how do you like yours cooked?
Myself I love the Jerky.
I also cut steaks into 2x2 pieces,marrinate them ina bag with Italian dressing over night.Next day,take pieces and put 1 Jalapeno pepper in the middle.roll up then wrap bacon around it,secure it with a toothpick(soak them in water so they dont burn)
Cook ON THE GRILL! till done.
Cooking these in the oven just wasn't the same.
Its awesome,people have no clue their eating deermeat till you tell them.

Buck Ruffie

two pounds of deer burger
three eggs
three/four tbsp of worcestershire sauce
1/2 jar of beef bouillon pellets (the small pieces not cubes)
1/2 small onion chopped finely
One packet dry onion soup mix
Oats
Family sized can Cream of Mushroom Soup
Large Jar Brown Gravy

Pour gravy and cream of mushroom soup into a mixing bowl and stir until well mixed. Take about 1/2 cup and cover the bottom of a large baking dish and then sit the rest to the side. In another mixing bowl, take eggs, worcestershire sauce, bouillon, dry soup mix and onion and mix together. Be sure to dissolve the bouillon in the liquid of this mixture. Stir oats into mixture. Add enough oats that the mixture coats the oats. Add only enough oats so the mixture is soggy, not too dry. Probably close to two cups of dry oats will do. Add in the ground deer to the oat mixture and mash together with hands like making a meat loaf. Make the final mixture into patties about the size of big hamburgers. Arrange them in a baking dish. (It is ok to stack them if needed) . Pour the gravy mixture over the patties in the baking dish to cover like making baked steak and gravy. Bake at 375 for one hour.

Serve with mashed potatoes and all the fixins.

My grandparents taught us how to cut it up when we were kids and have just always saved the expense of sending it and doing it ourselves. I will say we should invest ni a new grinder though to make the burger out of, the old one is getting harder to crank or am just getting to old to do it.

I have that cabela kit that comes with a grinder and jerkey shooter equipment. When I grind it up and put it through the jerky shooter, it doesnt have that much flavor to it, anyone know what I could be doing wrong. When I cut the strips myself it does just fine.

When you do the ground Jerky you need to mix the flavoring in with the meat not just put it on the outside of it. Kind of mix it up like you would a meatloaf.

yeah, I do that too. i grind it up and mix it and then let it set in the refigerator for a day and then put it throught the shooter. Is there a better recipe to do it that way or anything :?:

what type of flavor are you looking for? we have a lot of different recipes for Jerky.

Heres one recipe we use
1lb ground steak or ground deer
2 tsp salt or tenderizer if available
2 tsp wild game seasoning
2 tsp of liquid smoke
1 tsp black peppercorn (we put it in a cloth and smash it with a hammer
so there are still some small chunks and some powder)
1/2 tsp garlic powder


This is hard to type out cause I am on who likes to just pour in the ingredients and hope for the best. but it always works out :lol: this is one of Grandmas old recipies, Good news is hers always worked out great.

We also have some for BBG flavored, terriaki (sp) and some others to, just let me know the flavor you are looking for. I might have it.
