Insideout Burgers

I've been dying to try this for a while. I've seen it in several food magazines and on cooking shows but was always a little intimidated and was afraid the insides would ooze out.

I was amazed how they turned out


You need.
Ground meat (I used ground venison)
White American Cheese (or your other favorite cheese)
Jalepeno Slices
Crumbled Bacon


I use a hamburger press which works great for making the right size patties.

First make a ball of meat about 1/4 of a pound and divide it in half. Put plastic wrap in the bottom of the hamburger press. Put one of the balls in and flatten it with the top of the press. top with 2 thin slices of cheese, bacon crumbles and 2-5 cut up jalepeno slices. Put the other ball of meat on top and press flat.
Grill on the pit or you could fry it in a skillet. Serve with your favorite side. I think it should have been accompanied by homemade french fries, but we had to much fun cooking and ran out of time so it was mac-n-cheese!

Stuffed Venison Steaks




You will need:
2 tenderized steaks, I used venison ham steaks
10 pieces of bacon
1 box of cornbread stuffing


Preheat oven to 350 and cook the stuffing according to the box. Let cool.


Spread a thin layer over the entire steak.


Roll up jellyroll style and secure with a toothpick. Take the bacon strips and wrap around using a toothpick to secure each peice. About 5 peices per steak.


Fry the entire roll until bacon is almost done. About 8-10 minutes.


Transfer to baking dish and bake for 20-30 minutes.Serve with leftover stuffing. Peas are optional!! I do not like peas but I eat them for Steve :)
