DEERBURGERS

2 lbs ground venison
1/4 lb ground beef fat
1 chopped onion
4 slices of fresh bread broken into small pieces
Seasoning (what ever kind preffered)

Mix the venison, fat, onion, and bread. Add seasoning. Make into patties and fry or broil as for hamburgers

FRIED LIVER

Use and electric knife, if availale, to cut frozen liver into thin slices. Fry in hot pan in which you have cooked your bacon. Turn it only once. Don't cook too much as it gets tough. A little onion salt tops it off. Check the latest information on eating venison with your DNR or Conservation Department.

HEART

Cook it in boiling water adding a little salt; allow to cool and slice for sandwiches. If you plan to freeze it, cook it first; it's much better.
NOTE: If you want to save the liver and the heart by freezing, remember to freeze the liver raw, but to cook the heart and then freeze it.
