Recipes so Easy, Even a Caveman Could Make Them: Roast Beast

 

If life hands you a beast, roast it.  

Ingredients:

Dry rub (equal parts paprika, sea salt, black pepper, cumin, and ground mustard with a pinch of cinnamon)

Venison ham (approx 15lbs)

1 large onion (sliced into rings)

BBQ sauce (recipe can be found here)

6 tbsp butter (divided into 1tbsp pats)

2 tbsp sour cream (optional, I used organic/pastured sour cream by Wallaby brand)

Step 1: Dry Rub

Rub dry rub all over the roast and cover it with plastic wrap.  Let it get happy in the fridge overnight.

Step 2: Low and Slow

Put your roast in an 250 degree oven for 2 hours to seal in all the goodness.

 

Step 3: Get Saucy

Remove the roast from the oven and slather it with sauce.  Cover the top of the roast with onions and put a down some pats of butter just for the heck of it.  Wrap the roast in foil and put back into the oven for an additional 6-12 hours.

Step 4: Carve

After the roast has finished cooking, simply remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 min.  Then, get carving.  I recommend cutting across the grain for a more toothsome bite.

 

Step 5: Serve

I took a big plate of roast beast and onions, dolloped a wallop of sour cream on top,  and served it up with a side of Eggplant Frites.
