I do love a good wellington. That looks delicious

Looks good

Always difficult I think to get the balance between pastry being cooked and venison being pink. Did one last night and pastry was done but so was venison …overcooked!

Have to say yours looks better than the one in the link

That looks delicious

Id think that starting off with. High temp and dropping it after a few minutes would get around the overcooked venison issue, but would take better qualified advice than mine

Is that fallow ?

That looks terrific! We had it for Christmas dinner last year and plan on having it again this year. Will try this recipe too!

It's roe actually, but I took two loins* next to each other (explaining how big it looks)

One of our guests asked for a slice of tiger loaf and got a tasty surprise! ,

Think you mean loins , rather than haunches !

I was just sorting out some haunches so got muddled, thanks for picking bring it out! Corrected now

Have a look at this though . Food for thought with a roe haunch?

Fantasic way to do it , hard to get spot on for the average cook

Can't go wrong with the BBC Good Food Recipes, use them all the time myself. I tried that same recipe last Xmas with two Fallow loins. Worked a treat, but I tend to cook slightly less than the recommended time/lb, as I am always surprised how little cooking venison needs.

Must say I'm tempted to get one of those 'MEAT' Bluetooth thermometers to remove the guess work.
