    @dannyb Looks bloody good mate ,down here on the West Coast l reckon our weird weather of basically drought coming into the Roar & then floods has lead to some of the best eating quality Venison l have ever had ,we run cattle & sheep but have nearly been living on it .

    When I first saw the packs, I thought they were brains, I love lambs brains poached, sliced then fried in butter on toast with vegemite. Then I realised they were sausages. I like sausages as well incase you were wondering. (-:

    Doesn't look much, but it's steamed pork ribs with preserved black bean (and mushrooms plus a few slices of chilli)

    Had with rice and some green stuff.

    Tasted amazing. Just about like the yum char lunch option.

    Easy as to, the biggest issue is getting a steamer big enough. In this case, it was a electric wok with lid, to fit the small roasting dish in.

    Last nights meal: Sika brisket and fat meaty bits, boiled up with Mutton Sorrel and Puha, spuds and kumera. Might not look like much but simply delicious.

    That looks mean. What stew base? Venny necks are the single most underrated cut imo.

    Fried Onions,carrots, neck chops then swede, parsnips. 1 x beef oxo, 1 x lamb oxo, jar of last years tomato pasta sauce, mixed herbs put in towards the end along with some maize flour for thickening. Cooked on top of lady kitchener fire place all day. Neck chops usually first eaten due to after skinning I saw the neck off to give more room in my shade cloth sock used to cover deer with when hanging, to stop those pesky flies.

    Do you just boil the meat and the vegetables together? Is sorrel that stuff that takes over my garden bed and tastes like lemon?

    Yes thats sorrel it has a sort of spear or arrow head shaped leaf. Its bloody delicious. I don't know the method for the stew but suspect it's a bit like boil up ie veggies go in after the meat has a good head start and the puha and sorrel only get a few minutes at the end like water cress.

    @tamamutu Yeh we love slow cooked Venison casserole using neck chops as well ,l have been shoulder shooting deer for years as l prefer to sacrifice a shoulder for dog tucker over losing neck chops any day.

    Thats the stuff , Sheep sorrel is it's more correct name, first time I have tried it in a boil up. Normally use Puha, watercress, cabbage, silverbeet or spinach. Depends whats available. Fatty cuts of meat tend to be the best like brisket, ribs or flank. I go against the norm and put 1/2 the greenery in first with the meat on top, when i figure the meat is nearly done in go the potatoes " waxy ones not the floury mashing ones" then put the remaining greenery in with kumera and pumpkin. If you want to go all out, dumplings on top work a treat. Check out Gonjura Mutton recipes, then you can rid your garden of sorrel and enjoy some of your scrummy goat.
