How to Cook the Perfect Venison Steak | Wild British Game

Venison steak is lean, flavourful, and packed with nutrients. To enjoy its rich taste and tender texture, the key is cooking it just right. Here’s the complete guide to achieving the perfect wild venison steak.

Choose the Right Cut

The best cuts for steaks are the loin or haunch. Bring the meat to room temperature before cooking, trim any silver skin, and pat dry.

Preparation Tips

Rub the steak lightly with olive oil and season generously with salt and cracked black pepper. Optional additions: garlic or fresh rosemary for aroma.

Searing and Cooking

Heat a heavy skillet until it is smoking hot. Sear the steak for 90 seconds to 2 minutes per side for medium rare. Avoid overcooking, as venison is very lean.

Rest and Serve

Let the steak rest for 5–7 minutes to lock in juices. Slice against the grain and serve with seasonal vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a berry based sauce.

Pro Tip

Don’t crowd the pan, cook in batches if needed.
