Moose Steak Marinades

[IronNoggin]

Having a Dinner Party on Tuesday, and I am to provide moose steaks for the Crew.
I generally don't marinade moose steaks, as I prefer the taste of the meat.
But, a couple of folks have hinted they might want me to try something a little different this time around...

Young moose (2.5 years) so already fairly tender...

So... Whatcha Got? Anything that is Tasty / Recommended??

Wondering...

just finished cutting a couple loins for the 'non-hunting public'.

oil
franks
dijon
garlic
mtrl steak spice
soya sauce

should work fine, use what's in the fridge. Gatehouse had a great thread on here a couple years ago for a roast as well.

not really on overnight type marinade, just do it a couple hours ahead to give it some flavour.

1 tbs olive oil
1 clove garlic
1 tbs worchester

Took that advice to Heart GoatMan!

Here's what I came up with for tonight's Gathering:

Simply using what I had on hand, here's what I came up with. Note this is for TEN steaks, so would have to adjust accordingly for smaller lots...

Marinade Ingredients:

Just a tad better then 1/2 cup of Olive Oil
2 Tblsp High End Balsamic Vinegar
3 Tblsp Dry Mustard
1.5 Tblsp Onion Powder
2 Tblsp Garlic Plus Spice
1 Tblsp Marjoram
1 Tblsp Lemon Juice
1.5 Tblsp Montreal Steak Spice
2 Garlic Cloves Finely Chopped

Mix all ingredients in large bowl. Nuke for 1.5 minutes to mix flavors, then paint onto steaks. Makes a fairly thick paste type marinade, so work it well to ensure coverage.

Here's what the steaks looked like before hitting the fridge overnight:

Looks good noggin. I usually just use olive oil, garlic and steak spice then throw on some finishing salt when they are cooked and resting.
Good ol' Italian salad dressing works well too.

its too late now but before i marinade wild game i soak it in MILK overnight. Drain, then add marinade for 8-16 hrs. This works especially well with birds but also with steaks to ensure tenderness melt in mouth cut like butter.

[IronNoggin]

Hmmm... May just have to try that idea out next time around DLP! :wink:

The steaks were a HIT & a Half! Even though I made a little too much, there wasn't a single scrap to be found once the chewing was wrapped up! DELICIOUS!!

I'd give them beef and save the Moose for people that appreciate it! A lot cheaper too! :) K

Just searched "steak marinade" and found this string - will be trying the milk soak sometime after mrs goes to sleep! Folks recommend 2% or other? Rest of string pretty cosistent with my marinades although I like to add cheap red wine, little lemon juice and some Rosemary as science has justified my feeding the family 2+ Steak meals of elk/moose a week (not counting burger meals) without serious health issues of lots of red meat.

just wondering if anybody has any 'crazy' sounding but delicious marinades? I'd like to expand the kitchen abilities and maybe surprise buddy's when we're entertaining.

Here's one I came across this year, I can't take credit for it, it came from a lady in AK.

*1/3 cup soy sauce
* 1/2 cup olive oil
* 1/3 cup lemon juice
* 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
* 1 tablespoon garlic powder
* 3 tablespoons dried basil
* 1 tablespoon dried parsley
* dash of pepper

Let them soak for about 6 hrs, don't rinse off the marinade, in fact brush it on while bbq'ing like you would bbq sauce. Nummy!

never fails. I use the same one as above and have for years. more like MMMMMM!
