Venison Chilli
Here is a link to a recipe I've made at least four times now. https://www.missallieskitchen.com/venison-chili/
It's really well balanced, complex, and is a great way to use up mince.
This recipe also lends itself well to being dehydrated, venison being naturally low in fat. I typically do a big batch and dehydrate most of it plus a couple meals in the fridge. The only addition I make to the recipe is a few slices of bread or breadcrumbs as I've heard this helps with rehydration. I was originally using a dehydrator, but have found a couple oven trays, on fan bake around 70 degrees works fine. Just need to make sure to turn every hour or so to break up clumps.
Here is a recent batch dehydrated and ready for storage. I usually bag in small snaplock bags in around 100g lots, then mix with dehy mash or 2min noodles on the hill. I store them in the freezer for long-term storage. Cheaper than your average back country or similar and always feels better eating produce of a previous hunt to fuel the next.

Nice one. Looks like it’s got a touch of bite.Will go nicely with the last lot of bread baked.

Be keen to hear if you rate it

It was good, we all enjoyed it. Not revolutionary perhaps, but a tasty chilli. I reckon we'll make it again. I did drop the heat way back for the kids, and about half the listed amount of salt is right for my taste (and I like salt!).
Thanks for posting it up :thumbsup:

Good stuff.
It's a versatile option I find. I made some wraps with chilli, cheese and aioli for lunch today. Was tasty. Got me thinking I should be taking wraps and a few condiments on the next hunt.

Chilli, rice and sour cream is my comfort food!

That's a co-incidence, I was picking up some of my smallgoods from the Back Ridge Butcher the other day and he had a dehydrator full of exactly that mix working away. Was gonna take it on a roar hunt. The economics are infinitely better than commercial dehy packs.
