Venison? You Mean Deer!

It is a cloudy, cold Sunday afternoon. There are a couple good football games on and I have spent the morning getting ready to curl up and watch the games. I am making meatball subs for supper with some of the meat from this fall's deer hunting season. I will serve the subs with fries and call it game food.

Venison Meatballs
1 t onion powder
1 T Italian seasoning
1/2 t garlic powder
1 cup bread crumbs
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 pound ground venison
3/4 cup water
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup ketchup
1/3 cup barbecue sauce
1 tablespoon ground mustard

In a bowl, combine the first four ingredients. Crumble venison over mixture and mix well. Shape into 1-1/2-in. balls. Place in a greased 8-in. square baking dish. Combine the remaining ingredients; pour over meatballs.Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees F for 35-45 minutes or until meat is no longer pink.

I made these this morning and refrigerated them until ready to cook them, then I will pour the sauce over them and cook them. Serve with mayo and cheese on hoagie rolls or hot dog buns and have a happy Sunday!
