Very professional butchery - hats off to your Sir !:tiphat:
Like the Bay and Rosemary touch - I have never seen Bay Leaves used with Venison before will try next time (hopefully this month ) when I bag a Fallow.:hind:😍
Cheers for the compliment. Yes, I often use lots of bay leaves with the fallow venison, I’m fortunate enough to have a few big bay trees in our garden. I use fresh leaves, roasted or In stew ( used sparingly in stews and sauces etc) but roasted dishes or pan fried you can use a good bunch, i also use a good sized amount of bay in marinades etc. i like Rosemary bay and thyme, a nice combination. Try stabbing a roasting joint and sticking bits of garlic and fresh bay in there, very nice indeed.
Given that the fallow deer was brought to the Uk by the Romans , i think that bay leaves are historically relevant to the cooking of fallow deer too as they loved their bay leaves. Walnuts work very nicely too - walnut trees were also brought to the Uk by the Roman troops.
Hope you get a nice buck later this month that isn’t all rutty .
Kindest regards, Olaf

Having got some roe backstrap and a partridge out of the freezer, mrs bfltd0 made a venison and partridge pie with onions and mushrooms, with a beef stock and red wine sauce. Add a whole sweet potato and some green beans. Top off with a Mendoza Malbec. One photo with the sauce, one without. Needless to say, it all went!
