How to cook Moose Steak?
Here is how I Barbeque mine.

Cooking a Moose Steak is as easy as cooking a beef steak except for the initial preparation.

Start by defrosting your Moose T-bone Steak in the refrigerator. My first recommendation Do Not defrost in the microwave as this can make your meat tough.

I am always careful to remove the silver skin and gristle from moose steaks, in order to fully enjoy these wonderful pieces of moose meat. Our experience has shown that if there is any gamey flavor to the meat, most if not all of it will be removed by eliminating the silver-skin. We eat quite a few steaks throughout the summer and really enjoy them.

Prepare and cook your steaks cut from from moose as though you were cooking beef. Be careful that you do not overcook the steaks... really this advice goes for all moose meat, or you run the risk of making the meat tough.

Steak Serving Suggestion

Moose T-bone Steak :

Ingredients:

• 1 T-bone steak per person (these steak are usually large, therefore you might want to split one between two people)
• Salt and Pepper Rub

Directions:

• Preheat Barbeque to medium high heat
• Grease grill with trimmed fat and discard
• Place Moose T-bone Steak on grill and cook for approximately 4 minutes or until juices start to form on surface
• Just before turning, sprinkle steak with salt and pepper rub.
• Do Not Over Cook, overcooked wild game meat will be very tough
• Turn Steak over and cook for 4 minutes more. (If you are unsure as to the doneness of steak, it is advisable to use a meat thermometer)
• Sprinkle side two with salt and pepper rub

This timing should get your moose steak very close to rare, if you prefer your meat to be med or well just add a little more time to each side. Timing is based on a 3/4 inch thick steak.

Serve with Baked Potato and Salad,
and Don’t expect leftovers.

Enjoy

Moose meat is naturally low in fat, and because it comes from the wild it contains no harmful chemicals or hormones. Moose meat is so low in fat that you often have to add some to prevent it from being dry. When we process our moose meat we do not add any fat to our mince, choosing instead to add fat when cooking as needed.
