Sweet Bacon-Wrapped mooseTenderloin
The hands-down BEST moose meat recipe in America. Even those who don't like wild game meat will fight for a piece of this.
2-3 servings 1½ hours 40 min prep ( time includes the making of some martinis)
2 lbs moose tenderloins (any game meat are farm animal will work if ya do yer part)
1/2 lb bacon
3 cups brown sugar
2 cups soy sauce
1/4 cup white sugar
Mix brown Sugar and Soy sauce in a bowl into a thick, sticky brown paste.
Put moose Loin in a cooking tray and pour Brown Sugar/Souy Sauce mixture over loin. Roll tenderloin over in mixture, completely covering it.
Let meat marinate in mixture at least 3 hours or overnight in fridge.
Remove loin from tray, and place on a slotted bake sheet with a drip pan or aluminum foil below to catch dripping. Don't throw away marinade.
Wrap a pice of bacon around the very end of the tenderloin, securing the bacon strip with a toothpick.
Repeat this process until the entire loin is wrapped in ten or so bacon "loops." The tenderloin should look like an arm with a bunch of wrist watches on it, the watches being the bacon strips.
Drizzle remaining marinade over deer loin.
Cover loin and bacon strips in a thin coating of white sugar.
Place on center rack in oven and bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes.
Remove from oven and place on cutting board. cut the loin between each strip of bacon so that you have many pieces of meat, each with their own toothpick.
kids and the wimin folk will gobble these up.but I find I have more to eat if after i put the sugar on and I roll it in fresh cracked pepper corns,and even some crushed red chile peppers..sweet and hot..oh yes the grill with wood are charcoal will be great if ya have one.not to close to the fire though..
