This easy appetizer is a crowd-pleaser every time, including squeamish women.

Best cut of venison you have, but any will do.
dijon mustard
mayonnaise (olive oil flavour preferred )
coarse sea salt
red pepper
olive oil
garlic cloves
baguette
beer (optional but encouraged)

-slice-dice-chop garlic and mix into small bowl of olive oil, let sit to infuse
-cut venison into manageable pieces of consistent thickness
-Salt all sides as much as you want
-lather all sides in dijon mustard as much as you want
-heat oil in cast iron pan
-sear venison all sides, cook no further than rare
-remove venison from heat and let it setup for at least 15 min
-(I prefer to take it right to room temp.)

-slice red pepper into manageable pieces

-slice baguette into desired thickness
-lather on garlic infused olive oil 1x side
-toast in oven until just golden brown to avoid shredding roof of mouth
-remove from oven and arrange on plate

-apply 1x pc venison 1x pc. red pepper and dollop of mayo in any style you like
-eat 5x yourself ASAP
-serve to others
-receive praise while wife cleans up after you.

Overcooked it due to drinking, it was worth it.

At this point my wife has taken over while I regail our guests with tall tales and continue to drink.

Best part of the story!

I've found that a good cut marinated in red wine with coarse black pepper and then BBQ'ed (with a sprinkle of sea salt) to NO MORE than medium my favourite way to do venison.

But this, I'll have to try. Thanks.
