WILD GAME RECIPES
By Ruth Albrecht
We all have that favorite wild game recipe that we just love to make and eat! Whether it might be a stew, chili, sausage, jerky etc., here is your chance to share and see that recipe featured in our magazine. In each issue we will feature one proven and tested wild game recipe. So, send me your recipe with a little history/story about it to 6906soarhellenbrand@gmail.com.
With so many avid bowhunters around, who does not like a good roast? This recipe is simple enough and you only need one pan. I acquired this family favorite from my mother-in-law over 40 years ago and it was always one of her favorites too. So, here is how I make my favorite venison roast…
Featured Recipe
Smoked Wild Turkey Breast
Mike Brust
Makes enough brine for two rolled turkey breasts sides (1 turkey)
Ingredients:
3 cups (24 oz) cold water (can include ice cubes)
1 ½ cups (12 oz) Apple juice
1 ½ cups (12 oz) Orange juice
¾ cup Kosher salt
¼ cup Brown sugar (light or dark)
4 Whole cloves
1 ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
2 boneless fileted turkey breast sides
Prepare brine:
Pour apple & orange juice into a large pot over medium heat. Add salt, brown sugar, cloves & nutmeg. Simmer for 15 min., until salt and sugar are completely dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Add cold water. (Add ice cubes to the water or refrigerate to make sure the brine is cold).
Roll & tie each breast filet with cotton butchers string. (See YouTube: How to tie a roast with a string). Holding with skewers while tying is helpful. Trim off as much membrane and muscle sinew as possible first.
Place each boneless rolled turkey breast in a 1-gallon Zip-Lock bag. Then pour ½ the brine into each bag. Remove as much air as possible then seal Zip-Lock bags.
Place in refrigerator overnight or up to 24 hours. (Rotate a couple times if you can.)
Remove from brine and thoroughly rinse all brine from meat under cold water faucet.
Rolled, tied breast is now ready to smoke. You can rub outside with a dry rub if you wish, but not necessary.
Smoke:
Smoke with Apple and/or Cherry wood
Smoke at 220 degrees until interior meat temperature reaches 163 degrees. (about 2 hrs. but watch carefully)
Remove and rest for 20 min.
Serve hot or slice for sandwiches. Enjoy!
