Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Venison Ribs Anyone

I killed a nice buck opening day and he is loaded with fat. Mule deer but my question is, does anyone cook venison ribs of any venison? We always peel the meat off and grind it into hamburger. Fellow hunter told me a guy fixed antelope ribs and they were fantastic. I have some cooking now. Dry rubbed them and let them set overnight. An hour of smoking on the Traeger. Now in the Dutch Oven with lots of liquid for a few hours. Might end up going out for pizza but it's worth a try. Any ideas or recipes?

No. Tried twice and they were horrible both times. They go in the ditch with the rest of the bones around here.

No

I haul that to a ditch

I used to. But I trim them for the sausage grind pile anymore. Little lean deer are better than fat ribs. Don't like to throw them out unless I really make a mess. More likely to use in a one tag year...

Used ta crock pot em with barbecue sauce in a land and a time long ago and far away.

Antlers are where it is at now.


Cici,s pizza buffet and mcdonalds double cheeseburgers with extra pickles and no mustard are waaaaaaay better.....

LOL!!!

Buzzards and coyotes have to eat something.

We never let an ounce of venison go to waste. Ribs get salt and pepper and broiled around here, then we strip them to the bare bone.

I've done them very similar process as yours, only a little liquid though. After smoking for a couple of hours, Dutch oven, sealed with foil then give them another 3-4 hours . They're good if you have a bunch. Cut the racks in 3 pieces. Last batch I did was marinated for 2 days before cooking in Korean Bulgogi marinade, bbq sauce works good too.

I can kill three does a day in my backwards inbred sister fûcking state of Tn

I cut the back straps out and pull out the large muscles in the hind quarters, maybe some off the neck.

the rest is dog meat

They make mighty thin soup, dont they?

i don't even grind that leathery schit. it goes in the bone pile for the critters. life is too short to eat gamey venison.

Nope, never tried them.

If you do eat them, get all the fat off them. Deer fat is nasty!

Yep they sure do.
Almost like schindlers list soup.


Lol!!!

Why did ya leave out all the rest of my post???
Almost like liberal media type of stuff.

Just cant pick and choose man

It aint right....


Hurts my little purple pizz water pumpimg heart.

you can say that again

There's just not enough there for me to cook as ribs. I take an electric knife and quickly strip what little meat there is between the ribs and put it in the grind pile.

This ^^^

It's nasty for fair chase acorn eating whitetails

No sure about the corn fed ones 😄

Tried once, not worth the effort.

And how! I wasted a good bit of time on some once. Like trying to eat paraffin.
