Advice wanted: Venison BBQ
It looks like a perfect autumn day is on its way for us in Cape Town
on Sunday. We're on the cusp between autumn and winter where there are
some magnificent days. The forecast is for a light breeze, patch cloud
and 26C. So I've decided on a braai.
Being on the cusp, we can enjoy the pleasure of the outdoors, but also
the winter treat of Venison. I could ignore the fire and simply make a
casserole, or I could get some venison sausages, but I was wondering
if anybody here had alternative suggestions.
I'm concerned that venison is a bit lean to make good kebabs. I could
try larding each kebab with bacon, which might be a solution, but will
be a bit fiddly unless I use fairly large lumps.
I'm also in half a mind to go for a venison pie, again with no fire.
It might be a bit heavy for the day though.
Would a Weber bbq work for a haunch of, say, Springbok? It'd be really
annoying if it didn't work, but I wonder. The dome keeps the interior
reasonably moist....
