My son wanted some venison steaks for dinner the other night. I pulled out an old marinade recipe that I had not used in a couple of years. I forgot how good it is. It is actually a duck marinade but works well with all wild game.
I usually let the meat marinade for 24-48 hours. it really makes the meat tender and gives it great flavor.
All Purpose Marinade
2 cups red wine
1/2 cup Balsamic Vinegar
1/2 cup Soy Sauce
1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
1 onion chopped
2-4 garlic cloves chopped
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
If you want to get fancy, try this. Reserve some of the marinade. While the meat is cooking, simmer the marinade and let it reduce by half. It will thicken slightly and intensify the flavor. Drizzle this over the meat.
