More quick cooking tips:
Sprinkle a small amount of salt in the frying
pan to keep fat from splattering when frying
bacon.
Grilling
Don't be in a hurry to put your food on the
grill. If your charcoal hasn't reached the
proper temperature, you will end up with a
burned mess...black on the outside, and raw on
the inside. Wait until your charcoal has turned
white on the outside, and then give yourself an
extra 5 minutes before putting your meat on the
grill. This allows for more even heating of the
coals, and gives you a slower, more desirable
cooking temperature. Check out some great grill
pans for indoor grilling.
Venison Cooking
Useful meat cooking tips:
A way of masking the 'wild' flavor in venison is
to put it in dishes that are normally spicy
(chili con carne), or have spicy sauces (such as
spaghetti). This will allow you to eat a healthy
meat, without the taste of the wild.
Venison Cooking 101
Venison is one of the most low fat, low
cholesterol, healthy meats you can eat. To help
avoid the wild taste, first soak your venison in
a lightly salted water over night. This will
help remove some of the elements that cause the
wild flavor.
Turkey Stuffing
To remove the stuffing from your turkey
easily, prepare your stuffing and place it in a
piece of cheesecloth and then place it into the
turkey cavity to bake. When the turkey is done,
pull firmly on the ends of the cheesecloth to
remove all of your stuffing at once.
Venison Cooking Times
Most experts conclude that you can use the
same cooking times/temps for venison as you do
for beef. Check the Links section for sites that
give cooking times and temps for beef and other
meats.
Coating Chicken
Quick cooking tips:
To coat chicken or turkey, place the seasonings,
crumbs or flour in a plastic bag. Shake a few
pieces at a time.
Cooking Temperature
Do not roast the turkey in a oven
temperature lower than 325° F. Poultry should be
roasted at 325° F. or higher to avoid potential
food safety problems.
Venison Cooking
Venison can be used in place of beef in any
recipe you have. Season it like steaks and grill
it. Braise it like round steak and use it in
Smothered steak, Salisbury Steak, or Stroganoff.
Defrosting Turkeys
If you can't defrost your turkey in the
refrigerator for a few days, keep the turkey in
its original packaging and place in cold water.
Change the water as often as needed to keep it
cold. Allow 30 minutes defrosting time per
pound.
