    Venison cheek confi

    This is an interesting way to cook the tougher cuts, some also call it oil poaching but confi sounds fancy It tastes awesome and is very moist.
    This is the basic version, feel free to change it however you want to your own tastes.

    Ingredients:

    1 venison cheek (or any other tough cut really)
    Olive oil
    Butter
    Peppercorns
    Garlic
    Rosemary
    Salt

    Wash and dry the meat thoroughly, place in a pot and cover in the oil with about 50g of butter as well, add 8 cloves of garlic, a big handful of fresh rosemary, a tsp of peppercorns and a tablespoon of salt.

    Put on the smallest hob you have on the lowest heat it will go, and leave it for 4 hours. It should bubble a little bit but very gently, in my case mine got too hot so i stuck a frying pan underneath to reduce the heat. A slow cooker is perfect but i didn't have one.

    4 hours later and you have an awesome, awesome tender and juicy cheek and the most awesome smelling kitchen ever

    Enjoy!

    Bloody hell Angus when I think of all the heads that have been biffed! I am worried that you will come up with a recipe for bollocks or udders next.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
