Wild Venison Whole Loin

A beautifully tender piece of lean venison, the loin can be cut into smaller steaks or cooked whole.
You can't beat loin served pink with a slightly sweet, fruity accompaniment in our opinion.

Roasted Whole Venison Loin
Ingredients:
- 1 whole venison loin
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 tablespoon dried)
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped (or 1 tablespoon dried)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup red wine (optional, for deglazing)
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Prepare the Marinade:
- In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
-
Marinate the Loin:
- Rub the marinade all over the whole venison loin, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour at room temperature or up to overnight in the refrigerator for deeper flavour.
-
Sear the Loin:
- In a large, oven-safe skillet or roasting pan, heat a little olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Once hot, sear the venison loin on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. This step helps develop a nice crust.
-
Roast the Loin:
- Transfer the skillet or pan to the preheated oven. Roast for about 20-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F to 135°F (54°C to 57°C) for medium-rare.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature for the best results.
-
Deglaze the Pan (Optional):
- Once the loin is done, remove it from the oven and transfer it to a cutting board to rest for 10 minutes.
- While it rests, place the skillet back on the stovetop over medium heat. Add red wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits. Let it simmer for a few minutes until reduced, creating a flavourful sauce.
-
Slice and Serve:
- After resting, slice the venison loin into medallions, about 1/2-inch thick.
- Serve with the pan sauce drizzled over the top. Pair with sides like roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
