Saturday's Dinner (posted a little late)

This past Saturday I went to my brother's rod & gun club for one of their Game Dinners. All the dishes are prepared by members of the club using ingredients that they caught/killed/gathered themselves. These dinners are loads of fun and the food is great. Here's the menu:





My favorites were the Venison Ravioli (though I would consider them Pierogies) and the Pheasant Cannelloni.

I brought a growler of an E.F. clone and a growler of my Bourbon Oaked RIS to share with my table. All of it was gone by the fifth course.

Unfortunately I didn't win any of the raffle prizes.

This is what was served at another one of these dinners a couple years ago.

wow, that sounds delicious. time to make supper i think....

The concept of venison carpaccio scares me, but I know I'd still have to try it.

It was seared though, not raw like traditional carpaccio.

Yeah, I was alittle apprehensive about the carpaccio at first but it turned out to be more like extremely rare London Broil, very tasty.

Even if it's seared, I'd be apprehensive of any wild game undercooked. It's not just e coli you have to worry about. I'd have still tried it though. Can't resist a gustatory adventure, even if I end up with worms.

If you pass a 30' tapeworm and don't post pictures of it, I'll start a petition to have you removed from HBT. :fro:
