elk_italian-hearts_03 elk_italian-hearts_02

Preparation

Marinade Instructions

  1. In a large pot, whisk together the fresh orange juice, chardonnay, maple syrup, sea salt, bay leaves, whole cloves and black peppercorns. Bring the mixture to a boil; reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 15 minutes. Transfer the brine to a large bowl. Cool the mixture completely in the refrigerator or do what I call a ‘quick cool’ by placing it the freezer for about an hour.
  2. Cut the tenderloin in half; place the two pieces in a deep baking dish and our the marinade into the over the meat. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Agrodolce Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, add the cumin, sweet smoked paprika, dried oregano, cinnamon and chipotle, whisk to combine and set aside for now.
  2. To a blender, add the Italian Hearts Val’s Vegetarian Pasta Sauce, the Dijon and fig balsamic; blend until pureed and set aside.
  3. Preheat a large pot over medium-high heat; add the oil and swirl it around the pan. Add the minced shallots; sauté until just opaque. Add the cranberries, sauté until they being to change color and soften slightly. Pour the contents of the blender into the pot, stirring as you pour. Stir in the cranberry juice concentrate, port wine and chili spice mix.
  4. Bring the pot to a bubble, reduce the heat to simmer and allow the sauce to reduce by about half.

Loin Instructions

  1. Remove the loin from the refrigerator; transfer it to a serving platter and dry it thoroughly with paper towels. It’s imperative that the loin is bone-dry for even browning.
  2. To truss the loin: Start with a piece of kitchen twine about four times the length of the loin. Place the loin presentation side down; starting at one end, using one end of the twine, loop the twine under the loin and tie a knot on the side facing you. Imagine a line down the center of the loin length-wise. Trail the twine down that imaginary line about a half inch. Hold the twine there and loop the twine under the loin and through the piece you are holding creating an ‘H’ with the twine. Pull the twine tight and repeat this process until the entire loin is trussed; tie it off with a knot. Trussing ensures even cooking of the loin.
  3. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Preheat a large pan over high heat; add the olive oil and swirl it around the pan. Using tongs, place the loin in the pan and sear until golden on all sides. Transfer the loin to a broiler pan and place in the center of the oven for about 25 minutes or until the meat thermometer reaches 130°F – 140°F. Any higher meat temperature will dry out this lean cut; this internal temperature will create a beautiful medium rare piece of meat.
  4. Remove the loin from the oven and cover it with a piece of tin foil to rest. Decorate a serving platter with thyme sprigs. Snip the twine off the loin; transfer it to a serving platter and spoon some of the sauce on top. Transfer the rest of the sauce to a serving bowl for the table.
  5. Serve and enjoy!

By: Christian Christensen | Süp

bison_sup

Ingredients

Bison

  • 4 pieces Durham Ranch Bison Osso Bucco
  • 4 tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 2 Cups beef stock
  • Salt and Pepper

Korean BBQ Sauce

  •  ¼ Cup of soy sauce
  • ¼ Cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp. fish sauce
  • ¼ tsp. chili flakes
  • 2 Tbsp. fresh minced ginger
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh minced lemongrass
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh minced garlic
  • 1 Tbsp. red miso
  • 1 tsp. sesame oil
  • 1 Tbsp. black sesame seeds
  • 1 Tbsp. lime juice

Ponzu steamed baby bok choy

  •  1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 4 baby bok choy sliced in half
  • ¼ Cup ponzu

Fried Jasmine Rice

  • 2 Cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil 1 tsp. sesame oil
  • ¼ Cup small diced carrots
  • 1 tsp. minced garlic
  • 1 tsp. minced ginger
  • 1 egg
  • 3 Tbsp. soy sauce
  • 1 tsp. sriracha
  • 1 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh green onions

Marinated Cucumber

  •  ½ cucumber sliced very thin
  • ¼ of a red onion sliced very thin
  • 2 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp. sesame oil
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp. black sesame seeds

Preparation

  1. For this recipe I use a pressure cooker for the osso bucco then finish it in a hot oven. The pressure cooker gets this cut fork tender in 40 minutes so you could easily do osso bucco on a week night. While it is cooking, you can prepare the cucumber and fried rice.
  2. The Korean BBQ sauce is simply combining all the ingredients and mixing well.
  3. Pat the shanks dry then season lightly with salt and pepper. In a large heavy sauté pan, heat the oil and sear all sides of the shanks, place them in the pressure cooker. Deglaze the pan with the beef stock and half of the Korean BBQ sauce and bring it to a simmer. Add the liquid to the pressure cooker, cover and lock. You will cook on high pressure for 40 minutes then turn off and let the pressure come down on it’s own for 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 425°F.Release the remaining pressure and place the shanks in an oven safe pan. Spread the BBQ sauce over the meat and cook for 6-8 minutes, should have a nice sticky glaze.
  4. For the fried rice, heat a large saute pan over high heat. Add the oils and bring to a shimmer. Add carrots and saute until tender. Add cooked rice, ginger, and garlic and fry until hot and slightly crunchy, 3-5 minutes. Push the rice to the side of the pan and in the middle, crack the egg and scramble. Work the rice and egg together, add remaining ingredients and stir well.
  5. The cucumber and onion should be sliced thin, a mandolin works well. Add all the ingredients in a bowl and stir occasionally.
  6. Baby bok choy. Slice them in half then heat a sauté pan over high heat. Add the oil until it shimmers then add the bok choy sliced side down. Sauté for 2-3 minutes then add the ponzu and toss together.
