Brady's Meats had some frenched racks of venison from New Zealand, which I grilled yesterday. They came in packs with 4 bones each, divided into two pieces (2 bones each). I seasoned them lightly with black pepper, salt and garlic powder, and then grilled them with indirect heat.
I also modified my roasted vegetable recipe to use carrots. I pre-boiled the potatoes so that they would cook in the same time as the carrots, but not so much that they would soften up and turn to mush when I mixed them with the carrots and seasoning.
Here are the venison racks, just after searing:
The general consensus on the internet for cooking venison is to cook to an internal temperature in the range of 120-130F. This much lower than beef, because the meat is much leaner, so there is much less fat to heat in the cooking process. I was having some trouble with my digital thermometer, so I had to use a bit of gut feeling and poking at the meat to gauge its doneness.
Here is a shot of the whole meal:
The venison turned out excellent. The meat was a deep red colour, and the flavour was very rich. I will definitely be doing this recipe again.
