Ok, so that title stinks. I’ll blame the cold.
Anyway, I tried a new recipe the other night. Note..this is the first I have used it, so don’t hold me to anything ok? Normally I have use things a few times before posting. But this was good and I needed a post over here.
I had some venison stew meat. It needed something.
So I went browsing for some steak recipes. And I’ve been dying to make something with rum. I don’t know why. Just wanna. So, that narrowed my search. I just planned to apply it to DEER meat instead of beef. So, here we go…
1/3 cup rum
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
salt and pepper to taste
Mixed that all together then tossed in 2-3 pounds of meat and let it sit in the fridge for 3-4 hours. Then I brought it out, gave it a toss then let it sit out on the counter for another half an hour or so while I prepared the rest of supper.
Melted a tablespoon of butter with a tablespoon or so of olive oil in my heavy bottom stainless steel skillet. Sliced some onions and tossed those in just before the butter browned. Got the onions all nice and translucent then added the meat and cooked just until done.
I had thought about making a sauce from the leftover marinade, but, well, the rice was done and I didn’t want it to wait and I was stinkin’ HUNGRY. It was good as it was. Though I may see what else I can come up with to work on this dish. But there’s an idea for ya anyway. Rum…it’s a good thing.
