with 2 moose in the freezer this year and still some from our last moose - I have had to really get moving on sorting through more of my recipe cards
Stuffed Moose Chops
6 Moose chops, cut 1 1/4" to 1 1/2 " thick
1 1/2 cups garlic croutons
1/2 cup apple, chopped
1/2 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
2 Tbsp. dried currents
2 Tbsp. Butter, melted
2 Tbsp. orange juice
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut a pocket in the side of each Moose chop. Mix together the croutons, apple, cheese and currants. In another bowl, combine melted butter, orange juice, salt and cinnamon. Pour butter mixture over the crouton mixture and mix gently. Lightly stuff the Moose chops with the butter-crouton mixture. Place the stuffed chops in a shallow baking pan and bake uncovered for 1 hour. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for another 15 minutes.
