I had some of the best venison while i am in Germany. I have become pretty close friends with a german carpenter named Florian. His family took two roebuck this weekend. After hanging them to age for a couple days they invited me over for the feast. They grilled the back straps which were pretty ordinary. This region of germany uses a long metal rod with a small curled hook on the end to turn and handle meat.
The rest of the two roebuck had the meat stripped from the bone and chopped up. They cooked the chopped venison in a large cast iron kettle over a fire. They mixed in minced onion then lightly seasoned the kettle with caraway, coriander seed, ground mustard, fennel, bay leaves, and some oil. They cooked the chopped meat in the kettle like that for four to five hours. They when it was tender deglaze the kettle with brandy. The end result was a thick sauce and not a stew. The flavor was subtle and not over powering. Each helping was garnished with fresh coriander leaves and served with potatoes. Everyone left full and buzzed on mulled wine. It was pretty cool to experience a different hunting culture.
