Elk Shoulder steaks?

[Larry D]

What's the best way to cook em? Smoker or bbq or fry pan. Thanks for any advice.

Larry, I cook a lot of game meat, and I normally just marinate it over night and smoke it just like any other butt, brisket,etc.


I have baked venison roasts in a foil bag with veggies in the oven and they turned out great. Just my opinion.

Hey Redneck cooker, Could you give me a good marinate recipie?

Hi Red, Should i take that as a NO? Surely someone can tell me of a decent marinate for these steaks. Remember i am just a rookie :(

Larry,

See your "Pheasent Post" for a website. I think there may be some information for you to consider.

In 1/2 cup lard, peanut oil or olive oil, saute:

1 medium onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, mashed
1/2 cup carrots, julienned
1/2 cup celery, julienned
1/4 cup bell pepper, chopped fine
12 juniper berries, bruised

Cook slowly until all veggies are tender and remove juniper berries.

Sprinkle the open venison with a mixture of:

1 Tbls. salt
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. ground thyme
1 tsp. ground bay

Lay in the mixture, roll up the roast like a jelly roll and stake in place with bamboo skewers. Sprinkle the remainder on the dry seasoning on the outside and rub the surface with any seasoned oil remaining.

Place on the grill at around 300 degrees and cook until the internal temp reaches 145 degrees - max! Let set for 10 minutes before slicing crosswise.

Thanks Fred, I will give it a go!
