I'm still eating turkey...two days after.
Soups are easy..chunk up the meat and toss it into sauted onions, celery and some rice. Add spices (paprika works). A chopped carrot and the left over gravy works too. Modify with whatever you have lurking in the fridge. Now, here's how I like my turkey sandwich... Toast some white bread. A nice keiser roll will be ok too. Slather the warm bread with plenty of mayo, cranberry sauce on the other side. Place a few nice white meat pieces on the bottom one, a few crisp pieces of lettuce on top, salt and pepper. Dill pickle on the side. YUM! Lucky those Pilgrims didn't know about ostriches, I'd be eating "left overs" til April.

Well, now that the turkey is gone (I'm giving thanks), there's a very big deer that needs proper preparation. This recipe works for beef too.
I never had elk or moose, but my guess is that it would work for those critters as well. Roast Venison 4 lb To 5 venison roast 6 sl To 8 bacon 1 Sprig rosemary 1 c Water; stock or wine 1/4 ts Ginger 1/2 ts Cinnamon 2 Or 3 cloves 1 1/2 ts Sugar 2 tb Bread crumbs 1 ts Vinegar 2 tb Butter Wrap the bacon all around the roast. Put the rosemary in a heavy roasting pan and place the roast on top of it. Mix together the liquid, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and sugar, pour around roast. Season with salt and pepper. Roast in a moderate 350-375° oven for 2-3 hours. When done, remove from pan to serving platter; strain off gravy into a saucepan. Over low heat, cook juices with bread crumbs until boiling. Then add vinegar and butter; pour over roast. Serve with cranberry jelly.

That's too funny! Also, it's good to see that someone is reading my babble. Do you have a recipe to add? Anything will do, a favorite bar-b-que sauce, dessert, heck...a soup would work. Please add yours. DTS

Toppings are in the "experimentation" stage. Butterscotch sauce? Bananas? Peanut butter? So many possibles. Talk about tough decisions!

Here's one that you'll be doing again and again...the very best way to cook a chicken.
Beer Can Chicken Get a whole fryer and a six pack or twelve (cans). Twelve helps to pass the time while the oven is doing its "thing". Set the oven to 350 Pop the top on one of the brewskies and drink half. Take the bird and sit it on the 1/2 can like it's sitting on a toilet. Yup, shove the can right up its butt. Trust me, the clucker won't complain. Pop another top on a brewskie so you can continue to prep while the oven heats up. Rub the bird with olive oil (tenderly). It will like it, especially if you're gentle on the thighs. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder and cajun seasoning. By now the oven is ready for the chicken that's sitting on the can, so put the bird in a shallow pan and pop it in. Crack another brewskie or two while you wait. It should take about an hour and twenty minutes. But, if you're not in a hurry, turn the oven down to 300 after the first 45 minutes. It will give you time to finish the six pack. Hey, I told you to get a twelve, right? Anyway, when the bird looks golden and "happy", and you're feeling about the same way, it's time to take it out. Let it rest for about ten minutes. You can too. Cooking is hard work. Treat yourself with another brewskie (if you bought the 12). Carve it up. Serve with rice and a veg or two. Peas and carrots work fine. Seriously, this is a great way to make chicken happy. Try it and you will be too.
