Thanksgiving Venison
Thanksgiving is almost here. We always make a venison roast as well as a turkey. Cranberries go great with venison meat; the tartness of the berries is a nice compliment with the sweetness of the deer. Last year I discovered an fantastic Cranberry-Orange Relish that I served with my venison steaks. Click here to make it.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Venison Steaks with Cranberry Orange Relish
Venison goes beautifully with any sort of berry. In the winter, I especially like to experiment with cranberry dishes. This year, I had a HUGE box of oranges that I gotten for a fundraiser, and was madly thinking of things I could do with them before they went bad. I came upon this cranberry and orange relish, paired it with venison steaks, and was very, very happy.
Recipe: Cranberry and Orange Relish
Instructions
- Wash the cranberries and scrub the orange. Quarter the orange and remove seeds (leave the peel on). Put cranberries and orange in a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Stop and scrape down sides of bowl, if necessary, to chop evenly. Add the ginger paste and agave necter, taste to adjust the sweetness as desired. Stir well and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Quick Notes
You can freeze the relish for up to 2 months. Makes about 2 1/2 cups.
Variations
You can use 1 cup of white sugar instead of agave nectar.
