I happen to know a guy who was lucky enough to draw an elk tag this year. If you're wondering what to do with that liver... might I suggest pate de campagne.
Differences:
-- I used 2lbs elk liver, 3/4 to 1 lb of pork butt with heavy fat cap.
-- I did not use any pink salt (just didn't have any on hand)
-- added dates in addition to cherries
Stop leaving that liver in the woods! (Or at least give it to me.)
Broke out some duck last night and my son got to finally chow down on his wood duck from this season. Also a mallard thrown in. Perfectly cooked by my s/o as usual. Started on the stovetop and finished in the oven. Perfect medium rare with a blackberry vinaigrette drizzle.
Bill that looks great! May I offer one suggestion? Try putting the sauce on the plate and duck on top. That way the sauce doesn’t soften the crispy skin.
