Game day appetizers are one of my favorite things, and buffalo wings are one of my favorite indulgences. I wondered if I could make them with venison instead of chicken (wingless, of course). The result was a very tasty, although slightly messy, treat. A word of warning…use parchment paper otherwise they will stick to the baking sheet and won’t look very pretty (although they’ll taste great)!

Summary: spicy and tender Buffalo tenders with venison rather than chicken

Ingredients

12 ounces venison steak, cut into 2-inch pieces
1/2 cup Louisiana hot sauce
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Marinate the venison in the hot sauce for Â½ hour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place parchment paper on a baking sheet.
In a baggie, mix together flour, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Shake the venison pieces with the seasoned flour.
