Rummaging through my mounds of recipes I discovered this gem, for a very elegant meatloaf.

I take the short ribs out in one piece. bone attached. Coat them with a marinade (your preference)over night. I use olive oil, fresh basil, garlic & soya. BBQ them on HIGH about 12-15 min per side. Make sure you don't over cook them. Slice them like a rack of lamb
Okay flippin thru a few 1,000 recipes I found this very interesting one for venison steaks, I'm think I better try this one and see how it comes out because it has one very strange ingredient, I am thinking this would be a great iron chef recipe if "Peanuts" was the secret ingredient. "reminder: do not try this recipe if you or someone you know has peanut/nut allergies.
PEANUT INFUSED VENISON STEAK
1/2 cup peanut oil
1 Tbsp peanut butter

In a fry pan over medium heat, quickly saute the garlic in the hot oil for about 3 minutes. Add all the remaining ingredients except the steaks. Brush the warmed sauce over the venison steaks, covering both sides, and immediately place steaks on a hot grill. Cook to your satisfaction.
