Country Fried Elk/Deer (Wild Game) Steak
- 4 -6 steaks
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup dry breadcrumbs
- 3 eggs
- 2 -3 tablespoons vegetable shortening
- 3 teaspoons lemon pepper
- 3 teaspoons kc masterpiece barbecue seasoning or 3 teaspoons season salt
- First, Thaw your steaks.
- Then use a meat tenderizer to hammer the steaks on both sides.
- If you don't have a tenderizer you can use a knife and hit the steak in a parallel hatching pattern, then cross hatch them, on both sides.
- (BE CAREFUL!)
- Set aside.
- Second, set out your 3 medium bowls.
- In the first one put 1 cup flour, and 3 tsp of lemon pepper and mix.
- The second bowl is your beaten eggs.
- The third bowl will be 1 cup of breadcrumbs mixed with your barbecue seasoning/season salt.
- Next, put a large skillet on the stove.
- Melt your 2 to 3 TBSP of vegetable Shortening on medium low.
- (You will want to start with your thickest Steak and end with your thinnest.)
- Take a steak with your fingers (if you don't mind globby fingers) or a set of tongs, and dredge it in the flour mixture on all sides.
- Then dredge it in the egg mixture (all sides) followed by the breadcrumb mixture.
- Carefully place in the skillet.
- Repeat this process until all steaks are in the skillet.
- Cook for approximately 6 minutes on each side.
- Check the center of your thickest steak with a knife before removing them from the heat.
- It should be just slightly pink or medium well done.
- (Its not a good idea to under or overcook wild game) Place the steak on a paper towel covered serving platter (to absorb the excess oil).
- Serve hot and enjoy!
