A couple of deer tenderloin cuts
« on: April 02, 2012, 08:34:05 PM »
Pan seared with red wine/shallot reduction, tater tots, and home-made limeade. Co-worker gave me the meat. I really need to learn how to hunt. I thought kiddo would balk but she gobbled it up!

Is it safe to presume that kiddo was aware that she was eating Bambi's mommy?

It's about time more folks were aware that food does not come from the grocery store without having been killed somewhere.  (Not nevessarily your kiddo, but I still run into those "But if you buy meat at the grocery store no poor animal has to be killed for it" maroons.  Why do they patronize the better butcher shops in town?  :facepalm:

stay safe.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

I told her what it was. Her first couple bites were taken a bit gingerly but then she really got after it.

Those are so good it's hard to cook them wrong.  I took some to a cookout at work.  Charcoal grilled with just a little salt & pepper was all it took to have them asking for more "bambi bits".

Because better shops make better meat?

I have heard this quoted before, but I still haven't been able to convince myself that anyone believes it. Surely, it must be said just to make us twitch.

No. There are people who believe meat is genetically engineered under the packaging plastic.

There were people in San Diego who were absolutely appalled that I had chopped the head off a rooster or shot a deer ...  ;/

No....you should have given the rooster a gun and the deer an axe and let them work it out on their own....
