Canada Goose)
½ cup Caesar or creamy caeser salad dressing
¼ tsp dry thyme
½ tsp season salt
sprinkle of garlic pepper for taste

2. Pound the goose breasts one at a time between 2 pieces of plastic wrap until 1/4 inch thick
3. In shallow dish mix the caesar dressing and thyme
4. Sprinkle (season) the goose breasts with seasoning salt and garlic pepper
5. One breast at a time put into caesar dip and coat both sides (save extra to brush on breast as it cooks)
6. When grill is to temperature put breasts on and put grill cover down
7. Cook 6 - 8 minutes (carefull do not over cook or meat will dry out) brush with any left over dressing
8. Just before meat is finished toast kaiser bun by placing cut side down on grill
9. When buns are done take off grill and take inside spread caesar dressing on bottom
10. Put lettuce, tomato and onion on bottom of bun
11. Just as meat is done put a cheese slice on each breast and cook just to start to melt cheese
10. Remove from grill and place one breast on each bottom on top of lettuce
NOTES:
Start from center of the goose breast and pound outward. the plastic keeps mallet or rolling pin from sticking to meat.
