OK...now that I've got the attention of all you perverts...here's some great recipe's fer ya from the Cookie man that yur sure to enjoy.... I know, I know...it's close to Thanksgivin and all, but see'n as how every other food blog out there has all kinds of Holiday recipe's...I just thought I'd be cantankerous and differant....

Beer Battered Fried Mushrooms

2 or 3 packages of Mushrooms
1 box of Bisquick pancake mix
2 bottles of your favorite beer, one fer you t’drink while yur cookin, and the other fer the batter.

Vegetable or Peanut Oil for deep frying

Wash mushrooms and trim off the hard end of the stems. Pat dry.

Dredge all the mushrooms that you will be deep frying into DRY Bisquick mix…this will help the batter to stay on the mushrooms.

Heat oil in a deep fryer, or deep skillet with enough oil to cover.

Place 2 cups of the Bisquick Mix in a bowl and pour in enough beer so that the resulting mixture is just a touch on the thin side ( so that a little will drip off the mushroom after you’ve coated it.)

Dip each mushroom into the mixture, let excess drip off, and place into heated oil. Fry the mushrooms, until golden brown and drain on paper towels.

NOTE: If’n ya want beer battered fish pieces…do exactly the same procedure only use your fish fillets or pieces….

Marinated Venison Steaks

The great thing about this is that you can marinating yur Venison steaks while yur out huntin fer bambi’s mommy or daddy…

These amounts are for 3 to 4 steaks, but if’n ya got a larger huntin party and more steaks to cook…increase the ingredient amounts appropriately…

1/3 cup of Worchestershire Sauce
1/3 cup of Olive Oil
¾ teaspoon of Onion salt
2 cloves of Garlic, minced
½ teaspoon of black pepper
2 Tablespoons of Lemon Juice

Mix all the above Marinade ingredients and put into a sealable plastic bag. Add yur steaks, seal bag making sure all the meat is coated, and let marinade for 3-5 hours.

When ready to cook, cook on a BBQ grill over hot coals, or a broiler if’n ya have one in the camp kitchen. Only cook for about 4 to 5 minutes a side. Serve and ENJOY!
