RECIPE FOR DEER MEAT RECIPES

Steps:

• Take your meat to the local butcher and have it cut thin.
• You can do this yourself by semi-freezing your meat then cut it into 1/4-inch strips.
• Note: meat cut with the grain will be chewy, and against the grain will be tender.
• Combine everything but the meat in a large bowl and stir well.
• Marinate meat over night in the refrigerator, then drain.
• To use a dehydrator place meat on racks, do not overlap, and let dry for 24-36 hours.
• To use an oven, preheat to 150-degrees then place meat on cookie sheets without overlapping for 8-10 hours.
• Turn at least once during drying.
• They are ready when the jerky bends without breaking.
• Let cool, seal tight, and refrigerate for long-term storage.

Steps:

• Toss together the lamb cubes, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder and pepper in a bowl. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour. 
• Heat 2 inches of oil in a Dutch oven to 375 degrees F. Fry the marinated lamb cubes in batches to avoid overcrowding the oil. Cook to medium-rare, about 1 minute. The meat will have a dark brown crust and will be tender to the touch. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate. Skewer the lamb cubes with toothpicks and serve with garlic salt, hot sauce and saltine crackers on the side.
