Lorihadams-- hi guys...been busy!

[2dream]

it was perfect. Then my husband put his portion in the MICROWAVE

Oh the humanity.

Will someone come slap him please?

In the microwave. Did he lose his mind momentarily or what?

And tell your DH this is for him

 

[FarmerChick]

Oh, and we got the tree and house lights put up after a dinner of mashed sweet potatoes, peas, and a deer tenderloin with a thyme mushroom balsamic vinegar sauce...cooked to medium-medium rare in the middle...it was perfect. Then my husband put his portion in the MICROWAVE

Oh the humanity.

Will someone come slap him please?

microwave? what the ???

that thyme mush bal vin sauce sounds absolutely delish. We have been eating on tenderloin this past week also. YUMMO

 

[lorihadams]

I know, really?

 

[savingdogs]

Well my Hubby puts hot sauce on everything. Everything! No point in having any flavor, because when he is done it will just taste hot!

 

[lorihadams]

Oh yeah, my hubby does that with salt.....I soooooo see a heart attack in his distant future....

 

[FarmerDenise]

My SO puts salt and pepper on everything, prior to tasting it and puts it in the microwave,

I wouldlove to make some venison something or other, but it is now buried on the bottom of the freezer

 

[Wifezilla]

Tenderloin...in the MICROWAVE?!?!?!


I would only allow him cheap supermarket ground beef after something like that!

 

[noobiechickenlady]

Say it ain't so!! Aggravates me when people don't even try something before they try to change it... At least TASTE it first!
My beastie puts cajun seasoning on almost everything before he tastes it. I've given up smacking him, I just hid the cajun seasoning

 

[BarredBuff]

I probably would have wrestled him for the plate. Its sound very tasty, Lori!

I got a doe last night!!!

I sat in a sleet storm for 3 hours to get it

I gotta give props to the neighbors dogs for helping me on this one! I had NINE does come out of the woods across the other side of the creek. Couldn't have shot a one of them if I wanted to. They worked their way down the creek away from me and just wouldn't cross it and come into the field (our property line is the creek--they were on the other side).

After about a half hour I hear the dogs barking from across the way and wham, here they come!!! They got across the field to about 40-50 yards to my right. I had to stand up to shoot, I managed to get 2 of them to stop long enough to get my cross hairs on one. She didn't go far but I wasn't happy with the shot...the angle I had to shoot her at put the bullet through part of her lung and down and back through the bottom of her stomach It came out way too low...she was standing slightly facing me and I shot behind her shoulder and cause I had to shoot down so much it just really made a mess when we opened her up.

Called the calvary--Chad and the kids--and they brought the truck and we got to have an impromptu dissection lesson with the kids. On a sad note, she was pregnant. Probably a couple months along....the fetus was only about 3 inches long but you could already see the rib bones and the beginnings of hooves. That's the bad thing about taking a doe this late in the season, they stand a good chance of being pregnant. This is the first one we have ever seen that had a very visable fetus.

Got her field dressed, the neighbors dogs were very happy about that...they were lurking in the edge of the field the whole time. Got her home and dressed her, cut the skull cap off so my 5 yr old could see the brain....that anatomy lesson continued...he wanted to see the bones too. He's getting a microscope for xmas from grandma.

Ate dinner....deer tacos and then finished the processing. I ended up with 12 1-2 lb bags of ground meat and 4 beautiful bags of tenderloins (hers were big enough we cut them in half)
